First Autonomous Driving Lap Record | Nürburgring Nordschleife | Xiaomi YU7 GT | 10:29.483

Xiaomi’s YU7 GT has just made history at the Nürburgring Nordschleife, completing the first officially timed autonomous lap on the circuit. The SUV covered the full 20.8-kilometer layout in 10:29.483, navigating all 73 corners without a driver on board. That makes this one of the most unusual laps ever recorded at the Nürburgring, not just because of the time, but because of how it was achieved. What do you make of an autonomous lap like this — an engineering showcase, or a new kind of record?
