The invention relates to a method for the automatic operation of a vehicle door (1), in particular a side door, or a rear hatch of a motor vehicle, from a first to a second position, by means of a drive (5; 26), connected to a controller (6), which acts on the vehicle door (1), by means of at last one transfer element (12; 30). The invention further relates to a device for carrying out said method. According to the invention, an automatically operated vehicle door (1) in the first position thereof, may be simply swung into the second position thereof at the same speed, even with differing street inclinations where the vehicle is standing, whereby, after activating the drive (5), the speed of the relevant vehicle door (1) is measured within a given angular range and compared with a set value curve. So long as the measured actual value for speed of the vehicle differs from the given set value curve, the speed of the door is changed until the speed as given by the set value curve is achieved.
