1. A vehicle information providing device comprising:
a history information accumulation unit configured to sequentially acquire at least one of driving location information, power consumption information and charging facility information from an in-vehicle device of a vehicle having at least an electric motor as a traveling drive source and accumulate the at least one information as driving history information; an input unit configured to input at least a departure point and a destination point; a planned route acquisition unit configured to acquire a planned route from the departure point to the destination point; a map memory configured to store a control map in which a route of section and a characteristic value are associated with each other on a basis of the driving history information accumulated in the history information accumulation unit, the route of section connecting any two charging facilities that belong to a charging facility group including a plurality of charging facilities, the characteristic value correlating with power consumption of the electric motor when the vehicle travels along the route of section; a historical statistics processing unit configured to calculate average value of at least one of the driving location information, the power consumption information and the charging facility information included in the driving history information and update the control map, when the driving history information including the route of section that is equivalent to the route of section accumulated in the history information accumulation unit is accumulated; a charging necessity determining unit configured to refer to the driving history information accumulated in the history information accumulation unit and determine whether or not the vehicle has to stand in the charging facilities when traveling from the departure point to the destination point; and a search unit configured to refer to the driving history information accumulated in the history information accumulation unit and search for a presentation route that is the same or similar to the planned route acquired by the planned route acquisition unit, wherein, when the charging necessity determining unit determines that the vehicle has to stand in the charging facilities, the search unit refers to the control map stored by the map memory to perform selection of a combination of a plurality of the routes of sections.
