A method for predictive control of a cruise control system of a motor vehicle in which a selection is made from a variety of control variants in order to set a target speed with respect to a stretch of road ahead. In so doing, the selection is made as a function of a gradient profile of the stretch of road ahead. In order to now implement an optimum predictive control with respect to fuel consumption with low complexity, the gradient profile is segmented through allocation to gradient ranges, which are determined as a function of the target speed. A respectively suitable control variant is then selected on the basis of at least one segment of the gradient profile.
