"textContent": "A vehicle has an accelerator pedal in communication with a prime mover, a transmission, and a controller. The controller is configured to, in response to receiving a first input indicative of a vehicle state and a second input indicative of a curve along a vehicle path within a predetermined time interval, downshift the transmission and modify a driver torque request map associated with the accelerator pedal to reduce a percentage of pedal travel associated with positive drive torque. A method of controlling a vehicle includes downshifting a transmission and modifying a driver torque request map associated with an accelerator pedal to reduce a percentage of pedal travel associated with positive drive torque when a vehicle state and a curve from an electronic horizon system predict a vehicle lateral acceleration in the curve being above a first threshold value.",
