Abstract
Methods, systems, devices and apparatuses for a driveforce speed control system for a vehicle. The driveforce speed control system includes a sensor configured to detect a speed limit, and an electronic control unit (ECU) coupled to the sensor. The ECU is configured to calculate a road load and a mass condition, determine a speed limit based on the sensor, and activate a speed control based on the road load, the mass condition, and the speed limit.
