Trap or reality? An electric car breaks the record for 900 km without recharging.

Over time, we have been able to observe, especially in Spain's largest cities , how electric cars have gradually gained prominence following the significant restrictions that have been implemented to reduce polluting gases and combat climate change.

For this reason, the most cutting-edge vehicle companies set to work to innovate and bring to the automotive market the most innovative, efficient electric car with an extraordinary range , even reaching 1,000 kilometers, as has been the case with a Swedish model.

A record autonomy

The Polestar 3 model has become the ultimate electric SUV after traveling an impressive 930 kilometers and setting a new world record. It's worth noting that it achieved this feat without ever stopping to recharge a battery that, under normal conditions, was designed to last 706 kilometers.

As detailed in the Guinness World Records certificate, the Polestar 3, which had up to three drivers on board to achieve the objective, completed a 935.44 kilometer route in 22 hours and 57 minutes on "public roads in the United Kingdom", specifically in the Norwich area, and in various "weather conditions, including rain ".

What was their average speed?

According to the information, and calculating the average speed based on the distance/time, he completed the journey at approximately 41 kilometers per hour , with an average consumption of 12.1 kWh/100 km. However, there are some doubts surrounding the record, since a certain distance, under normal conditions and on roads with a speed limit of 90 kilometers per hour , is usually covered in approximately 10 to 12 hours.

Finally, it's also worth noting that they started the trip at approximately 2:00 a.m., when the battery is less affected by weather conditions (whether heat or cold). This also means they avoided the heavy traffic —and all the attendant issues (traffic jams, accidents, etc.)—in the hottest areas of the city.
