Method for operating a sensor device in a vehicle, and vehicle

A vehicle comprising:

• a temperature sensor whose signals can be transmitted;
• and
• a control device to receive signals transmitted from the temperature sensor and to, process data relating to a route lying in front of the vehicle, the control device configured to:
• change an evaluation of the signals as a function of the data relating to the route, and
• change smoothing of the signals as a function of the data relating to the route, and, in changing the smoothing of the signals:
• to attenuate the smoothing of the signals if the vehicle enters a section of the route for which the data relating to the route make it possible to infer that an outside temperature is reduced compared to a temperature of a preceding section of the route, and/or to boost the smoothing of the signals if the vehicle enters a section of the route for which the data relating to the route make it possible to infer that an outside temperature is raised compared to a temperature of a preceding section of the route.
