Abstract
An exemplary method is described for influencing the moment delivered by a vehicle drive of a vehicle. In this method a change in load which occurs during cornering of the vehicle is detected, upon detection a minimum value of an intervention quantity which influences the torque delivered is determined and the vehicle drive is acted upon by the minimum value of the intervention quantity for a selectable period of time. To achieve an improvement in the change in load performance of a vehicle in cornering and an improvement in the driving performance of the vehicle in coasting operation, the minimum value determined for the intervention quantity and/or the period of time is corrected as a function of the coefficient of friction of the road surface on which the vehicle is traveling and/or as a function of a deceleration of the vehicle.
