Whether the master cylinder pressure Pm of the brake master cylinder is higher than the reference pressure Pmref is determined (step S 120). Based on the determination, the lock-up clutch of the torque converter is promptly released (step S130) or gradually released (step S140). Whether the master cylinder pressure Pm is higher than the reference pressure Pmref is determined (step S160). Based on the determination, the connection provided by the clutch is promptly terminated (step S170), or gradually terminated (step S180). Because the lock-up clutch is released and the connection provided by the clutch is terminated based on the operation of the brake pedal performed by the driver, a sense of discomfort felt by the driver can be suppressed.
