1. An apparatus for controlling a vehicle, the apparatus comprising:
a communicator configured to receive a setting value signal related to at least one of a first setting value, a second setting value, or a third setting value that are set in advance from a user terminal, and transmit a signal to the user terminal; and
a controller configured to control at least one of a travelling device, a braking device, or a steering device based on the received setting value,
wherein the controller determines a speed of the vehicle, and controls the at least one of the travelling device, the braking device, or the steering device to absorb a shock applied to the vehicle based on the determined speed and the received setting value,
wherein the controller, when it is determined that the vehicle deviated from a preset posture, controls the at least one of the travelling device, the braking device, or the steering device based on the at least one of the first setting value, the second setting value, or the third setting value such that the vehicle maintains the preset posture,
wherein the controller determines whether the vehicle performs a sudden braking, and adjusts a hydraulic pressure of the braking device to apply a brake pressure to the braking device based on a result of the determination of performing sudden braking and the received setting value, and
wherein the controller determines, based on at least one of the first setting value, the second setting value, or the third setting value received from the user terminal, whether the vehicle is able to stop within a predetermined braking distance, and control at least one of the braking device or the steering device to minimize a braking distance of the vehicle in response to determining that the vehicle is not able to stop within the predetermined braking distance.
