Abstract
An ECU executes a charge preparation communication sequence after a connector is connected to an inlet and before external charging is performed, and counts a response time (message transmission and reception time) of a charging station to a prescribed event. A memory stores a message transmission and reception time of a specific charging station. The ECU does not perform external charging when the message transmission and reception time counted during the charge preparation communication sequence is equal to the message transmission and reception time stored in the memory.
