Vehicle

摘要

An ECU is mounted on a vehicle that is able to carry out external charging for charging an in-vehicle battery with electric power from an outside of the vehicle and external discharging for discharging electric power inside the vehicle to the outside of the vehicle. The ECU sets a control mode of the vehicle to any one of a charging mode for carrying out the external charging, a discharging mode for carrying out the external discharging, and a traveling mode for propelling the vehicle. The ECU determines which one of the charging mode and the discharging mode is given a higher priority in accordance with a state of the vehicle when a user has carried out operation to require the external discharging during the charging mode or when the user has carried out operation to require the external charging during the discharging mode.

主权项

1. A vehicle comprising:
an electronic control unit (ECU) configured to (a) select one of an external power receiving mode and an external power supply mode, the external power receiving mode being a mode in which external power receiving is carried out for receiving electric power from an outside of the vehicle, the external power supply mode being a mode in which external power supply is carried out for supplying electric power to the outside of the vehicle, (b) determine at least one of whether operation to require the external power supply has been carried out by a user or whether operation to require the external power receiving has been carried out by the user, and (c) determine based on a state of the vehicle which one of the external power receiving mode and the external power supply mode is given a higher priority, when the ECU determines that the operation to require the external power supply has been carried out while the external power receiving mode is selected or when the ECU determines that the operation to require the external power receiving has been carried out while the external power supply mode is selected.
