  • Publication number: 20200339081
    Abstract: The present invention provides a control apparatus for an electric vehicle that can prevent a vehicle from losing the stability because a rear wheel is locked first or prevent the drivability from reducing because a front wheel is locked early. A control apparatus outputs an instruction to generate a first regenerative braking force corresponding to a regenerative braking force on an electric motor when a signal regarding a return of a pressed accelerator pedal is input from an accelerator pedal sensor. The accelerator pedal sensor is configured to detect a physical amount regarding a stroke of the accelerator pedal of the electric vehicle. The control apparatus outputs an instruction to generate a brake actuation braking force on a wheel when a signal regarding pressing of a brake pedal is input from a brake pedal sensor. The brake pedal sensor is configured to detect a physical amount regarding a stroke of the brake pedal of the electric vehicle.
