As provided here, an obstacle warning system for a vehicle is capable of issuing an alarm accurately according to the curved state of a road. When the road is curved, the system sets the correction time counter on the basis of the following conditions: whether or not the curvature radius of the curved road is small; whether or not a guardrail is detected immediately ahead of the vehicle; whether o...

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent an engine brake from disturbing the behavior of a vehicle by judging the effect given to the behavior of the vehicle by the engine brake, and controlling the engine brake based on it. SOLUTION: This vehicle behavior control device 10 considers whether an engine brake gives an effect to a vehicle behavior or not and whether inadvertent acceleration occurs on the veh...

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To surely prevent slip rotation of driving wheels and to prevent a vehicle from moving in restarting. SOLUTION: When automatic stop conditions are established, while rotation of the engine is transmitted to the driving wheels via a torque converter 4, the engine 1 is stopped and, when the restarting conditions are established, a starting electric motor 2 is started to restart...

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a driving force control device of a four-wheel drive vehicle, capable of securing the operability and controllability of the vehicle even in the case of causing the status where the torque transmission responsiveness to a main driving wheel is higher than the torque transmission responsiveness to an auxiliary driving wheel as in starting sudden acceleration while a...

A controller 10 calculates a target drive force based on an accelerator pedal operation amount and a vehicle speed. A delay speed ratio which varies with a delay with respect to the actual speed ratio is calculated by applying a delay process on the actual speed ratio of the transmission 2. While the actual speed ratio is undergoing variation, a target engine torque is calculated by dividing the t...
