Abstract
A method for driving a vehicle which has a gearbox connected to a combustion engine and the gearbox is capable of being set to a number of different transmission ratios in order to deliver motive force to a driveshaft for propulsion of the vehicle. The vehicle is arranged for driving in at least a first mode and a second mode, such that in the first mode the gearbox is switched to a low transmission ratio and in the second mode the combustion engine is disconnected from the at least one driveshaft. When the vehicle is being driven in a situation where there is or will within a specific time be a reduced need for motive force for the vehicle, the method determines whether the vehicle should be driven according to the first mode or the second mode, on the basis of an ambient parameter.
