Method for preventing roll-over of a motor vehicle by means of torque vectoring

Abstract

Systems and methods for preventing roll-over of a motor vehicle in the event of a transverse load change. The motor vehicle has an individual-wheel drive designed to drive a wheel that is loaded by the transverse load change independently of the at least one other wheel of the motor vehicle. One methods includes identifying a critical state of the motor vehicle in the event of a transverse load change, applying a drive torque by the individual-wheel drive to the motor vehicle wheel that is loaded by the transverse load change such that the wheel that is loaded by the transverse load change is caused to slip, and steering the motor vehicle wheel that is loaded by the transverse load change in the direction of the direction of travel such that a roll-over of the motor vehicle can be prevented.
