Abstract

An acceleration/deceleration control apparatus includes a mode switching portion configured to switch a normal mode of performing acceleration control in response to an operation on an accelerator pedal and also performing deceleration control in response to an operation on a brake pedal, and a one-pedal mode of performing both the acceleration control and the deceleration control in response to the operation on the accelerator pedal according to a switching operation performed by a driver. Where a mode is switched from the normal mode to the one-pedal mode, one-pedal instruction switching portion (35B) of the acceleration/deceleration control apparatus outputs such one-pedal acceleration/deceleration instruction value A(Xa) that a result of adding a non-one-pedal acceleration instruction value B1(Xb) for the one-pedal mode and a one-pedal acceleration instruction value Ab(Xa) for the one-pedal mode after the mode is switched matches non-one-pedal deceleration instruction value Bn(xb) for the normal mode before the mode is switched.
