Audi TTS Shelley
Audi has teamed up with Stanford University to create an autonomous TTS, nicknamed “Shelley”, after one of the most successful female rally drivers Michele Mouton.
Shelley’s being developed to climb Colorado’s Pikes Peak without any driver intervention during the annual hill climb next July.
Shelley uses sensors technology and highly advanced algorithms not only be able to drive itself up the hills, but also to keep it safe.
It is fitted with safety systems that can shut down the car automatically if things get dangerous whereby the operator can shut it down remotely from 20 miles away.
