Abstract
A method for operating a motor vehicle, in particular a passenger vehicle, having at least one drive engine and an automatic transmission. A motor vehicle with conventional shift transmission is imitated by providing a clutch pedal for separating the drive connection, a shift lever for the manual shifting of the gear ratios, and an electronic control unit, by which the functions of clutching and shifting are converted into corresponding control signals for the automatic transmission.
