Abstract:
A vehicle control system is provided. The vehicle control system is applied to a vehicle having a clutch device adapted to selectively connect and disconnect a power transmission route between a prime mover and drive wheels. The vehicle control system disconnects the power transmission route during running to allow the vehicle to coast. The vehicle control system is comprised of: a means detecting a vehicle speed; a means detecting an operation of an accelerator by a driver; a means detecting a braking operation of the driver; an execution means executing a coasting control when an operating amount of the accelerator is reduced to be smaller than a predetermined value during running, by bringing the clutch device into disengagement to disconnect the power transmission route so as to allow the vehicle to coast; a determination means determining whether or not a deceleration demand of the driver is larger than a predetermined value during execution of the coasting control based on the vehicle speed and the braking operation; and a termination means determining a fact that the deceleration demand is strong if the deceleration demand is larger than the predetermined value, and that terminates the coasting control by bringing the clutch device into engagement to connect the power transmission route.
