Abstract
A total longitudinal force which is a sum total of the longitudinal forces applied to the plurality of wheels is detected or determined, and the longitudinal forces applied to the wheels are controlled on the basis of a front wheel-side target wheel longitudinal force and a rear wheel-side target wheel longitudinal force determined by distribution of the total longitudinal force at predetermined distribution proportions. When the slipping of a wheel is detected, the distribution proportions are changed, so that the target wheel longitudinal force is larger on one of the front and rear wheel sides in which more wheels are in non-slipping states.
