Abstract:
A driving condition evaluation device is provided. The device includes a vehicle speed detection portion configured to detect a vehicle speed. A driving force estimation portion is configured to estimate driving force for driving a vehicle generated in accordance with a driving operation performed by a driver. A threshold value setting portion is configured to set a threshold value of the driving force based on the vehicle speed detected by the vehicle speed detection portion. A driving force information informing portion is configured to inform the driver of a relationship between the driving force estimated by the driving force estimation portion and the threshold value set by the threshold value setting portion.
