A processor unit (3) is configured for executing an MPC algorithm (13) for model predictive control of a motor vehicle (1). The MPC algorithm (13) includes a longitudinal dynamic model (14) of the motor vehicle (1) and a cost function (15) to be minimized. The cost function (15) includes multiple terms, a first term of which represents an output of the cooling pump (28). In addition, the processor unit (3) is configured for, by executing the MPC algorithm (13) as a function of the longitudinal dynamic model (14), ascertaining a speed trajectory of the motor vehicle (1) situated within a prediction horizon and simultaneously ascertaining a pump operating value trajectory situated within the prediction horizon such that the first term of the cost function (15) is minimized.
