Abstract

A vehicle information providing device provides route information to vehicles. The vehicle information providing device has a history information accumulation unit that sequentially acquires at least one of driving location information, power consumption information and charging location information from vehicle-mounted devices of a plurality of vehicle, and stores as driving history information. A presentation route is determined by extracting the stored driving history information. The stored driving history information is referenced to determine a route travelled from the departure-point range to the target-point range, from among the routes travelled by the vehicle as the presentation route. Also, the vehicle information providing device alters the search conditions and the search is performed again, when there are no routes traveling from the departure location range to the destination range within a predetermined range.
