VEHICULAR INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS

An object of the invention is to display a running state of a vehicle corresponding to the running mode when the running mode is selected of the vehicle. A vehicular information processing apparatus includes a storage unit in which running states of a vehicle each including a height of the vehicle and a manner of drive power distribution are stored so as to correspond to respective running modes, an input/output device that receives an input manipulation for selecting one of the running modes and a display control unit that causes the input/output device to make a display that indicates the selected running mode. The display control unit causes the input/output device to display a running state corresponding to the selected running mode in the form of an animation together with a skeleton image of the vehicle, and then display an appearance of the vehicle.
