Abstract
A control method for an industrial vehicle can appropriately set a charge amount for a battery, and an industrial vehicle are provided. The control method includes an estimation step that estimates the charge rate of a battery by calculating the current that is charged to the battery and the current that is discharged from the battery; a charge amount determining step that determines the charge amount of the battery based on the estimated charge rate; a correction amount determining step that determines the charge power that is necessary for motors to generate the determined charge amount as a correction amount for the power that is supplied by the engine; and an addition step that adds the charge power to the supplied power of the engine that has been determined based on the state of the traveling and load-handling.
