Abstract
A value correlated with a basic required driving force to be required at re-acceleration is estimated from the deceleration of a decelerating vehicle. A target gear ratio of a CVT is determined from a value obtained by correcting the value correlated with the basic required driving force based on a maximum amount of vehicle speed change at the current time point and an amount of vehicle speed change from the start of a gear ratio control up to the current time point.
