DRIVING FORCE CONTROL METHOD AND DRIVING FORCE CONTROL DEVICE

When an accelerator pedal operation amount is large enough to generate a driving force after switching from a stopping range to a starting range is performed, in order to prevent a sudden starting immediately after the range switching, an upper limit of the driving force of a driving source is limited to a driving force larger than a holding threshold value for releasing holding of a stopping state of a vehicle and smaller than a required driving force based on the accelerator pedal operation amount.
