Abstract
A vehicle running control system includes: a steering apparatus that includes a turning device being mechanically separated from a steering wheel; a vehicle drive unit; and a control device. The control device is configured to execute: a turning processing that controls the turning device such that an actual turning angle of the wheel approaches a target turning angle; a vehicle driving processing that determines a target vehicle driving force according to a required vehicle driving force based on a vehicle driving request and that controls the vehicle drive unit so as to cause an actual vehicle driving force to the target vehicle driving force determined; and where a turning angle difference is greater than a turning angle threshold value in a low vehicle speed condition, a driving force limiting processing that limits the target vehicle driving force so as to become smaller than the required vehicle driving force.
