The concept travelled 627.6 miles across the Arabian Peninsula with an impressive efficiency of 8.4 miles per kWh
The Mercedes Vision EQXX electric car concept has broken its own range and efficiency record, travelling 627.6 miles across the Arabian Peninsula with an impressive efficiency of 8.4 miles per kWh. It was the car’s third long-distance road trip, following two previous attempts in Europe, and the second time the sleek sports car has travelled for more than 1000km . This time, the Vision EQXX travelled 1010km in 14 hours and 42 minutes , at an average speed of 42.6mph .
Mercedes says the real goal was to maximise efficiency and research the thermal management of Mercedes’ specifically designed EV system. Mercedes also analysed the performance of the car’s solar roof, which consists of 117 solar cells and supports the high voltage system. Across the desert, the roof took in 1.8kWh of energy, which Mercedes says added around 15 miles of additional range.
