Abstract
A vehicle dynamics control device includes a control unit that executes braking/driving torque control based upon vehicle information that includes operation input information and vehicle dynamics information. The operation input information includes a lateral motion operation index pertaining to a lateral motion operation executed to generate a lateral motion in the vehicle; the vehicle dynamics information includes a longitudinal acceleration generated in the vehicle and a lateral motion index indicating a lateral motion occurring in the vehicle; and the control unit determines a handling assurance acceleration limit with a maximum longitudinal acceleration value that assumes a substantially linear proportional relationship with the lateral motion operation index and the lateral motion index over a range in which the lateral motion operation index assumes a value equal to or less than a predetermined value or the lateral motion index assumes a value equal to or less than a predetermined value.
