Abstract

See full text

An apparatus controls the steering angle of a pair of front or rear wheels and the braking forces to be applied to left and right wheels of at least one of the wheel pairs. The apparatus includes a control unit for calculating a target value for a dynamic parameter related to a motion of the vehicle based upon sensed vehicle operating conditions. The control unit calculates a target value for the steering angle of the one wheel pair and controls the steering angle to the calculated target value so as to bring the dynamic parameter to its target dynamic parameter value. An absolute value of the target or actual steering angle is calculated for comparison with a predetermined value. The control unit controls the second control unit to provide a difference between the braking forces applied to the left and right wheels of the one wheel pair so as to bring the dynamic parameter to the target dynamic parameter value only when the calculated absolute value exceeds the predetermined value.
