At the Porsche Experience Center in Hockenheimring, Germany, the Porsche Taycan achieved the record for maximum drift with electric vehicles. On a wet circular test course that was easy to drift, the Taycan circulated for 55 minutes and ran 42.171km. This record is recognized as the official Guinness World Records record.
The record-breaking driver said that disabling the Taycan’s stability control would make it easier to put the car in a power slide. In the case of the RWD specification Taycan, it is explained that sufficient power can be stably used to maintain the drive. In addition, the Taycan’s low center of gravity and long wheelbase also play a part in creating a stable drift that is easy for drivers to control.
It was probably the driver himself who went around the circular course for nearly an hour while maintaining the most difficult drift in this record. No matter how much water you spray to keep the drift, there will be a change in tire grip for a week due to subtle bumps and bumps, and it is also necessary to continue fine-tuning the acceleration and steering wheel.
In addition, the Guinness rule defines drift as a condition in which there is a difference in Sokcho between the vehicle’s driving wheel and the ground speed. In the recording challenge, it is monitored whether the drift state can be maintained through a sensor or the like. Of course, this is the electric vehicle drift record set by the Taycan, and since no electric vehicle has challenged the past record, in extreme terms, even a few meters drift would have obtained Guinness certification.
For reference, the total vehicle drift record is 8 hours 374.17km achieved by the BMW M5 in 2018. If you continue to drift for 8 hours, you may run out of fuel, but the vehicle that achieved this record was fueled with a hose while another vehicle was also drifting to the vehicle that was drifting.
