ABSTRACT:
Front and rear wheels Tf, Tr of a motor vehicle driven by an engine10are connected through a differential control device15which is capable of varying the torque to transmit. When the turning radius of a predetermined one wheel or the motor vehicle is equal to or smaller than a predetermined turning radius, the transmission torque of the differential control device is decreased by a control device to prevent the tight-corner braking phenomenon from occurring. When the motor vehicle is stopped momentarily with the transmission torque being lowered, the control device maintains the transmission torque as it is, and the vehicle is then restarted with the transmission torque being lowered. Thus, when the motor vehicle which was stopped momentarily with a large steering angle is then restarted, the tight-corner braking phenomenon can be prevented from occurring from the beginning of the restarting.
