A system for controlling a vehicle including a solar cell includes: a high-voltage battery; a low voltage DC-DC converter (LDC) down-converting a voltage of the high-voltage battery; an auxiliary battery and an electrical load receiving the down-converted voltage from the LDC; a solar cell; a first solar cell converter converting output power of the solar cell into a voltage corresponding to a voltage of the auxiliary battery; a second solar cell converter converting the output power of the solar cell into a voltage corresponding to a voltage of the high-voltage battery; and a controller controlling operations of the LDC, the first solar cell converter, and the second solar cell converter based on a result of comparison between the output power of the solar cell and power consumption of the electrical load and based on a state of charge (SOC) of the auxiliary battery.
