Abstract
A vehicle control device includes a control unit configured to execute one of a plurality of assist controls based on an input of an execution command signal that is externally given. The control unit includes a control state switching unit that executes, based on an input state of the execution command signal, switching of a control state to execute the assist control. The control state includes a first control state and a second control state, the control state being switched from one of the first and second control states to the other of the first and second control states based on the input state of the execution command signal. When one control state of the first and second control states is being executed and when execution of the other control state is commanded, the control state switching unit switches the control state such that the other control state is executed.
