Abstract

Disclosed is a method for steering a vehicle to be parked in reverse into a parking gap where a nominal parking trajectory of the vehicle is determined by a control unit and where a steering angle of the steered wheels of the vehicle that must be set for negotiating the parking gap is determined on the basis of the nominal parking trajectory. The nominal parking trajectory (yB(x)) is determined on the basis of a position of the vehicle from two reference trajectories (yLower(x); yUpper(x)), and the reference trajectories (yLower(x); yUpper(x)) represent parking trajectories for parking, starting from different start points.
