Patent ID: 7583036

Claim:
An electrically driven vehicle comprising, a first electric motor for driving a left side wheel, a second electric motor for driving a right side wheel, and an electric motor controller for controlling the first and second electric motors, wherein the vehicle further comprises a steering angle sensor for measuring a steering angle of the vehicle to output a detected value of the steering angle, the electric motor controller includes a first torque order pattern for determining a torque order for the first electric motor and a second torque order pattern for determining a torque order for the second electric motor, the first torque order pattern and the second torque order pattern are modified in accordance with the detected value of the steering angle so that the torque order determined along the second torque order pattern is greater than the torque order determined along the first torque order pattern under the identical velocity when the vehicle turns to the left, and the torque order determined along the first torque order pattern is greater than the torque order determined along the second torque order pattern under the identical velocity when the vehicle turns to the right.
