The invention relates to a method for displaying driving modes of a vehicle (). The vehicle () can be operated in at least two different driving modes. In the method according to the invention, it is ascertained whether the vehicle () is being operated in a first or a second driving mode. In the first driving mode, a first actuator carries out a first action, and in the second driving mode, a second actuator carries out the first action. A first graphical element () which represents the first actuator and a second graphical element () which represents the second actuator are generated on a display surface (). Depending on whether the vehicle () is in the first or the second driving mode, a first graphical action element () which represents the first action is generated with the first () and/or second graphical element (). The invention further relates to a system () for displaying driving modes of a vehicle ().
