The GreenTeam students are still in the game and set a new world record with their electric single-seater.
From 0 to 100 km/h in less than two seconds, almost everyone claims to know how to do it. For the moment, only Tesla manages to really approach it with la Model S Plaid, which borders on the limits of physics. But we shouldn’t forget the German students of the GreenTeam, who have just set the clocks back on time.
And the hands of said chrono are formal: their electric single-seater has just signed a 0 to 100 km/h in 1.416 s! A time validated by the Guinness Book, since this pocket rocket has just won a world acceleration record, all categories combined, for an electric car. Electric, yes, because we are still far from Top Fuel dragsters, considered the fastest machines on earth with 0 to 100 km/h in less than a second.
A carbon single-seater with a ratio of 0.60 kg/hp
This E0711-11 Evo prototype is therefore a leap from the first test in 2015, where he performed the same exercise in 1.779 s. An eternity in the world of automotive performance. To achieve this, the students of the University of Stuttgart have revised their copy by grafting their 145 kg bathtub on Hoosier tires to a 241 hp (180 kW) mechanism. Even the Wolf TSC-FS, big winner of Pikes Peak this year, dreams of such a maddening power-to-weight ratio, while the thrust of 2.5 g can make that of a Formula 1 blush (given for 2 g on average ).
Electric traction once once more shows the field of possibilities it opens up in terms of automotive performance, as it has already done in various representations or motorsport.
