Abstract
The invention is directed to a method and an arrangement for controlling the speed of a vehicle. The actual speed of the vehicle is determined and a desired speed and/or limit speed is pregiven. Furthermore, an engine drag torque controller and/or a drive slip controller are provided. The deviation between desired and/or limit and actual speed is supplied to at least one of these controllers. In the active speed control operation, at least one of these controllers influences an output quantity of the drive unit in dependence upon the speed deviation. In the active road speed limit operation, the drive slip controller influences an output quantity of the drive unit in dependence upon the speed deviation.
