A vehicle device for an autonomous vehicle configured to charge a battery by an external power source during propulsion while preventing a deterioration of the battery. In the control device for the autonomous vehicle, a controller (22) detects a charging zone ( step S3) where the electric storage device can be charged by the external power source (22), and restricts at least any one of a chargingof the electric storage device (19) and a discharging of electricity from the electric storage device (19) so as to limit a load factor of the electric storage device (19) to be smaller than a predetermined limit value when the vehicle (Ve) passes through the charging zone (step s10).
