The present invention relates to a control system, a method, a vehicle and a non‑transitory computer readable medium for receiving image data indicative of an image forward of the host vehicle 2 captured by an image capture means of the host vehicle. From the image data determining an anticipated reduced friction or surface-drag zone 5 and outputting a torque modification request in dependence on the determination of the anticipated reduced friction or surface-drag zone. The reduced friction of surface drag zone may be for instance a body of water such as a puddle and the torque modification may be a reduction of the torque demanded and the image capture means may be at least one camera. The control system may also utilize a wheel speed sensor that may detect an actual surface friction based on a sudden or unexpected change in wheel speed.
