The invention relates to a method for ascertaining dynamic variables of a vehicle (1), a plurality of sensors (22) being provided at different installation locations in the vehicle (1), each sensor ascertaining a value of at least one local dynamic variable of the vehicle (1) that is defined with respect to a predetermined vehicle axis (Z); wherein the method comprises: ascertaining a value of a global dynamic variable of the vehicle (1) that is defined with respect to a roll or pitch axis (X, Y) of the vehicle (1) on the basis of the values of the local dynamic variable and taking into consideration at least two coordinate values of each installation location. The invention furthermore relates to a control device (24) for a vehicle (1) and to an arrangement (10) comprising such a control device (24).
