차량 주행 제어 장치는, 선행차의 상태를 나타내는 선행차 정보를 취득하는 센서; 선행차에서 생성된 선행차 가감속도 정보를 선행차와의 통신을 통해 취득하는 통신 장치; 및 선행차 정보에 기초하여 자차의 목표 가감속도 값에 관한 제 1 목표 값과 선행차 가감속도 정보에 기초하여 자차의 목표 가감속도 값에 관한 제 2 목표 값을 생성하고, 생성된 제 1 목표 값 및 제 2 목표 값에 기초하여, 자차의 가감속도를 제어하는 제어 장치를 포함하고, 제어 장치는, 주행 장면에 따라 선행차 가감속도 정보를 보정하여 제 2 목표 값을 생성한다. A vehicle travel control apparatus includes: a sensor that obtains preceding vehicle information representing a status of a preceding vehicle; a communication apparatus that obtains preceding vehicle acceleration/deceleration information, which is generated in the preceding vehicle, via communication with the preceding vehicle; and a controller that generates a first target value related to a target acceleration/deceleration value of a host vehicle based on the preceding vehicle information and a second target value related to the target acceleration/deceleration value of the host vehicle based on the preceding vehicle acceleration/deceleration information, and controls acceleration/deceleration of the host vehicle based on the generated first and second target values, wherein the controller corrects the preceding vehicle acceleration/deceleration information according to a travel scene to generate the second target value.
