Abstract
To provide a control device for a vehicle capable of controlling the torque of a drive source so as to appropriately balance the suppression of body vibrations and the securing of a transient response during acceleration or deceleration. This control device for a vehicle includes an accelerator position sensor that detects the accelerator opening, a torque adjustment mechanism such as a throttle valve that adjusts the torque of an engine as the drive source of the vehicle, and a powertrain control module (PCM) that controls the torque adjustment mechanism based on the accelerator opening. The PCM sets the target acceleration of the vehicle based on the accelerator opening, sets the target torsion angle of the drive shaft based on the target acceleration, sets the target torque of the engine based on the target torsion, and controls the torque adjustment mechanism based on the target torque.
