Abstract
In braking/driving force controlling apparatus and method for an automotive vehicle, a state discriminating section discriminates between a parking state in which a manipulation for the vehicle to be parked is carried out and a non-parking state in which no manipulation for the vehicle to be parked is carried out, a controller detects a manipulated variable of a manual input section, generates a constant target vehicle speed corresponding to the detected manipulated variable in a case where the state discriminating section discriminates the parking state, calculates a vehicular braking/driving force for a present vehicle speed to become the target vehicle speed, and controls the vehicular braking/driving force on the basis of the calculated braking/driving force.
