Vehicle and cleaning method of detection sensor mounted on vehicle

A vehicle, comprising:

• a detection sensor used to detect a surrounding condition of the vehicle;
• a vehicle controller configured to perform drive control of the vehicle by using a signal output from the detection sensor;
• a fuel cell configured to generate electric power while generating water;
• an accumulating portion configured to accumulate the generated water discharged from the fuel cell therein as liquid water;
• a cleaning portion connected with the accumulating portion, provided with a nozzle that is open to the detection sensor, and configured to eject the liquid water accumulated in the accumulating portion through the nozzle and thereby clean the detection sensor under control of the vehicle controller;
• a compressor configured to feed a compressed gas that is supplied to the fuel cell and that is used for power generation;
• a gas piping connected with the fuel cell and arranged such that the compressed gas flows in;
• and
• a pressure piping connected with the gas piping, wherein
• the cleaning portion causes the liquid water to be ejected from the nozzle by a pressure of the compressed gas that is transmitted from the gas piping through the pressure piping.
