Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A vehicle control system and a vehicle control device can switch control of a supporting device for support a drive of a vehicle between an ordinary travel in which the vehicle travels in a state that a power source for causing the vehicle to travel is operated and an inertia travel in which the vehicle travels in a state that an operation of the power source is stopped. Accordingly, since the vehicle control system and the vehicle control device switch the control of the supporting device between the ordinary travel and the inertia travel, the vehicle control system and the vehicle control device achieve an effect that the vehicle can be caused to appropriately travel by inertia.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A vehicle control device, comprising: a power source configured to cause a vehicle to travel; a supporting device configured to support a drive of the vehicle; and a controller configured to switch control of the supporting device for supporting the drive of the vehicle between an ordinary travel in which the vehicle travels in a first state that the power source for causing the vehicle to travel is operated and an inertia travel in which the vehic…
