A vehicle control device includes an accelerator pedal adjusted in degree of operation, thereby adjusting power generated by an engine as a power source when running a vehicle. In the vehicle control device, in order to enhance fuel economy more reliably, fuel cut is carried out when the degree of operation of the accelerator pedal is other than zero, that is, when an accelerator is not fully opened and the vehicle is decelerating, the fuel cut that is the control in which supply of fuel used for operating the engine is stopped. Thus, even if the accelerator is not fully closed, a quantity of fuel injected by a fuel injector, and hence fuel consumption can be reduced. Accordingly, fuel economy can be enhances more reliably. |
