Original Abstract Submitted

A method of display control is a method of control of display by an ECU of a vehicle and a CPU of a management server, the ECU controlling an HMI that shows information on a plurality of replacement stations for replacement with a battery to be mounted on a vehicle. The method includes specifying for each replacement station, by the CPU of the management server, reference information on a degree of deterioration when a user selects the battery that is replaceable, the battery being stored at a replacement station that satisfies a prescribed condition among the plurality of replacement stations and controlling, by the ECU of the vehicle, the HMI to show the reference information together with information on the replacement station. The user can select the replacement station in consideration of the degree of deterioration of the battery.
