To provide an electric vehicle wherein deterioration in a power storage device mounted therein can be suppressed and the life of the power storage device can be lengthened.
The electric vehicle includes a vehicle body 1 that is moved along a preset path 4 using electric power; and the power storage device 13 that stores the electric power. The capacitance of the power storage device 13 is so set that the following is implemented, when the power storage device 13 is charged in any of multiple places 3 on the path 4 where it can be charged, and increase/decrease in SOC that is equivalent to the state of charge of the power storage device 13 on the path 4 stays within a predetermined range including the optimum SOC (E0) of the power storage device 13. However, the power storage device 13 includes a secondary battery, and the predetermined range is preferably the range of ±10% of the optimum SOC (E0).
