Abstract
An apparatus as an aspect of the invention acquires a vehicle motion index value, a driving state index value of a driver, a driving characteristic value that is estimated based on the vehicle motion index value and the driving state index value, and a vehicle motion target value and a driving state target value that are determined regardless of the driver's driving. Using these values, the apparatus determines a target value of a steering assist torque and a target value of a difference in braking/driving force between right and left wheels that converge at least one of a difference between the vehicle motion target value and the vehicle motion index value and a difference between the driving state target value and the driving state index value. The apparatus controls the steering assist torque and the difference in braking/driving force between the right and left wheels to their respective target values.
