Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for determining a desired speed of a vehicle (), preferably an autonomous vehicle. The vehicle comprises a shock absorber arrangement (), preferably an hydraulic shock absorber arrangement, having an elastic hysteresis. The method comprises—obtaining () a reference value indicative of the energy dissipated by the shock absorber arrangement () in a reference driving condition of a vehicle and—determining () a speed of the vehicle for which the value indicative of the energy dissipated by the shock absorber arrangement () in a similar driving condition is expected to fall within a predetermined energy dissipation range, using said reference value.
