1. A driving force control apparatus for a vehicle, comprising:
- an accelerator opening sensor that detects an accelerator opening for a vehicle; and
an automatic transmission control device that controls an automatic transmission based on a road information and the accelerator opening, wherein the automatic transmission control device, in an interval prior to a deceleration required interval, controls the automatic transmission so as to ease a shifting operation that corresponds to a decrease in the accelerator opening, and wherein the interval prior to the deceleration required interval begins when a predetermined condition is satisfied.
