Abstract

A vehicle control device includes a sensor and a controller. The sensor detects wheel speed. The controller estimates an amount of pitch motion made by a vehicle based on information in a prescribed frequency range of wheel speed detected by the sensor. The controller control friction brakes so as to bring the pitch motion amount to a target pitch motion amount, as well as gradually lowering an amount by which the friction brakes are controlled, in instances where an estimation accuracy of the pitch motion amount deteriorates.
