1. A guidance system of an electric mobility vehicle comprising:
a registration section in which replacement places of replacement batteries for the electric mobility vehicle are registered,
an estimation section that estimates a possible travel distance of the electric mobility vehicle from a battery remaining capacity of the electric mobility vehicle,
a display section that displays replacement places within a range of the estimated possible travel distance of the electric mobility vehicle among the replacement places of the replacement batteries registered in the registration section on map information,
a destination input section to which a destination headed by the electric mobility vehicle is input, and
a selection section that selects a replacement place of the replacement battery based on the estimated possible travel distance of the electric mobility vehicle and the destination input to the destination input section, wherein
the selection section is configured to select a replacement place, among the replacement places registered in the registration section, in order of priority: (1) to be reachable under the battery remaining capacity, (2) charging rate of renewable energy, and (3) to be in a direction closer to a direction of the destination from the current location of the electric mobility vehicle.
