VW Touareg: Best robot ever!

VW Touareg
Maybe you remember Stanley's victory at the DARPA Grand Challenge. Stanley is a driver-less robot car based on a VW Touareg.

The Stanford Racing Team's autonomous vehicle is a modified Volkswagen Touareg that can scan any terrain and pick out a drivable course to a preset destination. Cup holders optional.
