Electric Car News: Porsche Breaks Fourth Guinness World Record
Porsche has set another Guinness Book world record, this time in its all-electric vehicle.
The luxury car company was going for the title of “fastest speed by a vehicle indoors.” Racer Leh Keen beat the current 86 MPH record in the Taycan car.
The Taycan has a max of 750 horse power, four-wheel drive, carbon-ceramic breaks, and can accelerate to 60 MPH in 2.6 seconds, according to Porsche’s press release.
Keen hit a top speed of 102.6 MPH.
All he had to do to beat the record, or even be considered for one, was start and finish at a standstill while all inside the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center that’s over one million square feet. The previous record has been in place for seven years, until now.
