MUNICH - Lucid Group, an electric vehicle producer, has set a new Guinness World Records title for the longest journey by an electric car on a single charge.
Covering a range of 1,205 kilometers (~749 miles) without charging, the Lucid Air Grand Touring conducted its record-breaking journey between St. Moritz, Switzerland and Munich, Germany, including alpine roads, highways, and secondary roads.
Lucid beat the previous record by 160 kilometers. Until now, the longest journey of 1,045 kilometers was set in June 2025
At the heart of the Lucid Air Grand Touring lies Lucid's proprietary electric powertrain technology. With a range of 960 kilometers and 13.5 kWh/100km, the Lucid Air Grand Touring delivers 831 PS, with capabilities of reaching a top speed of 270 kilometers per hour (about 168 mph). With ultra-fast charging, the battery can gain up to 400 kilometers of range in just 16 minutes.
The new title marks the second successful cooperation of Lucid with Umit Sabanci and his team, a London-based entrepreneur with a passion for setting and breaking Guinness World Records.
In 2024, Sabanci set the record for the most countries visited on a single charge in a production battery electric vehicle, crossing nine countries – also in a Lucid Air Grand Touring.
