Abstract:
If a vehicle with a user on board becomes undrivable due to insufficient power, a server uses first information, second information, and third information to set a vehicle-switching location between a current location of the vehicle and a destination, and dispatches a vehicle to the vehicle-switching location. When the vehicle joins the vehicle at the vehicle-switching location, the vehicle travels toward the destination with the user on board. After the user gets off the vehicle, the vehicle travels by self-driving toward a charging station. The first information is positional information of the charging station. The second information is information on a self-driving route of the vehicle from the vehicle-switching location to the charging station. The third information is information indicating reliability about whether or not the vehicle can arrive at the charging station by self-driving.

Claim (Index 1):
A vehicle dispatch system comprising:\n a first vehicle and a second vehicle, each of which is an electric vehicle including a power storage device and configured to perform self-driving; and a server configured to communicate with the first vehicle and the second vehicle, if the first vehicle with a user on board becomes undrivable due to insufficient power in the power storage device before arriving at a destination, the server being configured to:\n use first information, second information, and third information to set a vehicle-switching location between a current location of the first vehicle and the destination, the vehicle-switching location being a location where the user switches from the first vehicle to the second vehicle; and \n send an instruction for dispatching the second vehicle to the vehicle-switching location, \n after the second vehicle joins the first vehicle at the vehicle-switching location in accordance with the instruction, the second vehicle traveling toward the destination with the user on board, after the user gets off the first vehicle, the first vehicle traveling by self-driving toward charging equipment capable of charging the power storage device, the first information being positional information of the charging equipment, the second information being information on a self-driving route of the first vehicle from the vehicle-switching location to the charging equipment, the third information being information on an index value indicating reliability about whether or not the first vehicle can arrive at the charging equipment by self-driving by the self-driving route, the server being configured to determine the vehicle-switching location using the index value.
