An omnidirectional vehicle capable of enhancing straight-line stability is provided.Within a period from the instant the execution of velocity component attenuation processing for reducing continuously or stepwise the magnitude of a desired velocity vector ↑Vb_aim of a predetermined representative point of a vehicle 1 having a traveling motion unit 5 capable of moving in all directions, including a first direction and a second direction, on a floor surface is started to the instant the magnitude of ↑Vb_aim attenuates to zero, the orientation of ↑Vb_aim is brought closer to the first direction. The first direction is defined as the fore-and-aft direction of an occupant aboard the vehicle 1, while the second direction is defined as the lateral direction of the occupant.
