Abstract

In an embodiment, a method of controlling a vehicle by altitude prediction based on identification of a high-energy area is provided. The method can include identifying a high-energy spot based on a reference altitude change and map information including altitude data, clustering high-energy spots for each area to set a high-energy area and generating area information, and performing driving power control based on at least location information of the vehicle and the area information in response to the vehicle travel path including the high-energy area.
