Abstract
A minimum remaining driving range estimated to be the distance which the vehicle can travel on the remaining battery power, in a case where a power load which accessories capable of receiving electric power from a battery place on the battery is the greatest within a variable range in accordance with input of operations, and a maximum remaining driving range estimated to be the distance which the vehicle can travel on the remaining battery power, in a case where the power load is the smallest within the variable range, are displayed on a display unit.
Claims8
An onboard display device that displays, on a display unit within a vehicle, a remaining driving range, which is an estimated distance of how far the vehicle can travel by being driven by an electrical motor which operates under electrical power from a battery, without replenishing electric power to the battery from outside of the vehicle, the onboard display device comprising:
- a remaining power obtaining unit that obtains remaining power which is electric power stored in the battery;
- a distance deriving unit that derives
- a minimum remaining driving range estimated to be the distance which the vehicle can travel on the remaining battery power, in a case where a power load which accessories capable of receiving electric power from the battery place on the battery is the greatest within a variable range in accordance with input of operations, and
- a maximum remaining driving range estimated to be the distance which the vehicle can travel on the remaining battery power, in a case where the power load is the smallest within the variable range;
- and
- a display control unit that displays the minimum remaining driving range and the maximum remaining driving range on the display unit.
