ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a method for controlling and regulating the drive train of a vehicle, comprising a drive unit, a transmission and an output unit. The transmission has controllable free-wheel units corresponding with pairs of toothed wheels for disengaging or engaging an old or a new gear and a clutch mounted on the output side. In the presence of a shift command for carrying out a higher traction shift, the transmission capacity of the clutch is adjusted in a manner such that a current drive torque of the drive unit applied to said clutch is transmitted to the output unit and the clutch exhibits at least an approximately slip-free state. When a higher traction shift exists, an operative connection is suddenly created between a controllable free-wheel unit and a corresponding pair of toothed wheels of the new gear, and the operative connection of the old gear is at least almost simultaneously canceled.
