Abstract

A method for controlling an internal combustion engine of a vehicle makes possible an acceleration of the shift operation especially of an automatic transmission or of an automated manually shifted transmission of the vehicle. In a shift operation, an operating state quantity of the engine is pregiven. This operating state quantity can be especially an engine output torque (MDES) or an engine rpm (NMOTDES). Furthermore, a torque reserve (MRES1, MRES2, MRES3) is pregiven for a rapid adjustment of the pregiven operating state quantity.
