FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE
DRIVE
February 13, 2020
A four-wheel drive vehicle comprises: main drive wheels; sub-drive wheels; a power transmission path; a first connecting/disconnecting device; and a second connecting/disconnecting device, at least one connecting/disconnecting device of the first and second connecting/disconnecting devices including: a dog clutch; a synchronization mechanism; and an electromagnetic actuator. The four-wheel drive vehicle includes a control device providing the energization control of the electromagnetic coil based on a preliminarily stored current command value to engage the dog clutch of the one connecting/disconnecting device, and the control device learns a characteristic value indicative of an increasing characteristic of the rotation speed of the first rotating member with respect to the current command value and updates the current command value such that an increase rate of the rotation speed of the first rotating member becomes equal to a predetermined rate based on the learned characteristic value.
