When Mercedes-Benz promised us a vehicle that could drive 620 miles on a single charge, we figured it might be another high-flung CES promise. Now we’re eating our words: the company’s Vision EQXX successfully completed a journey of 1,008 kilometers — approximately 626 miles — without stopping to refuel.
The Vision EQXX’s record-setting road trip began in Sindelfingen, Germany to Cassis, France, taking the scenic route through the Alps to enjoy the view. The trip was completed at regular road speeds, though the car did hit speeds of nearly 90 mph on the autobahn.
