A motor vehicle cruise control system having an input for entering a desired vehicle speed. A vehicle speed deviation having a range both above and below the desired vehicle speed is entered. A memory at least temporarily saves a highway topography data set for a highway currently being traversed by a motor vehicle. A controller distinguishes an approaching highway topography change from a current highway topography condition using data from the highway topography data set; and calculates a modified vehicle speed having increased fuel economy for traversing the highway topography change compared to a fuel economy at a selected vehicle speed for the current highway topography condition and to change the vehicle speed to the modified vehicle speed having the increased fuel economy prior to reaching the upcoming highway topography change.
