The invention concerns a method for controlling regeneration of an exhaust gas aftertreatment system (7, 8) of an internal combustion engine (4) arranged on a vehicle (1), wherein the vehicle (1) is provided with a control system configured to control the regeneration in at least a first regeneration strategy mode comprising a first set of predetermined actions to be taken for controlling initialization and performance of regeneration processes. The method comprises the steps of: (100)—adapting the control system so as to be configured to alternatively control the regeneration in a second regeneration strategy mode, wherein the second regeneration strategy mode comprises a second set of predetermined actions to be taken for controlling initialization and performance of regeneration processes, and wherein the first and second regeneration strategy modes differ from each other in that the first and second set of predetermined regeneration control actions differ from each other; (200)—collecting, during operation of said vehicle (1) or of another vehicle, data on an exhaust gas regeneration capability of said vehicle (1) or the other vehicle as a function of time; and (300)—evaluating, based on the collected data and the difference between the first and second regeneration strategy modes, whether the first or the second regeneration strategy mode is the most suitable for said vehicle (1) if operating under conditions corresponding to the operational conditions for the vehicle for which data were collected. The invention also concerns a vehicle arranged to be the subject of such a method and to a computer program product, a computer readable medium and a control system related to performance of the steps of the above method.
