A vehicle sailing stop control method is provided for a vehicle including a friction engagement element disposed between a traveling drive source and drive wheels, a torque converter disposed between the friction engagement element and the traveling drive source, and including a lock-up clutch for which a power transmission amount is controlled based on hydraulic pressure, and a hydraulic pressure source that can supply the hydraulic pressure while the traveling drive source is stopped. The vehicle sailing stop control method includes: performing sailing stop control so that coasting is performed by cutting off power transmission of the friction engagement element and stopping the traveling drive source upon a sailing stop travel condition being established; and, during coasting by the sailing stop control, placing the lock-up clutch in a power transmission state in which the hydraulic pressure is applied to the lock-up clutch.

A lever apparatus includes a lever operated by a user, a biasing member that is a source of an operation reaction force of the lever, and a linkage mechanism configured to link the lever and the biasing member. The linkage mechanism includes a lever-side rotating body pivoted according to pivoting of the lever, and a biasing member-side rotating body engaged with lever-side rotating body and installed closer to the biasing member than the lever-side rotating body. The linkage mechanism varies a ratio of a variation of a rotation angle of the biasing member-side rotating body to a variation of a rotation angle of the lever-side rotating body according to an operation amount of the lever.
