Abstract
A method is provided for operating a motor vehicle which has at least one electric machine as a driving device. The method includes examining a current driving situation to determine whether a target position can be reached with a target speed by coasting; displaying a message to a driver of the motor vehicle if the target position can be reached by coasting; detecting a reaction time of the driver from the message up to the initiation of a coasting process by the driver; and actuating the electric machine as a generator to generate a deceleration torque if the reaction time exceeds a predefinable limiting value.
