Original Abstract Submitted
A control method for drift driving a vehicle supports a drift entry assistance function and a drift maintenance assistance function while maximizing driver's drift driving experience. The control method includes determining, by a controller, whether or not drift entry assistance control is required based on vehicle driving state information, when the vehicle enters a drift mode, and performing, by the controller, the drift entry assistance control using a torque vectoring motor so that the vehicle reaches a drift driving state when determining that the drift entry assistance control is required.
