Abstract
An information providing apparatus is configured to be used in a target vehicle and display power feeding facilities on a map, the target vehicle being configured such that a vehicle-mounted battery can be charged with DC power supplied from outside the target vehicle. The information providing apparatus is configured to display an electrical outlet-type AC stand on the map in a manner of being distinguished from a cable-equipped AC stand, when the target vehicle is a vehicle not including an AC charger and a prescribed first condition is satisfied. In contrast, the information providing apparatus is configured to display the electrical outlet-type AC stand and the cable-equipped AC stand on the map without distinguishing between the electrical outlet-type AC stand and the cable-equipped AC stand, when the target vehicle is a vehicle including the AC charger and a prescribed second condition is satisfied.
