An apparatus and method for controlling a lane change in a vehicle are provided. The apparatus includes: a turn signal module to receive an input for a turn signal, a navigation module to obtain map information, a display to output a user interface, and a processor electrically connected with the turn signal lever, the navigation module, and the display. The processor recognizes a diverging section located on a road where the vehicle is traveling, based on the map information obtained by the navigation module when a lane change command is received via the turn signal module, determines whetherthe vehicle is able to change a driving lane of the vehicle to a diverging lane in the diverging section based on a speed of the vehicle, and controls the vehicle to enter the diverging lane when thevehicle is able to change the driving lane. 提供一种用于控制车辆的车道变换的装置和方法。该装置包括：转向信号模块，接收转向信号的输入；导航模块，获取地图信息；显示器，输出用户界面；以及处理器，与转向信号杆、导航模块、以及显示器电连接。当经由转向信号模块接收到车道变换命令时，处理器基于由导航模块获取的地图信息识别位于车辆正行驶的道路上的分流区段、基于车辆的速度确定车辆是否能够将车辆的行驶车道变换为分流区段
