A leaning vehicle that has a small posture change when turning and that a driver can easily operate during the turning is provided.A vehicle 1 that is a leaning vehicle includes a lean detector 61 configured to detect a posture of a vehicle body 2, a gear-type multi-stage automatic transmission 12 including a plurality of gear stages and a clutch 40 configured to switch between a transfer state and a non-transfer state of a driving force from an engine 11 to the plurality of gear stages, and a controller 7 configured to put, if engine speed is smaller than an engine speed threshold, the driving force in the non-transfer state in the multi-stage automatic transmission 12. The controller 7 sets, if the lean detector 61 determines that the vehicle 1 is travelling in an upright state, the engine speed threshold at which the driving force is put in the non-transfer state in the multi-stage automatic transmission 12 to a first engine speed threshold and sets, if the lean detector 61 determines that the vehicle 1 is turning in a lean state, the engine speed threshold to a second engine speed threshold that is smaller than the first engine speed threshold.
