Abstract: A creep control device for a vehicle having an automatic transmission including a torque converter with a lock-up clutch. The creep control device includes a throttle angle sensor for detecting a throttle angle, a vehicle speed sensor for detecting a running speed of the vehicle, a slope sensor for detecting a road surface slope, and a lock-up clutch engagement control unit for controlling the degree of engagement of the lock-up clutch. When the throttle angle is detected to be nearly zero by the throttle angle sensor and the running speed is detected to be vary small or zero by the vehicle speed sensor in the condition where the shift position is in a running range, the degree of engagement of the lock-up clutch is controlled to decrease with an increase in the road surface slope by the lock-up clutch control unit.
