A method for localizing a vehicle using vehicle-to-X communications is disclosed which provides improved position data. Signals from at least one object arranged outside a vehicle are received using a receiving unit arranged in the vehicle. A signal strength of the received signals is respectively measured and first position data of the vehicle is obtained by utilizing a determined position of using object. Second position data is determined based on the first position data. The signal strength or a change in the received signal strength is incorporated into the determination of the second position data.
