BATTERY CHARGE AMOUNT INCREASE FACILITY INFORMATION PROVISION DEVICE AND METHOD

摘要

A battery charge amount increase facility information provision device provides information relating to a battery charge amount increase facility to a vehicle installed with a battery (60) that is charged using an external power supply. The device includes a current position sensor (51) which detects a current position of the vehicle, a charge amount sensor (52) which detects a battery charge amount (SOC), a database (20) which registers the formation relating to the battery charge amount increase facility, and a controller (10). The controller (10) registers the current position of the vehicle in the database (20) as a location of a battery charge amount increase facility when the SOC has increased under a predetermined condition (S113). As a result, an amount of information relating to the locations of usable battery charge amount increase facilities is increased.
