Abstract
A device for controlling a turning behavior of a vehicle detects running speed of the vehicle, calculate a standard performance of the turning behavior of the vehicle substantially according to a steering angle input by a steering system and the running speed of the vehicle, calculates a deviation of the turning behavior from the standard performance in an amount of decrease of vehicle running speed to be effected with the vehicle for compensating the deviation, calculates a target decrease of engine torque for effecting the vehicle running speed decrease, and decreases the engine torque according to the target engine torque decrease.
