Abstract

A regeneration system of a combustion engine of a vehicle includes a speed control device configured to determine an acceleration time of the vehicle to a set speed, a NOx trap configured to reduce nitrogen oxides produced by the combustion engine, and a trigger configured to detect a loading level of the nitrogen oxides of the NOx trap in an exhaust gas produced by the combustion engine during operation. In further, the speed control device is configured to communicate with the trigger, wherein a regeneration of the NOx trap is configured to start in case the acceleration time of the vehicle to the set speed is at least equal to a regeneration time of the NOx trap at the loading level of the nitrogen oxides.
