A vehicle position calculating apparatus and vehicle position calculating method which can accurately calculate a current position of a vehicle regardless of the orientation of the vehicle at the time when acquiring positional information are provided. An advancing direction detecting section 16 in a vehicle position calculating ECU 1 detects an advancing direction of a vehicle in a receiving area according to receiving area form information issued from a receiving area form acquiring section 12, moving distance information issued from a moving distance calculating section 13, and course change information issued from a course changing action detecting section 14. A vehicle position calculating section 17 sets a reference position (x, y) according to reference positional information issued from a reference position acquiring section 11, and calculates the current vehicle position by taking account of the advancing direction issued from the advancing direction detecting section 16 in addition to a relative change (x, y) based on relative change information issued from the relative position change detecting section 15.
