An operating device for a vehicle includes a display, a touch operation surface set at a first predetermined position and pushable and returnable to the first predetermined position after being pushed, a coordinate detecting unit to detect a coordinate indicating a touch position of an operating finger on the touch operation surface, a push detecting unit to detect the push of the touch operation surface, and a control unit to display a cursor in a screen displayed on the display based on the coordinate detected by the coordinate detecting unit and to perform operation details of an item in the screen selected by the cursor based on the push of the touch operation surface detected by the push detecting unit. The control unit does not update the position of the cursor within a predetermined amount of time after the push detecting unit detects the push of the touch operation surface.
