Eco Factor: Zero-emission electric vehicle betters its own world record by running 1000km without recharging.
Last month we reported about the Mira EV making a world record by traveling 345 miles (555.6km) on a single recharge. The car has now made another world record by traveling 1003.184km without a recharge. The zero-emission vehicle is powered by 8320 cylindrical lithium-ion batteries supplied by Sanyo.
The record was created during May 22 to 23, 2010, by a team of drivers at Japan Electric Vehicle Club, a civic group based in Tokyo. The car ran for 27 and half hours at around 40kph on average. The team will soon ask the Guinness World Records to officially recognize the drive.
