Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method for controlling a driveline of a vehicle, the driveline being operable in a plurality of driveline operating modes, wherein the driveline is configured to assume a current driveline operating mode basing its operation on topology data from a positioning system, each driveline operating mode being associated with a predefined driveline operating condition, wherein the method comprises obtaining a signal indicative of a loss of topology data; and controlling the driveline to change from the current driveline operating mode to an updated driveline operating mode providing an increased operational capacity of the driveline compared to the current driveline operating mode.
