An automatic/manual traveling changeover switch is capable of switching between an automatic driving mode in which the automatic travel control is carried out by the vehicle travel controller and a manual driving mode in which the driver drives the vehicle manually. A driving posture controller controls a reclining motor so that the reclining angle of the driver's seat in the automatic driving mode is larger than the reclining angle of the driver's seat in the manual driving mode.
