A method for monitoring a ground clearance beneath a motor vehicle is disclosed. On the underbody of the motor vehicle, a plurality of ultrasonic transceivers are arranged spaced apart from one another. The method includes sending a transmission signal from a first ultrasonic transceiver, receiving a reflected transmission signal with a second ultrasonic transceiver, repeating the sending and receiving steps, determining a profile of a ground beneath the vehicle based on the echo signals, and determining a minimum ground clearance by comparing the ground profile with the underbody profile of the motor vehicle. Different pairs consisting of a first and a second ultrasonic transceiver are selected to receive a respective echo signal.
