The invention relates to an electric vehicle and a control method therefor. The electric vehicle includes a voltage converter, a temperature sensor, and a control unit. The voltage converter performs bidirectional voltage conversion between an output electric path and one or both of first and second batteries, while allowing switching of an operating mode between a serial operating mode in which the first and second batteries are connected in series relative to the output electric path, and a parallel operating mode in which the first and second batteries are connected in parallel. The temperature sensor detects a temperature of each battery. The control unit switches the operating mode of the voltage converter. When the temperature of one battery is equal to or larger than a predetermined upper threshold value A, or equal to or smaller than a predetermined lower threshold value B, the control unit switches the operating mode of the voltage converter to the parallel operating mode.
