Abstract

A coasting control device capable of avoiding coasting control during running on road having a small coefficient of friction between a tire and a road surface ('low μ roads') includes a low μ road running recognition unit which recognizes that a vehicle is running on a low μ road and a unit for prohibiting coasting control during low μ road running when the low μ road running recognition unit recognizes that the vehicle is running on a low μ road.
