Abstract
If a charging quantity charged to a battery pack since switching from discharging to charging is more than or equal to a reference charging quantity, an ECU estimates the SOC from the OCV by referring to a charging OCV. If a discharging quantity discharged from the battery pack since switching from charging to discharging is more than or equal to a reference discharging quantity, the ECU estimates the SOC from the OCV by referring to a discharging OCV. If the electric quantity is less than the reference charging quantity or if the electric quantity is more than the reference discharging quantity, the ECU estimates the SOC from the OCV using a straight line for supplementing SOC-OCV characteristics in a region enclosed by the charging OCV and the discharging OCV.
