According to one embodiment, an electrode is provided. The electrode includes an active material-containing layer. The active material-containing layer includes an active material and a conductive agent. The active material contains primary particles of a niobium-titanium composite oxide. The conductive agent contains fibrous carbon. The primary particles have an average particle size of 0.3 μm or more and 2 μm or less. At least a part of a surface of the primary particles is coated with the fibrous carbon. A covering ratio of the primary particles by the fibrous carbon is 0.01% or more and 40% or less.
