Brake control device for vehicle
A brake control device for a vehicle includes: a motor connected to wheels; a hydraulic brake that generates a friction braking force based on frictional contact with a brake rotor that integrally rotates with the wheels; a controller that performs coordination control of regenerative brake control, in which a regenerative power generation is performed by the motor on a basis of rotation of the wheels to apply a regenerative braking force to the wheels, and hydraulic brake control, in which the hydraulic brake is operated; and a battery that exchanges power with the motor. Further, in a case where a temperature of the brake rotor is higher than a predetermined temperature when input to the battery is restricted in a state where there is a deceleration request, the controller reduces the friction braking force, and performs the regenerative brake control while power is consumed by an electric device.
