A vehicle-to-vehicle communication apparatus includes a host vehicle information storage unit, a receiver, a provisional information generator, and an output controller. Based on vehicle information received by the receiver, the provisional information generator regards narrow vehicles determined as satisfying predetermined conditions as a single provisional vehicle. One condition is that client vehicles and a host vehicle running on the lane of the same running direction include more than one narrow vehicle. Another condition is that no wide vehicle is in a region formed by line segments connecting the narrow vehicles with one another. The provisional information generator generates provisional information of the provisional vehicle from sets of vehicle information of the narrow vehicles which are regarded as the provisional vehicle. The output controller outputs the provisional information.
