Disclosed are a device and method for controlling a traveling characteristic of a vehicle. The device includes: a user terminal configured to configure and display a screen for a setting mode, on which a parameter value that determines drivability and traveling characteristic of the vehicle is displayed and from which a driver performs a change and a setting to the displayed parameter value; a controller configured to be provided in the vehicle, to receive a parameter value that results from the driver performing the change and the setting, from the user terminal, and to apply the received parameter value to control logic for controlling a traveling state of the vehicle; and a communication unit configured to be provided in the vehicle and to make a connection between the user terminal and the control unit in such a manner that transmission and reception of the parameter value are possible.

A control unit is presented for controlling a driving unit arranged for adjustment of one or more first air guiding flaps of a motorised vehicle between a first outer position and a second outer position. The control unit comprises a communication module for communicating with a vehicle control network for receiving first adjustment instructions for adjusting the first flap, a power supply module comprising an input power terminal for receiving power from a vehicle power network and a first output power terminal for supplying a first current to the driving unit. The control unit further comprises a current sensor module for sensing variations in the first supply current and a control module arranged to control the first supply current in accordance with the adjustment instructions and the sensed variations. By separating the control module from the driving unit, functionality of the control module may be shared over multiple driving units.
