Abstract:
A vehicle control system comprising:gear ratio control means that controls a gear ratio of a continuously variable transmission equipped in a vehicle; gear ratio calculation means that calculates a command value of the gear ratio of the continuously variable transmission; and torque detection means that detects an input torque to the continuously variable transmission, wherein a gear ratio control unit having a function as the gear ratio control means and at least one functional unit having functions as the gear ratio calculation means and the torque detection means, being different from the gear ratio control unit, are mutually connected through a communication line capable of data transmission, and wherein the gear ratio control means controls the gear ratio of the continuously variable transmission on the basis of a command value of the gear ratio and an input torque which are transmitted to the gear ratio control unit through the communication line from the functional units.
