BRAKE LAMP CONTROL DEVICE

摘要

A brake lamp control device calculates a control torque value to be produced by a motor based on vehicle running status information and manipulation status information. The brake lamp control device turns on brake lamps if the control torque value is on the regeneration side of and larger than a predetermined reference regenerative torque value. For example, the reference regenerative torque value is set approximately equal to a deceleration-side torque value of engine braking that would be obtained by cancellation of an accelerator manipulation.
