  • System and method for controlling driving of vehicle
    Patent number: 9604643
    Abstract: A system and method for controlling driving of a vehicle is provided. The method includes initiating a creep entry by determining whether the vehicle is driven at a low speed that is equal to or less than creep speed during a stop of the vehicle and initiating control in a creep mode. A launch entry is initiated by determining whether both an APS condition in which an APS is equal to or greater than a reference APS in a creep mode and an engine torque condition that an engine torque is equal to or greater than a reference engine torque are satisfied and converting a current mode into an launch mode. A tip-out entry is initiated by determining whether an APS is less than the reference APS in a launch mode and converting a current mode into a tip-out mode for gradually reducing the engine torque.
