A vehicle includes: a motor generator generating driving power for traveling of the vehicle; an ECU for controlling the motor generator; and an inclination detecting unit for detecting an inclination of a road surface. The ECU executes a driving power change operation that causes the vehicle to travel while switching between a first state (high output state) of the motor generator where first-level driving power is generated and a second state (low output state) of the motor generator where driving power smaller than that in the first state is generated. When it is recognized that the vehicle is traveling on a downhill, based on the inclination detected by the inclination detecting unit, the ECU sets the driving power in the first state to be smaller than that when the vehicle travels on a flat road.
