An electric vehicle control device, comprising: - a motor provided as a drive source; - an automatic transmission which is disposed between the motor and a driving wheel (RL, RR) and comprises a plurality of shifting elements for switching a plurality of gear stages; - a shift control means which is configured to set the shifting element that is engaged during a gear shift by the automatic transmission as an engagement element, and to set the shifting element that is released as a release element, to execute the gear shift; - a frictional engagement element disposed in a power transmission path between the motor and the driving wheel (RL, RR), and fully engaged or slip-engaged as an element other than a shifting element that is involved in the gear shift of the automatic transmission; - a control means for switching a torque sharing rate which is configured to delay switching the torque sharing rate, which is a sharing rate of transmission torque allocated to the frictional engagement element according to an engagement capacity, during a shift transition period from start to end of the gear shift, until a start of a shifting procedure, and to continuously switch a current gear sharing rate to a subsequent gear sharing rate in accordance with a degree of the shifting procedure when the shifting procedure starts; and - an engagement capacity control means (72, 73) for controlling the engagement capacity of the frictional engagement element during the shift transition period, in accordance with the switched torque sharing rate, wherein the control means for switching the torque sharing rate is configured to use a value obtained by dividing the engagement capacity of the engagement element, which is engaged during a gear shift by an input torque to the engagement element, as an index representing the degree of a shifting procedure, to calculate a torque sharing rate for continuously switching from the current gear sharing rate to a subsequent gear sharing rate. - a motor provided as a drive source; - an automatic transmission which is disposed between the motor and a driving wheel (RL, RR) and comprises a plurality of shifting elements for switching a plurality of gear stages; - a shift control means which is configured to set the shifting element that is engaged during a gear shift by the automatic transmission as an engagement element, and to set the shifting element that is released as a release element, to execute the gear shift; - a frictional engagement element disposed in a power transmission path between the motor and the driving wheel (RL, RR), and fully engaged or slip-engaged as an element other than a shifting element that is involved in the gear shift of the automatic transmission; - a control means for switching a torque sharing rate which is configured to delay switching the torque sharing rate, which is a sharing rate of transmission torque allocated to the frictional engagement element according to an engagement capacity, during a shift transition period from start to end of the gear shift, until a start of a shifting procedure, and to continuously switch a current gear sharing rate to a subsequent gear sharing rate in accordance with a degree of the shifting procedure when the shifting procedure starts; and - an engagement capacity control means (72, 73) for controlling the engagement capacity of the frictional engagement element during the shift transition period, in accordance with the switched torque sharing rate,
