Abstract
A vehicle charge system includes: a voltage detection section configured to detect terminal voltage of a storage battery; and a charge control section configured to control charging of the storage battery until the terminal voltage reaches full-charge voltage, while switching between a first charging mode and a second charging mode, on the basis of the terminal voltage. During a period in which the terminal voltage is equal to or lower than first voltage, the charge control section charges the storage battery by the first charging mode. After the terminal voltage has exceeded the first voltage, the charge control section charges the storage battery by the second charging mode. After the terminal voltage has exceeded the first voltage, if the terminal voltage has reduced to be second voltage, the charge control section charges the storage battery by the first charging mode until the terminal voltage is restored to the first voltage.
