Abstract

The invention provides a vehicle with safety, and a vehicle with satisfactory operation for accelerating speed. The vehicle includes a peripheral steering wheel, a grip forming a part of the wheel and being held by a user, and input units formed inside the wheel. Each input unit includes a first input switch to be actuated by a pressing action of a user's thumb, a second input switch to be actuated by a pressing action of the user's thumb, and a third input switch provided between the first input switch and the second input switch to be actuated by a sliding action of the user's thumb on the third input switch on the wheel while the user is holding the grip. The input by the first input switch allows a cyclic change to be performed for changing drive modes.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a vehicle including a vehicle steering wheel provided with an input unit. Background technique [0002] Near the car, a large number of buttons for various operations including driving mode, navigation, audio play / stop, volume control, and air-conditioning setting are provided on the vehicle steering wheel. [0003] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique in which an operating unit is disposed on a spoke portion of a steering wheel as an in-vehicle device operating system. Blind operation can be performed by displaying the operation of the operation unit near the driver's line of sight during driving. [0004] In Patent Document 2, a ring-shaped steering wheel is provided with a palm rest in contact with the palm, and an operating device capable of operating an in-vehicle device while in contact with the palm is provided on the palm rest. [0005] In addition, Patent Document 3 discloses that a protrusion...
