PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicle control device capable of realizing speed reduction control of a vehicle at a low cost.SOLUTION: A vehicle control device includes a motor which generates a driving force for a vehicle while capable of generating a regenerative braking force, a battery power source which supplies electric power to the motor, a motor drive control part which converts electric power between the motor and the battery power source to perform drive speed reduction control of a vehicle while performs regenerative control for charging the battery power source based on the regenerative braking force, and an electromagnetic brake which receives power supply from the battery power source to brake the vehicle. The motor drive control part performs speed reduction control by using the electromagnetic brake. 【課題】車両の減速制御を安価に実現できる車両制御装置を提供する。【解決手段】車両制御装置は、車両の駆動力を発生する一方、回生制動力を発生可能な電動機と、電動機に電力を供給するバッテリ電源と、電動機とバッテリ電源との間で電力を変換し、車両の駆動減速制御を実行すると共に回生制動力に基づいて前記バッテリ電源を充電する回生制御を実行する電動機駆動制御部と、バッテリ電源から電力供給を受けて前記車両を制動する電磁ブレーキとを含み、電動機駆動制御部は、電磁ブレーキを用いて減速制御を実行する。【選択図】図１
