Controller for the drive train of a motor vehicle

摘要

A drive train controller of a motor vehicle has an engine controller for controlling the variables that influence the torque of the engine. The drive train controller also includes a transmission controller for controlling the gear shift operations of the automatic transmission. The transmission controller includes a detection circuit for determining the respective driving situation of the motor vehicle. The transmission controller changes the transmission ratio in a manner that is adaptively matched to the dynamics of the determined driving situation and/or the driver characteristics.
