Abstract
In a control system wherein slippage of a vehicle drive wheel is detected and when the slip is excessively large, an engine output or drive wheel torque is reduced, there are provided means for calculating the grip force of the drive wheel and further means for changing the reduction amount of engine output or drive wheel torque, or the reduction speed, or the reduction characteristic dependent on a signal from the grip force calculating means. This enables a sporty travel of a vehicle.
