Abstract

A method and an arrangement for controlling the drive unit of a vehicle make possible a central coordination of various reserve torque requests. A reserve for an output quantity of the drive unit is formed. Various reserve requests of different physical significance can be compared to each other and a resulting reserve request is selected in dependence upon the comparison.
