Miko Marczyk broke another Guinness record. He drove 1,338 km in an electric Audi on a single charge

Miko Marczyk previously held one Guinness record. In 2025, he drove a fourth-generation Skoda Superb exactly 2,831 kilometers on one refueling, achieving an average fuel consumption of 2.6 liters per 100 kilometers. This time, the 30-year-old from Łódź, together with Volkswagen Financial Services, set themselves a new challenge, although from a similar category.

Marczyk broke another Guinness record by driving the longest distance in history in a mass-produced electric car on a single charge. Traveling across Poland, Miko achieved a distance of 1,338 kilometers. The record has already been officially approved by Guinness World Records judge Anouk de Timary. The previous record was held by Umit Sabanci, Kenneth Schofield and Fergal McGrath, who drove 1,205 kilometers in a Lucid Air Grand Touring car.

To break the record, I used the Audi A6 Sportback e-tron in the Performance version. This car has 367 horsepower and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.4 seconds. It has a battery with a net capacity of 94.9 kWh and is characterized by a very low aerodynamic drag index - and this gives great possibilities - up to approximately 776 kilometers of range according to the WLTP standard. In reality, however, you can travel much more with it, although the result of 1,338 kilometers is a pleasant surprise for me, emphasized Miko Marczyk.

The challenge started in the Polish Tatra Mountains. It was from here that Marczyk had previously embarked on several impressive attempts. During one of them, he covered the route from Zakopane to Krakow in a Škoda Octavia RS iV, using only a liter of fuel. Another time he reached the Baltic Sea from the Tatra Mountains in an electric Škoda Enyaq on a single charge. He then competed with his pilot, Szymon Gospodarczyk, to see who would reach the destination first. Szymon traveled by train, but Miko won the challenge.

Marczyk also started this Guinness Record attempt by loading the car at ORLEN Charge in Zakopane, taking advantage of the favorable terrain along the way. The route led through Kraków and then along the Vistula valley to Sandomierz. Then the driver drove through Puławy, Warsaw, Płock, Włocławek, Toruń, Grudziądz and Tricity, until he reached Hel. There he turned around and headed back along the same route. The car finally stopped between Toruń and Ciechocinek, after covering 1,338 kilometers on one charge.

The actual average energy consumption during the test was 7.09 kWh/100 km. The entire journey took place in open road traffic, on many sections also during rush hours. The average air temperature was 15°C, and the lowest value: 7°C - was recorded in Grudziądz at 5:30 a.m. The record breaking started on Friday (September 11) at 1:55 a.m. and lasted over 45 hours.
