Abstract
A vehicle that enables external charging which is charging of a vehicle-mounted electric power storage device using electric power supplied from an electric power supply outside the vehicle includes a communication device configured to communicate with a server outside the vehicle, and an electronic control unit. The ECU is configured to execute a process for timer charging that is the external charging executed in accordance with a set time schedule. When the timer charging based on alternating current charging is performed, the ECU is configured to set the time schedule in the vehicle without using the server. When the timer charging based on direct current charging is performed, the ECU is configured to control the communication device to transmit data needed for setting the time schedule in a direct current electric power supply facility to the server.
