Detailed Solution

The minimum stopping distance is the same for both cars.
From the third equation of motion,
v2=u2 - 2as (Negative sign indicates there is retardation)
Initial velocity is the same both cars
Final velocity, v = 0 for both the cars.
            0 =u2 - 2as 
s= u22a
Since, initial velocity and the retardation is the same for both cars, the minimum stopping distance will be same for both the cars.
