The present disclosure provides a vehicle control device that enables a driver to utilize an ADAS more effectively. A vehicle control device 10 is mounted in a vehicle and is connected to an information processing device 20 external to the vehicle, in such a way that information can be communicated. The vehicle is provided with: an external environment sensor 1 for sensing external environment information around the vehicle; a vehicle sensor 2 for sensing vehicle information relating to the traveling state of the vehicle; a position sensor 3 for sensing position information of the vehicle; and an ADAS actuator 7 for carrying out driving assistance of the vehicle. The vehicle control device 10 includes a proficiency level processing unit 12, an assistance difficulty calculating unit 13, a travel history processing unit 14, and an advice content determining unit 15. The proficiency level processing unit 12 calculates a driving tendency and a proficiency level for the driver of the vehicle on the basis of the external environment information and the vehicle information. The assistance difficulty calculating unit 13 calculates an assistance difficulty on the basis of the driving tendency and the vehicle information. The travel history processing unit 14 acquires, from the information processing device 20, the proficiency level, a driving assistance intervention frequency, a driving assistance usage rate, and a behavior variation, for the drivers of a plurality of vehicles. The advice content determining unit 15 calculates an assistance utilization degree on the basis of the assistance difficulty, the driving assistance usage rate, the behavior variation, and the intervention frequency, and causes advice content based on the assistance difficulty and the assistance utilization degree to be uttered.
