A four-wheel drive vehicle provides a torque distribution clutch mechanism which directly transmits the driving force generated from the engine (22) to one of two front wheels (FT1,FT2) or two rear wheels (RT3,RT4), and which transmits it to the other wheels therethrough in order to control the engaging force in accordance with a traveling status of the four-wheel drive vehicle. The vehicle further comprises a tight corner judging means, a normal mode setting means, a low friction road judging means and a tight mode setting means. The tight corner judging means judges whether the vehicle travels at a large turning angle or not, and the normal mode setting means sets a normal mode to control the engaging force when it is judged by the tight corner judging means that the vehicle does not travel at the large turning angle. Further, the low friction road judging means judges whether the vehicle travels on a low friction road or not, and the tight mode setting means for setting a tight mode to control the engaging force in a condition that it is judged by the tight corner judging means that the vehicle travels at the large turning angle when it is judged by the low friction road judging means that the vehicle does not travel on the low friction road. |
