The invention relates to vehicle engine high-speed starting and stopping control method and system based on an active shutdown mode. The method comprises steps of: 200, making an engine work normally; 201, judging whether the current speed is zero, if so, executing 202 and if not, returning to 200; 202, judging the current gear, executing 203 if the gear is gear N, executing 204 if the gear is gear D and keeping idling if the gear is gear P; 203, judging the setting time of the gear N, executing 205 if the setting time is larger than a demarcate limit value, and otherwise, returning to 200; 204, judging if the last speed is larger than a certain demarcate limit value, if so, executing 205, and if not, returning to 200; and 205, judging the safety factor information of the current engine, executing 217 to shut down the engine if reaching a safe value, and returning to 200 if not reaching the safe value . The control system comprises a signal acquisition unit and a signal control unit, wherein the signal acquisition unit comprises an engine safety factor information acquisition module and a gear information acquisition module. Therefore, the invention can realize high-speed startingand stopping of the engine by a controller according to the working condition.
