APPARATUS, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR CONTROLLING A VEHICLE

A method for controlling connection of a driveline within a vehicle includes detecting a deceleration and/or a brake demand while the vehicle is operating in a coasting mode and the vehicle speed is above a threshold speed, determining whether the driveline can be reconnected within a threshold time, and controlling the driveline so that the driveline is not reconnected if the driveline cannot be reconnected within the threshold time.
