VEHICLE AND VEHICLE CONTROL METHOD

When a start switch is operated (YES in S100),and a vehicle is running (YES in S102), and a system of a vehicle is in an activated state (S104), ECU executes a program including the steps of determining whether or not a brake is in an on-state, and shifting the system of the vehicle to a stopped state (S112) when the brake is in the on-state (YES in S106) while an operation duration is equal to or greater than a threshold value Tc (0) (YES in S108), or when the brake is in the off-state (NO in S106) while the operation duration Tc is equal to or greater than a threshold value Tc (1) greater than threshold value Tc (0) (YES in S110).
