A vehicle includes a traveling motor, a traveling battery that drives at least one wheel, a low-voltage electric component, at least one processor, and a storage medium. The traveling battery includes battery modules each including battery cells and supplies electric power to the traveling motor. The low-voltage electric component operates at a voltage lower than an output voltage of the traveling battery. The storage medium stores a program to be executed by the processor. The program includes at least one command that causes the processor to perform a state-of-health (SOH) calculation process of calculating the SOH of the battery modules, and a selection process of selecting a low-voltage power feeder module from the battery modules based on the SOH calculated in the SOH calculation process. The low-voltage power feeder module corresponds to one of the battery modules to be used to supply electric power to the low-voltage electric component.
