Abstract
A motor-driven door latch for a vehicle includes a catch part which is caught on a striker mounted on the vehicle to lock a vehicle door to a vehicle body or is released from the striker so that the door can be opened from the vehicle body. A door locking and releasing part includes a main motor and applies torque to the catch part through the main motor to allow the catch part to be locked to or released from the striker. A collision response part applies torque to the catch part through the door locking and releasing part in order to keep the door in the collision in the locked state and allow the door on the side opposite to the collision to be opened in the event of a collision.
