VW Touareg: Fastest car in the qualification for the DARPA Grand Challenge

The Stanford Racing Team with its VW Touareg finished first in the first qualification for the DARPA Grand Challenge. The VW Touareg finished the round in just 10 minutes!

The first qualifying round of the DARPA Grand Challenge — the big, desert robot-off that comes with a $2 million grand prize — got underway in California yesterday. Fewer than half of the 16 vehicles that started the two-mile course finished, though one competitor, a Volkswagen Touareg named Stanley (don’t ask) breezed through it in 10 minutes. More qualifying rounds will take place before the Grand Challenge proper takes place on October 8.
