Abstract
When a vehicle speed is equal to or higher than a first vehicle speed threshold value or an uphill gradient is lower than a first gradient threshold value and uphill start control is cancelled, if a state where the vehicle speed is lower than a second vehicle speed threshold value and the uphill gradient is equal to or higher than a second gradient threshold value continues for a first set time, uphill start control is executed. When the vehicle speed is decreased after being once increased within a range where the vehicle speed is lower than the first vehicle speed threshold value and uphill start control is cancelled, if a state where the vehicle speed is lower than the second vehicle speed threshold value and the uphill gradient is equal to or higher than the second gradient threshold value continues for a second set time, the uphill start control is executed.
