A vehicle includes a display device that displays information indicating an operation state of an internal combustion engine. A display control device which is a control device that controls the display device includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire the operation state of the internal combustion engine. The display control device includes a display control unit that switches information which is displayed on the display device between a warm-up indicator for notifying that warm-up of the internal combustion engine is being performed and a warm-up completion indicator for notifying that warm-up of the internal combustion engine has been completed. The display control unit is configured to prohibit switching from the warm-up completion indicator to the warm-up indicator when the warm-up completion indicator is being displayed on the display device while the internal combustion engine is operating.

Control device

An electrically driven vehicle comprises a motor; a power storage device; a first power supply device connected with a power line; a charging device configured to charge the power storage device by using electric power from an external power source; and a second power supply device configured to supply part of the electric power from the external power source to auxiliary machinery via the charging device. The electrically driven vehicle performs a charging efficiency determination process that calculates a charging efficiency as a ratio of a charging power of the power storage device to an input power of the charging device, and that determines whether the charging efficiency is lower than a predetermined efficiency. When the charging efficiency determination process determines that the charging efficiency is lower than the predetermined efficiency, the electrically driven vehicle stops the second power supply device and performs the charging efficiency determination process again.

Electrically driven vehicle

A plug-in hybrid vehicle of the present disclosure includes an internal combustion engine, a particulate filter configured to collect particulate matter in exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine, an electric motor that outputs a driving force and a regenerative braking force to a wheel, a power storage device that exchanges electric power with the electric motor and is chargeable with electric power from an external power supply, and a controller programmed to decrease a target SOC for charging the power storage device with the electric power from the external power supply when a deposition amount of the particulate matter in the particulate filter is more than a predetermined value, compared to when the deposition amount of the particulate matter in the particulate filter is equal to or less than the predetermined value.

Plug-in hybrid vehicle and control method thereof

An automotive vehicle on which a motor for traveling, a battery configured to supply electric power to the motor, and a charging system configured to charge the battery, are installed. The automotive vehicle includes an abnormality informing unit configured to immediately inform occurrence of an abnormality regarding the charging system when the abnormality is detected, on a condition that the abnormality is a first abnormality that affects traveling, and inform occurrence of an abnormality when a next trip is started, on a condition that the abnormality is a second abnormality that does not affect traveling.
