Abstract:
1. A vehicle motion control apparatus which is configured to control a motion of a vehicle, the vehicle comprising a plurality of apparatuses, each of which is configured to selectively control a slip angle or a yaw rate, said vehicle motion control apparatus comprising: a controller which is configured to set a target slip angle as a target value of the slip angle, set a target yaw rate as a target value of the yaw rate, perform behavior control in which the plurality of apparatuses are controlled such that the slip angle and the yaw rate are the set target slip angle and the target yaw rate, respectively, specify a turning state quantity of the vehicle, select at least one of the slip angle and the yaw rate to be prioritized, on the basis of the specified turning state quantity in a case where the behavior control needs to be performed by one of the plurality of apparatuses and control the one apparatus such that the selected one has the target value corresponding to the selected one, in the case where the behavior control needs to be performed by the one apparatus.
