1. A vehicle comprising:
- a rotating electric machine configured to generate a driving force of a vehicle;
a power storage device configured to supply electric power to said rotating electric machine;
an operation device configured to receive operation of varying an upper limit value of discharge power of said power storage device; and
a controller configured to control said discharge power so that said upper limit value of said discharge power is limited when said operation device receives first operation for limiting said upper limit value, and the limitation of said upper limit value is canceled when said operation device receives second operation for canceling the limitation of said upper limit value,said controller being configured to determine whether or not said first operation has been received based on an amount of operation of said operation device, the amount of operation required to determine the reception of said first operation being greater than the amount of operation required to determine the reception of said second operation,said controller being configured to determine that said first operation has been received when a number of operations of said operation device is equal to or larger than a first threshold value, and determines that said second operation has been received when said number of operations is equal to or larger than a second threshold value, andsaid first threshold value being greater than said second threshold value.

Abstract
An ECU determines whether or not first operation for limiting an upper limit value of discharge power of a power storage device for supplying electric power to a rotating electric machine for generating a driving force of a vehicle has been received, by setting a first threshold value of an operation duration of an operation device required to determine the reception of the first operation to be greater than a second threshold value of operation duration of the operation device required to determine the reception of second operation for canceling the limitation of the upper limit value.

5. A method of controlling a vehicle, used for a vehicle including a rotating electric machine configured to generate a driving force, a power storage device configured to supply electric power to said rotating electric machine, and an operation device configured to receive operation of varying an upper limit value of discharge power of said power storage device, comprising the steps of:
-
controlling said discharge power so that said upper limit value of said discharge power is limited when said operation device receives first operation for limiting said upper limit value; controlling said discharge power so that the limitation of said upper limit value is canceled when said operation device receives second operation for canceling the limitation of said upper limit value; determining whether or not said first operation has been received based on an amount of operation of said operation device, the amount of operation required to determine the reception of said first operation being greater than the amount of operation required to determine the reception of said second operation; and determining that said first operation has been received when a number of operations of said operation device is equal to or larger than a first threshold value, and determines that said second operation has been received when said number of operations is equal to or larger than a second threshold value, and said first threshold value being greater than said second threshold value.
