<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To control automobile running without isolating a foot from a pedal by setting ranges for a foot rest function and a braking force increasing function to pedal operation quantity and operation force for controlling the braking force and driving force of an automobile and controlling the running of the automobile according to these function ranges. SOLUTION: This automobile is mounted with a brake operation mechanism 2, a transmission 5 including an engine 3 and motor 4, control driving system 8, each of which comprises a plurality of brake devices 6a to 6d, etc., and a control device 9 for controlling them. In this case, for example, a foot rest function range is set to braking quantity. That is, the reaction of a pedal reaction mechanism 20 is set smaller than the brake pedal load, i.e., the foot load applied to a lever 14 between a brake pedal 13 and a rotary shaft 15 by the driver. The reaction of another pedal reaction mechanism 19 is set larger than the brake pedal load. This prevents the generating of a brake force even if the drive put his or her foot on the pedal.</p> |
