Abstract
A vehicle turning motion control apparatus includes a turning condition sensor to sense a turning condition of the vehicle; and a controller to start a decelerating control to produce the braking force with a brake actuator when the turning condition surpasses a deceleration start threshold. There is further provided an accelerator operation quantity sensor to sense a driver's accelerator operation quantity. The controller adjusts the deceleration start threshold toward the turning performance limit when the accelerator operation quantity increases, and to start a preload or preliminary pressure control to produce a preload before the deceleration control when the turning condition surpasses a preload start threshold.
