Overview
- Audi announced that a production A6 Sportback e‑tron covered 831 miles (1,338 km) on a single charge in a Guinness World Records‑verified attempt.
- European rally champion Miko Marczyk drove the route across Poland in a 45‑hour effort that began on September 11 and ended between Toruń and Ciechocinek.
- Audi attributes the result to the A6’s slippery shape (Cd ~0.21) and a usable battery around 94.9 kWh, with the run logging an average consumption of about 7.09 kWh per 100 km.
- The attempt used public roads and included rush‑hour traffic, but Audi declined to disclose the car’s average speed and Marczyk employed specialist hypermiling techniques that limit how representative the figure is for everyday drivers.
- The record surpasses Lucid’s 2025 Guinness mark and illustrates how makers use controlled endurance runs to showcase engineering gains even though real‑world range for typical users will generally be much lower.
