Abstract
In a case where a determination is made, after an engine is started based on a remote operation, that an ambient environment of a vehicle is not a predetermined appropriate environment based on a detection value from an ambient environment detection sensor configured to detect the ambient environment of the vehicle, the engine is stopped. As a result, it is possible to suppress a deterioration of an environmental state around the vehicle or an occupant cabin. As a result, it is possible to take more appropriate measures when the engine is started based on the remote operation.
