Abstract
A method for controlling a clutch which pertains to a vehicle and which is operated by means of a vehicle control system. The vehicle is provided with an engine, and a driver of the vehicle requests propulsive force from the engine. A first propulsive force requested by the driver and transmitted via a clutch involves determining whether the clutch slips while transmitting the first propulsive force. When the clutch slips during transmission of the first propulsive force, the propulsive force transmitted by the clutch increases. The invention relates also to a system and a vehicle.
