Abstract

A vehicle is provided that includes a battery; a motor configured to rotate a wheel using electric power charged in the battery; and a communication device that performs communication with other vehicles and a terminal. A controller operates the communication device to transmit request information of a charging service when an amount of charge of the battery is equal to or less than a preset amount of charge and charges the battery based on electric power generated by the motor while using the charging service through one of the other vehicles.
