A new world record has just been broken. It concerns the number of kilometers driven on a single charge by an electric utility vehicle.
While the previous record for distance on a single charge was set in the United States at 258.85 miles, or 416.57 kilometers, the Fiat E-Scudo broke this record with a total distance of 500.8 km (311.18 miles). To validate this record, cameras were installed inside the vehicle to independently verify the data in real-time via Webfleet.
An autonomous range of approximately 329 km
The vehicle used to set this record is the Fiat E-Scudo. It is equipped with a 75 kWh battery and has a range of 329 km, or 205 miles. However, as you saw above, the world record is now 500.8 km, or an autonomy multiplied by 1.5197. This corresponds to a distance of 6.4 km per kilowatt-hour. The total duration of the trip was 13 hours and 9 minutes.
The previous record was set in the United States. This one was set in the United Kingdom, specifically on the east coast of England. Beverly Wise, regional director of Webfleet for Bridgestone Mobility Solutions, expressed himself in a statement published by the brand.
“We are delighted to have become GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS holders. The previous record of 258.85 miles was established in the United States, and bringing it to the United Kingdom is a symbol of our national commitment to becoming a global leader in e-mobility.”
