Abstract
A control system and method are provided for a motor vehicle having an electronic control unit, by which the drive torque of a drive unit can be variably distributed, as required, to at least two axles. A drive-oriented control can be specified for the purpose of a primarily single-axle drive. By way of a comparison unit, preferably on the basis of a circle of forces, a driving-dynamic desired parameter demanded particularly on a basis of the driver's intention is compared with a driving-dynamic potential parameter. A change from the drive-oriented control to a driving-dynamics-oriented control for the purpose of a primarily multi-axle drive takes place only when a defined threshold value, for example, 70%, is exceeded relative to the driving-dynamic potential parameter, for example, a limit range of the circle of forces.
