BYD’s electric hypercar hits 312 mph, first production car over 500 km/h
BYD’s Yangwang U9 Xtreme just reached 503.17 km/h (312.66 mph) on a closed highway in Abu Dhabi, making it the first production car ever to go faster than 500 km/h.
The FIA and Guinness World Records both recognized the run. It’s the all-electric hypercar’s second top-speed record in just over a year, and the one it broke was its own.
