Abstract
A vehicle information output control device includes a processor. The processor acquires direction information on a direction in which a lane change is possible by activation of a lane change assist system. Based on the direction information, the processor causes a display unit in a vehicle cabin to output a direction image indicating the direction in which the lane change is possible.
