  • Publication number: 20260018058
    Abstract: An emergency report system is applicable to a vehicle configured to establish vehicle-to-vehicle communication and includes a processor and a communicator. The communicator is configured to perform transmission and reception of report information. The processor is configured to, when the communicator starts receiving the report information, determine whether the vehicle is stoppable, and when determining that the vehicle is stoppable, execute vehicle stop control of stopping the vehicle and keeping the vehicle stopped until the reception of the report information is completed.

  • Patent number: 11541864
    Abstract: A vehicle includes a high-voltage system circuit including a high-voltage battery and an inverter, a low-voltage system circuit including a low-voltage battery and an updater, a DC-DC converter coupled between the two circuits, and a controller. The inverter converts DC electric power supplied from the high-voltage battery into AC electric power and outputs the AC electric power to a motor. The low-voltage battery has a lower output voltage than the high-voltage battery. The updater updates a program of an update-target device by using electric power supplied from the low-voltage or high-voltage battery. The DC-DC converter reduces in voltage output electric power of the high-voltage battery and then supplies the electric power to the low-voltage system circuit. When the updater starts updating of the program by using the electric power reduced in voltage, the controller limits operation of the inverter in response to the start of the updating of the program.
