October 13, 2022

A team of students from the University of Stuttgart called the GreenTeam accelerated an electric car to 100 km / h in 1.416 seconds and set a Guinness record. The body is made of lightweight and durable carbon fiber, and the electric power plant delivers 180 kW of power to the four-wheel drive. The whole structure weighs only 145 kg. The pilot must be prepared, because during acceleration, the peak load reaches 2.5 g, which is higher than in Formula 1 cars and is comparable to the loads of astronauts at launch. The previous record for electric vehicles was 1.513 seconds and was set by the Swiss team AMZ Racing.
