Zusammenfassung:	The present disclosure relates to determining a following distance, between a vehicle and a vehicle travelling ahead. According to a first aspect, the disclosure relates to a method that comprises obtaining an amount of energy required to propel the vehicle along the upcoming road as a function of following distance to the vehicle travelling ahead and predicting, based on brake actuation performed by the vehicle during a previous time period, one or more driving disadvantages that will be caused by braking along an upcoming road as a function of the following distance. The method further comprises determining the following distance, based on the obtained amount and on the predicted driving disadvantages caused by braking along the upcoming road. The disclosure also relates to a corresponding control arrangement and computer program, and to a vehicle comprising the control arrangement.
