Abstract

A method for predicting, for a motor vehicle traveling on a first road segment, a future coefficient of friction of the vehicle on a second road segment. The method includes steps of obtaining operating parameters of the vehicle and at least one characteristic of the first road segment, of computing an indicator on the basis of the obtained operating parameters of the vehicle, of determining a frictional category of the vehicle according to the value of the computed indicator and of the at least one obtained characteristic of the road segment, of selecting a friction profile of the vehicle on the basis of the determined frictional category, and of determining a coefficient of friction of the vehicle by applying the selected profile to at least one characteristic of the second road segment. A device for implementing the prediction method is also disclosed.
