Abstract

A control apparatus for a vehicle includes: a first road surface friction coefficient calculator; a second road surface friction coefficient calculator; and a braking and driving force controller. The first road surface friction coefficient calculator calculates a first road surface friction coefficient that is a friction coefficient of a road surface in a contact with a wheel. The second road surface friction coefficient calculator calculates a second road surface friction coefficient on a basis of a detection value from a contactless sensor that contactlessly detects a road surface state.
