VEHICLE AND CONTROL METHOD OF VEHICLE

A vehicle (100) capable of traveling using electric power from a power storage device (110) mounted thereon has an ECU (300) executing, when traveling by electric power from the power storage device(110): the step (S 140) of calculating a reference electric consumption based on an average operating point determined by an average vehicle speed and average driving force for every predetermined period; the step (S120) of calculating an actual electric consumption based on power consumption and travel distance during the period; the step (S 150, S160, S 170) of calculating a predicted electric consumption by a smoothing processing based on the reference electric consumption and actual electric consumption; and the step (S 180) of calculating an allowed travel distance RMD that the vehicle can travel by the electric power remaining in the power storage device (110), based on the predicted electric consumption and the SOC of the power storage device (110).
