A vehicle turning efficiency improving apparatus is applicable to an automotive vehicle of a type equipped with either a braking system or a driving train, which is capable of performing a braking force control or a driving force control separately on vehicle wheels and a steering mechanism configured to steer the left and right vehicle wheels separately. A control unit is provided for performing a turn assist control, in which a time difference is generated in steering operation of the left and right vehicle wheels and at least one of a braking and a driving force difference is generated in the left and right vehicle wheels to thereby generate a yaw moment.
