ABSTRACT:
A gear shift control apparatus for use with an automotive vehicle to control gear shift operation in the automatic transmission. An estimated engine load is calculated as a function of engine load and engine load rate of change to reflect a driver's expectation for gear shift operation on the gear shift control. A shift pattern is used to select an appropriate gear position based upon the vehicle speed and the estimated engine load.
