A system for controlling the speed of a vehicle, the system being operable to cause the vehicle to accelerate from a first speed v_actual to a second speed v_set-speed in accordance with a selected one of a plurality of acceleration profiles, e.g. A1, the profile being selected in dependence on a selected one of a plurality of vehicle operating/driving modes. The operating/driving modes are selected using a dial 165 of a driving mode controller 27 and each corresponds to particular driving conditions which are linked to types of terrain which may include grass/gravel/snow (GGS) mode, mud and ruts (MR) mode etc. The controller 27 is connected to a low speed progress (LSP) system 12 having an evaluator unit 40 which is configured to determine from data stored in memory 45 a required rate of acceleration for the different terrain 1-5. Reference is also made to a system and/or method of controlling a speed of a vehicle using acceleration profiles or characteristic profiles or prescribed rates. |
