Abstract
A vehicle includes an electric motor; a battery that is detachable from a body of the vehicle; a connector that electrically connects the battery with the vehicle body; and a temperature sensor that detects a temperature of the connector. In accordance with an electric power supplied from the battery via the connector, the electric motor generates a driving force to cause the vehicle to move. During movement of the vehicle and when the detected temperature is equal to or greater than a first threshold value, a controller performs control to lower power consumption of the vehicle compared to when the detected temperature is less than the first threshold value.
