  • as a function of specific data of a target object driving ahead, determining a first desired pre-acceleration value for achieving a predefined distance with respect to the target object driving ahead;

    as a function of specific data of a front object driving ahead, which front object is traveling in front of the target object, determining a second desired pre-acceleration value for achieving a predefined distance with respect to the front object driving ahead;

    determining a desired acceleration value for the motor vehicle from the first desired pre-acceleration value and the second desired pre-acceleration value by weighting the first and second desired pre-acceleration values; and

    outputting a torque demand based on the desired acceleration value to a drive unit or a brake unit of the motor vehicle.
