Driving force control for automotive vehicle

摘要

A driving force control system for an automotive vehicle comprises an ordinary target driving force generator. It determines an ordinary target driving force in response to operator manipulation of the accelerator pedal and vehicle speed. The ordinary target driving force is a predetermined target value of driving force required to keep the vehicle rolling over the surface of a flat road that has 0% gradient. A running resistance increment generator determines an increment in running resistance from a standard resistance that is predetermined for the vehicle. A corrected target driving force generator receives the ordinary target driving force, the vehicle speed and the running resistance increment . It determines corrected target driving force. The corrected target driving force generator restrains the corrected target driving force in response to idle and brake signals from an idle switch and a brake switch.
