Method and apparatus for entering boost mode with paddles

A method and apparatus of entering boost mode with paddles, which is capable of ensuring stability of driving by switching driving modes while minimizing movement of a driver's gaze and hand, includes determining whether to instruct to enter a boost mode based on a sensing value of an accelerator pedal position sensor and an input of a paddle, determining whether a current state of a vehicle is able to enter the boost mode when it is determined to instruct to enter the boost mode, switching, by the controller, a current mode of the vehicle to the boost mode when the controller concludes that the current state of the vehicle is able to enter the boost mode, and determining whether to instruct to release the boost mode based on the sensing value of the accelerator pedal position sensor and the input of the paddle.
