A computer-implemented method of controlling future braking capacity of a vehicle travelling along a road, the vehicle having onboard batteries that are configured to absorb energy from regenerative braking. The method comprises acquiring prediction data indicative of how much braking capacity will be needed for the vehicle in an upcoming downhill slope in which a regenerative braking event is anticipated; controlling, based on the acquired prediction data, the application of mechanical and/or resistor brakes of the vehicle before said upcoming downhill slope, thereby increasing the propulsion power needed to propel the vehicle at maintained speed, and controlling a traction motor of the vehicle so that the vehicle is propelled at maintained speed while the mechanical and/or resistor brakes are applied, thereby reducing the state of charge (SOC) of the onboard batteries and enabling the onboard batteries to subsequently absorb energy from said anticipated regenerative braking event.
