Abstract: When a vehicle is switched from a two-wheel-drive mode to a four-wheel-drive mode during turning, rotation of a Rr dog clutch is synchronized by a synchro mechanism. Rotation of a Fr dog clutch is synchronized, by controlling coupling torque of a control coupling that transmits power to a rear wheel that provides an outer wheel during turning. Thus, rotation of the Fr dog clutch is also synchronized, so that shock at the time of engagement of the Fr dog clutch can be suppressed.

Abstract: An electronic control unit switches a driving mode to a high-gear two-wheel driving mode when a first condition and a second condition are satisfied at the time of driving in a high-gear four-wheel driving mode, and switches the driving mode from the high-gear two-wheel driving mode to the low-gear driving mode when a third condition is satisfied in a state in which the first and second conditions are satisfied. Accordingly, it is possible to shorten a time required for switching to the low-gear driving mode after all of the first to third conditions are satisfied.
