Abstract: When a steering angle reaches a first value close to a second value that defines a boundary of the maximum physical range of operation of a steering wheel, an ECU calculates a virtual end controlled variable that sharply increases a steering torque. The ECU calculates a second limit on the virtual end controlled variable and calculates a final limit (upper and lower limits) on an assist controlled variable by taking into account the second limit. When performing virtual end control, the ECU calculates the final limit on the assist controlled variable by using, as a first limit corresponding to the steering torque, a previous value held by upper and lower limit holders, instead of a present value calculated in accordance with the steering torque in a present calculation cycle.
