Abstract
A vehicle braking control apparatus is configured to suppress the effect on the vehicle behavior when braking torque is reassigned between the wheels. The distribution of braking torques is reassigned between the front and rear wheels so as to increase the amount of braking carried out by regenerative braking while maintaining a constant total braking torque. When the frictional braking of the one pair of wheels is reassigned to the regenerative braking of the other pair of wheels, the amount reassigned to left and right of the wheels is adjusted in accordance with the steering angle.
