Abstract
A vehicle that can adaptively adjust a sensing distance of an ultrasonic sensor according to operation of the vehicle includes: a steering device for steering a wheel; a power device for transmitting power to the wheel; a braking device for braking the wheel; an ultrasonic sensor for detecting an external object; an input device for receiving an input from a user; a transceiver for communicating with a user terminal; and a controller for adjusting a sensing distance of the ultrasonic sensor based on whether a user input for automatic parking is received through the input device or the transceiver and controlling at least one of the steering device, the power device, or the braking device based on an output of the ultrasonic sensor and the user input.
