1. A vehicle behavior control apparatus comprising:
- a slip angle difference predicting section for detecting a difference between a slip angle of front wheels and a slip angle of rear wheels;
a steer angle detecting section for detecting a steer angle of the vehicle; and
a control section for detecting vehicle state, based on correlation between an angle, difference signal from said slip angle difference predicting section and a steer angle signal from said steer angle detecting section, and for controlling vehicle behavior based on the vehicle state, said control section including a correcting section for receiving the angle difference signal, said control section also including means for connecting said steer angle signal from said steer angle detecting section to said correcting section.

2. A vehicle behavior control apparatus comprising:
-
a steering torque sensor for detecting a steering torque of a steering system;
an electric motor for applying an assist torque to the steering system;
a control unit having a target torque signal setting section for setting a target torque signal based on a steering torque signal from said steering torque sensor; and
a motor driver for driving said electric motor based on said target torque signal, wherein the vehicle behavior control apparatus further comprises a slip angle difference predicting section for detecting a difference between a slip angle of front wheels and a slip angle of rear wheels, and a steer angle detecting section for detecting a steer angle of the vehicle, and said control unit has a correcting section for correcting said target torque signal based on correlation between an angle difference signal from said slip angle difference predicting section and a steer angle signal from said steer angle detecting section, so as to control turning behavior of the vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (4, 6)
