Claim 0:
1. A vehicle motion control apparatus to be used for a vehicle,
the vehicle including:
a braking force controller and/or a driving force controller configured to adjust braking force and/or driving force when the vehicle is steered; and
a plurality of force generation devices each of which is interposed between a vehicle body of the vehicle and one of a plurality of wheels, and is configured to adjust a force generated between the vehicle body and the one of the plurality of wheels,

the vehicle motion control apparatus comprising a control unit configured to adjust the force of each of the plurality of force generation devices,
wherein the control unit is configured to:
calculate, from a turn state of the vehicle body, a target roll amount being a target; and
estimate, based on a change rate of a lateral acceleration of the vehicle and a yaw moment command value for generating a yaw moment, a roll amount that occurs in the vehicle, and output, to each of the plurality of force generation devices, such a command value that the estimated roll amount approaches the target roll amount.
