Abstract: A road slope determining apparatus for a vehicle includes a slope measuring device that measures a slope of a road on which the vehicle is traveling; a distance measuring device that measures a distance traveled by the vehicle; and a determining apparatus that determines, based on the measured slope and the measured distance traveled, whether the vehicle is traveling on a gradient in which the slope is continuous or on a rough road in which the slope is discontinuous. This road slope determining apparatus is able to appropriately determine whether the road has a slope when the vehicle is traveling at slow speeds such as when running off-road, for example.

Abstract: An electronic control device reduces, after a time at which constant speed traveling control is terminated (specific control termination time) not by an accelerating operation or braking operation but by, for example, an operation of a control switch, the vehicle driving force to a force corresponding to the amount of accelerating operation at the specific control termination time. Also, the electronic control device changes the vehicle braking force to a force corresponding to the amount of braking operation at the specific control termination time by controlling the braking hydraulic pressures with a hydraulic pressure circuit so that the value of a vehicle propulsive force, which takes a positive value when acting in the same direction as the driving force (and takes a negative value when acting in the opposite direction of the driving force) and which has a magnitude equal to a value resulting from subtracting the magnitude of the braking force from the magnitude of the driving force, is equal to or smaller than the value of the vehicle propulsive force at the specific control termination time.

Abstract: A braking force maintaining apparatus executes hill-hold control in which braking force applied to each of wheels of a vehicle is maintained by a braking device even after release of a brake pedal. An electronic control unit determines whether the yaw rate of the vehicle is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold value and whether the wheels are held in a locked state by the braking force applied by the braking device. If the wheels are held in the locked state and the yaw rate is greater than or equal to the threshold value, the electronic control unit controls the braking device in such a manner that the braking force acting on two or more of wheels including at least a specific wheel falls below the braking force at the start of the hill-hold control. The specific wheel is one of steered wheels that corresponds to an outer wheel when the steered wheels are steered through manipulation of the steering wheel intended to correct an offset posture of the vehicle that causes generation of the yaw rate.
