A motor vehicle with an automatically settable front wing and an automatically settable rear wing, each of which is settable under the control of an actuator. Owing to the incident flow of air at the front axle, a downforce at the front axle (FDF) can be set by positioning the front wing. Owing to the incident flow of air at the rear axle, a downforce at the rear axle (RDF) can be set by positioning the rear wing. A resultant downforce (DF) acting through a point (CoP) can be generated and an aero balance (AB) can be set. The rear wing and/or the front wing can be set automatically in dependence on an operating state of the motor vehicle such that a predetermined downforce (FDF) at the front axle, a predetermined downforce (RDF) at the rear axle, a predetermined resultant downforce (DF) and/or a predetermined aero balance (AB) is obtained.

A drive system includes at least two drive devices, at least one of which is electric, that drive at least two drive axles, a power electronics system, an energy storage arrangement, and a control device. The control device includes a drive control module for providing a recuperation limiting value for each electric drive, a recuperation control module for combining the recuperation limiting values to form a maximum recuperation total limiting value, and a brake control module for providing a total braking torque requested by a driver or assistance system, such that it derives a recuperation total torque that is less than the recuperation total limiting value and also derives recuperation partial torques for each electric drive. In the case of a total braking torque that is greater than the recuperation total limiting value, the brake control module generates a hydraulic brake pressure and transmits it to the brake system.
