Abstract

A method for controlling a transmission of a vehicle includes: determining, via an electronic controller, a predicted lateral G-force that will act on the vehicle while the vehicle moves along a road curve using image data from a front camera of the vehicle before the vehicle moves along the road curve; communicating, via the electronic controller, the predicted lateral G-force to a transmission controller; and and controlling, via the transmission controller, the transmission of the vehicle based on the predicted lateral G-force.
