Zusammenfassung:	A cruise control system (20) for a motor vehicle and a method for controlling the target speed thereof. The cruise control system is adapted to control the engine so as to endeavour to keep the vehicle speed essentially equal to the target speed. The target speed is automatically and temp orarily increased from a basic value to a modified value when it is established that the following conditions are fulfilled: - it is detected that the vehicle e is descending a downhill slope, and - the driving resistance of the vehicle is positive.
