Abstract:
Provided is a vehicle travel control device which simultaneously achieves the behavioral stability of a vehicle and the continuity of travel assistance during vehicle travel assistance. The setting range of controlled variable to an actuator in travel assistance control is limited on the basis of the information having higher priority among road type information and road shape information. Thus, compared to when the setting range of the control variable is determined on the basis of only the road type information or the road shape information, it is possible to suppress excessive limitations on the applicable range/duration time of travel assistance.

Claim (Index 1):
A vehicle travel control device configured to automatically control an actuator of a vehicle to at least partially assist driving when the vehicle is traveling, comprising:\n a road type acquisition unit configured to acquire information of a road type on which the vehicle travels; a road shape acquisition unit configured to acquire information of a road shape of a frontward road in front of a location where the vehicle is traveling; a control amount setting unit configured to set a control amount of the actuator required for traveling on the frontward road; and a setting range restricting unit configured to restrict a setting range of the control amount on a basis of one of information items having a higher priority from among the information of the road type and the information of the road shape.
