1. A method of controlling a vehicle, comprising:
- detecting, by a controller, input variables including a driving input variable and a turning input variable;
calculating, by the controller, a driving tendency index based on the driving input variable;
calculating, by the controller, a turning degree related to the number of consecutive turnings based on the turning input variable, wherein the turning input variable includes a difference between a left wheel speed and a right wheel speed and a lateral acceleration; and
operating, by the controller, the vehicle based on the driving tendency index and the turning degree.

Abstract
A system and a method of controlling a vehicle using a turning degree are disclosed. The method includes detecting input variables including a driving input variable and a turning input variable and calculating a driving tendency index based on the driving input variable. A turning degree related to the number of consecutive turnings is calculated based on the turning input variable and then the vehicle is operated based on the driving tendency index and the turning degree.
