A vehicle control system is provided with a first driving force control means that controls a turning performance of a vehicle by controlling a driving force delivered from a prime mover to driving wheels so as to adjust the turning condition of the vehicle to an intended turning condition. The first driving force control means is configured to calculate a correction amount of the driving force required to adjust an actual turning condition of the vehicle to the intended turning condition, and to restrict the correction amount to zero or smaller so as not to increase the driving force if the correction amount is positive value.

A method of controlling driving of a vehicle which performs torque command tracking control includes distributing a required torque command to a left wheel torque command and a right wheel torque command, correcting each of the distributed torque commands using the differential control amount according to a vehicle driving mode and steering input information, and then controlling torque applied to the wheel based on the torque command after correction.

A vehicle includes an engine, a first motor generator, a second motor generator, a transmission, a differential device, and an electronic control unit. The transmission includes an input shaft, an output shaft, and a clutch. The electronic control unit is configured to detect a rotation speed difference between the input shaft and the output shaft when the clutch is controlled so as to be brought into a power transmission shut-off state. The electronic control unit is configured to, when the rotation speed difference detected by the electronic control unit is smaller than a target rotation speed difference between the input shaft and the output shaft that occurs in a case where the power transmission shut-off state of the clutch is established, suppress cranking of the engine by the first motor generator.

A vehicle control system comprising a speed control system and a traction control (TC) system, the TC system being operable to cause a reduction in speed of one or more wheels when a speed of the one or more wheels exceeds a TC system intervention threshold value, the speed control system being operable in an active state in which the speed control system causes the vehicle to operate in accordance with a target speed value, wherein when the speed control system is in the active state, the TC system intervention threshold value is set to a value selected in dependence at least in part on the target speed value.

A motor control device for an electric vehicle, which includes a power transmission path configured such that an output of a first motor and an output of a second motor are, respectively, transmittable to left and right wheels of the vehicle via a differential mechanism, includes a non-interference correction part for predictively correcting an output from a first motor control part or a second motor control part to an opposite motor to a motor performing vibration suppression correction via the power transmission path, such that a change in motor output by a vibration suppression correction torque amount cancels an interference torque interfering with a motor output of the opposite motor.

Implementations described herein relate to leveraging corresponding streams of speed readings of a vehicle generated by different speed sensors of different computing devices to automatically determine an updated tire size of tires of the vehicle. For example, while a user of the vehicle is driving, a first stream of speed readings can be generated by a vehicle speed sensor of an in-vehicle computing device of the vehicle and a second stream of speed readings can be generated by a mobile speed sensor of a mobile computing device of the user of the vehicle. Processor(s) can obtain the different streams of speed readings from the different computing devices and process the different streams using various operations to determine the update tire size of the tires of the vehicle. The updated tire size can be subsequently utilized to update operational parameter(s) of the vehicle that influence how the vehicle operates.

A vehicle control system according to various embodiments can include a control unit that receives data from a plurality of sensors which monitors an electronic limited slip differential mounted to a vehicle and detects road conditions. A prediction module executed by a processor predicts, based on electronic limited slip differential data and road condition data received by the control unit, a wheel alignment adjustment for the road conditions that the vehicle approaches and encounters along a road and generates a control signal based on the predicted wheel alignment adjustment. A wheel alignment adjustment mechanism, connected to a wheel mounted to the vehicle, automatically adjusts the wheel alignment for the wheel in response to the control signal such that at least one of a camber angle, a toe angle, and a caster angle for the wheel is adjusted as the vehicle travels across varying road conditions.
