Control device for electric vehicle

A control device for an electric vehicle on which a motor is mounted, the motor having both a function of driving wheels with power of a battery and a function of charging the battery with power generated by regeneration power generation, the control device comprising:

• a setting unit configured to set, as a maximum value of power capable of being charged into the battery, a short time State Of Power (SOP) applied during charging in which a charging time is equal to or less than a predetermined time and a long time SOP applied during charging in which the charging time exceeds the predetermined time and having a value smaller than the short time SOP;
• a calculation unit configured to calculate a regeneration SOP corresponding to a maximum value of regeneration power from the motor based on the short time SOP and the long time SOP;
• and
• a control unit configured to control the regeneration power from the motor in a range equal to or less than the regeneration SOP, wherein
• the calculation unit is configured to execute a transition calculation of gradually changing the regeneration SOP from the short time SOP to the long time SOP in accordance with a duration time of the regeneration power generation.
