Abstract
A method and apparatus are disclosed for informing a driver of a motor vehicle (e.g., a single-track motor vehicle), having at least one electric motor for driving and decelerating an axle of the motor vehicle and a control unit for controlling the electric motor. In the method, a deceleration request is continuously captured at the axle by way of a braking element, an acceleration request is continuously captured at the axle by way of a throttle grip or an accelerator pedal, and current operating parameters are continuously captured by way of a sensor system. The captured deceleration request and/or acceleration request and/or the captured current operating parameters is/are compared with limit values stored in the control unit. The driver is then informed, using at least one indication or means for informing the driver, if one of the limit values is reached and/or exceeded.
