@chinaminutes: China’s BYD has secured two Guinness World Records after its Yangwang U9 Xtreme electric hypercar reached an astonishing 503.17 km/h (312.65 mph) on a public highway in Abu Dhabi, UAE. The achievement earned the hypercar two titles: 🏆 Fastest production car: Highest speed recorded in a single-direction run. 🏆 Fastest electric production car: Highest speed recorded by an electric vehicle in the same category. Driven by German racing driver Marc Basseng and powered by four electric motors producing nearly 3,000 horsepower, the U9 Xtreme became the first production car to break the 500 km/h barrier. The feat was also officially recognised by the FIA, marking a major milestone for electric vehicle technology. #hypercar #worldrecord #supercars #electriccar #cartok
