July 29, 2021
The vehicle notification apparatus comprises: an operation element operated by a driver to activate a turn signal indicator; an information obtaining device that obtains information on an object around the vehicle; an auditory notification device configured to give an auditory notification; a visual notification device configured to give a visual notification; and a control unit. The control unit is configured to: perform a both-notification to let both of the auditory and the visual notification devices perform the respective notifications, until a both-notification completion condition becomes satisfied from when it is determined for the first time that the obstacle is present in a period where the signal indicator is being activated; and perform a single-notification to let the visual notification device perform the notification without activating the auditory notification device, when the obstacle is determined to be present after the both-notification completion condition becomes satisfied, in the above-described period.
