Abstract
A method of controlling a traction of a vehicle, comprising the steps of reading a value determining a throttle opening and closing speed from a first throttle control map from which said throttle opening and closing speed are determined on the basis of a difference in speed between a driving and non-driving wheel speeds and of an acceleration of the driving wheel, and converting said value to an actual throttle opening and closing speed with a conversion rate corresponding to an acceleration of the non-driving wheel thereby controlling the throttle of the vehicle.
