Abstract

A vehicle control method may include determining by a controller, a state of a brake pedal wherein a controller is configured to determine during performing an SSC control mode whether a brake pedal is in an ON state; determining, by the controller, overlap of control modes wherein when it is determined in the determining by a controller, a state of a brake pedal that the brake pedal is in the ON state, the controller is configured to determine whether conditions for performing an extended ISG control mode are satisfied; and converting, by the controller, a control mode wherein when it is determined in the determining, by the controller, overlap of control modes that the conditions for performing the extended ISG control mode are satisfied, the controller terminates the SSC control mode being performed and converts the current control mode to the extended ISG control mode.
