A method for operating a motor vehicle, with a drive device for providing a driving torque as well as a detection device for detecting at least one other motor vehicle up ahead. An automatic length guidance of the motor vehicle is carried out. In this case, it is provided that, in the framework of the length guidance, a distance of the motor vehicle from the other motor vehicle is adjusted to a nominal distance. The nominal distance corresponds to a distance setting at constant distance, and starting from the distance setting, it is increased in the event of a distance change resulting from a positive acceleration of the other motor vehicle, and it is reduced in the event of a distance change resulting from a negative acceleration of the other motor vehicle.
