1. A telematics device for an electric vehicle comprising:
- a temperature adjusting unit for adjusting an indoor temperature by driving an air-conditioning unit of the electric vehicle;
a battery charging unit for controlling battery charging, and adjusting a current amount applied to the temperature adjusting unit according to battery State of Charge (SOC) information and a charging current amount when receiving a power-supply signal for the temperature adjusting unit during a battery charging time; and
a controller for outputting the power-supply signal upon receiving a remote control signal from a predetermined server, and adjusting an indoor temperature of the electric vehicle by controlling the temperature adjusting unit,wherein the battery charging unit adjusts a ratio of a current amount required for the battery charging to another current amount applied to the themperature adjusting unit according to the battery SOC information and the charging current amount.
