Abstract
A method for switching a gear ratio of a switchable gear mechanism of a vehicle, which includes an electric motor for driving the vehicle, includes: generating a motor torque with the electric motor; determining an upcoming gear change; reducing the amount of the generated motor torque depending on the determined gear change; and changing the gear ratio of the switchable gear mechanism during a predetermined timespan according to the reduction in the amount of the generated motor torque. At least one motor torque pulse is generated by the electric motor during the predetermined timespan.
