Abstract
In a drive force control method for a four-wheel drive vehicle using an estimated drive torque for the control, a delay element is added to a value for the estimated drive torque at the trailing edge thereof. With this control, the behavior of the four-wheel drive vehicle is stabilized when a depression force applied to an accelerator pedal is removed.
