    Abstract: A motor vehicle for operation by a driver has a frame with wheels and a motor connected to the frame. A steering control is connected to the wheels to establish a steering angle.
    A controller is operably connected to the steering control, to the motor, and to the wheels, and is operable to selectably drive the wheels in a forward direction in a drive mode and in a rearward direction in a reverse mode. The controller is operable to select a direction for driving the wheels in response to a pattern of steering angle movements, without operator indication of a direction.

    Abstract: The vehicle includes a drive source, a transmission that shifts power from the drive source and transmits the power to the drive wheels, and a control device that controls the drive source and the transmission. The control device executes a downshift delay process of changing the timing of the downshift of the transmission to the low vehicle speed side as compared with the case where the predetermined condition is not satisfied when the predetermined condition is not satisfied, when the subject vehicle is in the following mode that follows the forward vehicle, the overtaking with respect to the forward vehicle is restricted, and the predetermined condition of the accelerator off and the brake off is satisfied.

    Abstract: A vehicle system includes: a reprogramming slave device that is an electronic control unit (hereinafter, referred to as ECU) to be a target of updating an update file of a program stored among a plurality of the ECUs; a reprogramming master device that transmits the update file to the reprogramming slave device in response to a request from a terminal operable by a vehicle user to control updating of the program stored in the reprogramming slave device; and a determination unit that determines traveling propriety of a vehicle when the update file is rewritten in the reprogramming slave device. The vehicle device functions as the reprogramming master device, and includes: an obtaining unit that obtains the traveling propriety determined by the determination unit; and a notification command unit that commands a notification medium to notify information of the traveling propriety obtained by the obtaining unit.
