The present invention refers to a method for performing pre-boost acceleration prior to overtaking a preceding third party vehicle (34) driving on a road (26) with multiple driving lanes (28, 30, 32) for driving in a forward driving direction (34) with an ego vehicle (10), wherein the ego vehicle (10) is following the preceding third party vehicle (36) on an ego lane (28) with an initial distance (d) to the ego vehicle (10), comprising the steps of detecting third party vehicles (38) on the neighboring driving lane (30), determining an acceleration profile with an acceleration phase for accelerating the ego vehicle (10) compared to the preceding third party vehicle (36) on the ego lane (28) while following the preceding third party vehicle (36), wherein an acceleration of the acceleration phase is determined based on the detection of third party vehicles (38) on the neighboring driving lane (30), a maximum acceleration value and a maximum change of acceleration, receiving a trigger for performing the pre-boost acceleration prior to overtaking the preceding third party vehicle (36) driving on the ego lane (28) using the neighboring driving lane (30), and performing the pre-boost acceleration according to the determined acceleration profile. The present invention also refers to a driving support system (12) for use in an ego vehicle (10) for following a preceding third party vehicle (36), in particular for performing adaptive cruise control, when driving on a road (26) with multiple driving lanes (28, 30, 32) for driving in a forward driving direction (34) of the ego vehicle (10), wherein the driving support system (12) is adapted to perform the method for pre-boost acceleration prior to overtaking a preceding third party vehicle (34) according to the above method.
