Record-Breaking Electric Mini Racer Achieves Mind-Blowing Acceleration Speeds
TL;DR Summary
Students from the Academic Motorsports Club Zürich at ETH Zürich and Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts have built an electric mini racer, named "mythen," that can accelerate from 0 to 62 mph in just 0.956 seconds, setting a new Guinness World Record. The 309-pound vehicle utilizes a lightweight carbon and aluminum honeycomb chassis, a specialized powertrain with 326 horsepower, and a vacuum cleaner-like suction system to stay glued to the ground. This achievement highlights the incredible capabilities of electric motor-powered drivetrains and the ongoing advancements in aerodynamics.
