Abstract: In the present invention, automated driving control of a vehicle during automated driving is fundamentally performed by referring to a medium-term trajectory which is generated in a medium period having a relatively long computation period and in which emphasis is placed on the smoothness of driving behavior changes. As an exception, in cases in which reference-excluding conditions are matched, the medium-term trajectory is ignored, and automated driving control of the vehicle is performed using only a short-term trajectory generated in a short period having a shorter computation period than the medium period. Thus, a vehicle control device is provided which ensures adaptability without diminishing responsiveness.

Abstract: In this vehicle control device, a low-level short-terra trajectory generating unit generates a short-term trajectory by using the newest dynamic external environment recognition information while also using the same static external environment recognition information (lane shape information, or the like) as the static external environment recognition information used by a high-level medium-term trajectory generating unit. Performing such control prevents inconsistency between the external environment information (environment information) used by the low-level short-term trajectory generating unit and that used for a medium-term trajectory, which is a high-level trajectory, and makes stable trajectory output possible.
