Abstract
A vehicular control device includes a determining unit configured to determine whether an absolute value of a steering angle as a rotation angle of a steering wheel exceeds a first threshold value, an estimating unit configured to estimate a lithium deposition amount as an amount of lithium metal deposited on the lithium-ion battery by regenerative current flowing into the lithium-ion battery, based on vehicle information obtained from the vehicle, when the determining unit determines that the absolute value of the steering angle exceeds the first threshold value, and a reporting command unit configured to give a command to report that the vehicle is in a first state, based on the lithium deposition amount estimated by the estimating unit.
