A vehicle drive control apparatus including a motor, a battery, an
inverter having a direct current supplied from the battery, wherein the
inverter converts the direct current into an alternating current and
supplies the alternating current to the motor and a controller that
transmits a drive signal to the inverter so as to execute a weak field
control, wherein a charging current supplied to the battery, at a time
when execution of the weak field control is not allowed, is set to be
smaller than an overcharging current indicating a maximum value of an
electric current charged in the battery.
