Abstract: A method and system for identifying a vehicle type of a vehicle having an electric drive and a traction battery, in which a charging behavior of the vehicle that occurs during a current operation of charging the traction battery at a charging column is captured. A current charging profile is created for the current charging operation on the basis of the captured charging behavior. The current charging profile is compared with respective charging profiles which are retrievably stored in a storage unit and are each specific to a respective particular vehicle type. A probability of a presence of a particular vehicle type from the plurality of vehicle types is determined on the basis of the comparison. The vehicle type most likely to be present is identified as the vehicle type and the current charging operation is adapted to the vehicle type which is most likely to be present.
