Abstract
Provided are a vehicle braking apparatus, a vehicle braking method, and a vehicle braking system, which improve the responsiveness of a braking force of a vehicle. The vehicle braking apparatus includes a braking torque generating mechanism configured to generate a braking torque in a first braking torque imparting portion that imparts a braking torque to a first wheel portion comprising either front or rear wheels of the vehicle and a second braking torque imparting portion that imparts a braking torque in a second wheel portion comprising the other ones of the front and rear wheels. The vehicle braking apparatus further includes a control mechanism configured to output to the braking torque generating mechanism a command for generating the braking force precedentially in the second wheel portion selected according to a condition of a vehicle as a wheel portion in which the braking force should be precedentially generated.
