Abstract: A car sharing system includes a car share device and a communication control unit. The car share device is configured to perform wireless communication with a mobile terminal that is operable as an electronic key. The communication control unit controls the wireless communication between the mobile terminal and the car share device so that an authentication process through bidirectional communication is executed only when a communication connection establishment process is performed. After the wireless communication has been established, the communication control unit controls the wireless communication so that actuation of an on-board device is permitted in accordance with operation of the mobile terminal through unidirectional communication from the mobile terminal to the car share device.
