Vehicle behavior control device
First Claim
1. A vehicle behavior control device for controlling a behavior of a vehicle having steerable front road wheels, an engine or a motor and a steering wheel operated by a driver, the vehicle behavior control device comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory storing one or more programs that, when executed by the processor, cause a generated torque control means to perform control, when a steering speed of the steering wheel is greater than a threshold, to reduce a generated torque of the engine or the motor according to the steering speed of the steering wheel,wherein the generated torque control means is operable to reduce rate of decrease of an amount of the generated torque during decreasing the amount of the generated torque according to the steering speed, as a steering wheel angle of the steering wheel increases.

Abstract
The vehicle behavior control device is designed to control a behavior of a vehicle having steerable front road wheels. The vehicle behavior control device comprises a PCM configured to perform control to reduce a driving force for the vehicle according to a steering speed of the vehicle, wherein the PCM is operable to reduce a change rate during increasing of a reduction amount of the driving force according to the steering speed of the vehicle, to a smaller value, as a steering wheel angle of the vehicle becomes larger.
