Abstract
In a vehicle driving-force control device, when a brake switch is turned on, a transmission control unit determines a currently-selected engine mode and sets a deceleration determination value by referring to a determination-value table corresponding to the currently-selected engine mode, using a vehicle speed as a parameter. Then, the transmission control unit compares an absolute value of a deceleration with an absolute value of the deceleration determination value, and shifts down the gear stage if the absolute value of the deceleration exceeds the absolute value of the deceleration determination value.
