Zusammenfassung:The present invention provides a driving mode changing device. The driving mode changing device includes a storage unit for storing three or more driving modes including a normal mode and other modes, an input unit for selecting and inputting an arbitrary one from among the driving modes, and a control unit for changing setup of a plurality of driving control devices installed in a vehicle according to the driving mode input from the input unit. The input unit includes one operating member. The operating member is biased from a stationary position when no operation is performed so as to enable a push operation, and simultaneously biased from the stationary position to a predetermined turned position so as to enable a turn operation. The control unit switches the drive mode from the normal mode to a predetermined driving mode, which is different from the normal mode, among the driving modes when detecting that the operating member is pushed at the stationary position, and switches to the other driving mode different from the normal mode and the predetermined driving mode when detecting that the operating member is continuously held at the turned position for a predetermined time in the state where the predetermined driving mode is selected.
