A method for operating a drive-train of a vehicle, such as a municipal or agricultural utility vehicle, having at least one drive machine, a vehicle transmission with at least two gears, at least one drive axle and at least one auxiliary power take-off. The method includes controlling or regulating a supply of normal power from the drive machine as a function of a normal torque characteristic. Depending on the operating situation, supplying additional power to the at least one drive axle and/or to the at least one auxiliary power take-off. The supplied additional power is controlled or regulated as a function of operating situation dependent torque characteristics which are called up as a function of the selected gear at the time.

Since a maximum rotation speed of a second rotary machine is set to a lower value when a supercharging pressure is high than when the supercharging pressure is low, an engine torque decreases with an rotation speed of the second rotary machine which is relatively low and the rotation speed is less likely to fall into a high-rotation state. When the supercharging pressure is relatively low and the rotation speed is less likely to reach an upper-limit rotation speed of the second rotary machine, the maximum rotation speed is set to a relatively high value. Accordingly, the engine torque does not decrease to the rotation speed which is relatively high and power performance can be easily secured. As a result, it is possible to prevent a decrease in power performance due to the decrease in the engine torque and to prevent the rotation speed from falling into a high-rotation state.

A method for determining a longitudinal tire stiffness (K.sub.x) for at least one wheel on a motor vehicle while the motor vehicle is in operation, may include generating a sinusoidal modulation of an axle drive torque or wheel drive torque necessary for maintaining the current vehicle speed (ν), or a braking torque or recuperation torque necessary for maintaining the current braking power in at least one wheel for a sinusoidal excitation of a wheel rotational rate (ω), such that a sinusoidal oscillation in the wheel rotational rate is induced. The method may also include detecting the resulting sinusoidal oscillation in the wheel rotational rate, determining the amplitude (ω.sub.amp) of the oscillation in the wheel rotational rate induced, and determining longitudinal tire stiffness (K.sub.x) from the amplitude (ω.sub.amp).
