Ford Mustang Mach-E Breaks Guinness World Record In Distance Travelled In One Charge
The Ford Mustang Mach-E has broken the Guinness World Record for the longest single trip taken in a production EV on a single charge.
On July 27, a UK-based team, sponsored by vehicle tracking software company WebFleet, travelled 932.84km over a 24 hour duration.
It beats the previous record set by Chinese EV-maker Zeekr in Hangzhou, China by about 10 km.
According to the team, the journey was “meticulously documented with independently verified video footage, odometer readings, GPS and battery-level data from Webfleet”.
The Mach-E chosen for the record run was the Premium extended-range model, which carries a 91kWh battery that feeds a single rear.
For those of you with range anxiety, even with the battery at zero percent, the vehicle travelled a further 33.8km.
The trip was across public roads in the UK and included a mix of road types.
The car debut in America in December 2020 and won the 2021 North American SUV of the Year Award.
The Mustang Mach-E is Ford’s first electric vehicle designed, from the beginning, to be fully electric. It’s also the first four-door vehicle Ford has ever given the Mustang name.
No idea if Ford will bring it to Malaysia since it has almost effectively exited the Malaysian market save for its ever-popular Ford Ranger.
Will this record convince you to get an EV? Or are you still team petrol? We know our answer.
