1. A system comprising a computing device having a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor such that the computing device is programmed to:
- collect data in a vehicle relating to a potential obstacle;
based at least in part on the collected data, identify an obstacle and determine at least one characteristic of the obstacle; and
determine at least one torque to be applied in a vehicle powertrain based at least in part on the at least one characteristic of the obstacle.
