A vehicle cruise control apparatus is provided. The vehicle has an engine 2 mounted thereon, a function of implementing constant-speed-cruise control and transmission control. The apparatus includes demand value computation section 14, engine control section 16, expected value computation section 12, compensation section 18 and AI-shift control section 20. The section 14 computes a demand value required for realizing a target speed. The section 16 adjusts an output of the engine 2 based on the demand value. The section 12 computes an expectation value based on the vehicle driving state and the driver's driving operation state. Based on a vehicle operating state including a comparison result of the demand value and the expectation value, the section 18 selects one of the demand value and the expectation value, and changes gears based on the selected value. As a result, driver's driving operation is prevented from becoming complicated during constant-speed-cruise control.
