Abstract
A vehicle control apparatus includes an electric motor, a source power supply circuit, an electric motor controller, a brake device, a brake controller, a stall determination device, a temperature detector, and a backward-rolling detector. The backward-rolling detector is configured to detect whether a vehicle is rolling backward. If rolling backward of the vehicle is detected by the backward-rolling detector while a brake torque instruction value is being generated, the brake torque instruction value is corrected so that the vehicle stops rolling backward.
