Lucid Group Inc. has set a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title for the longest journey by an electric car on a single charge. Covering around 749 miles without charging, the Lucid Air Grand Touring conducted its record-breaking journey between St. Moritz, Switzerland, and Munich, Germany, including Alpine roads, highways and secondary roads, according to company officials in a press release. Lucid exceeded the previous record for the longest journey of around 649 miles set in June 2025 by almost 100 miles.

“This range record represents a significant milestone; it’s yet another clear demonstration of the technological edge that defines Lucid,” says Eric Bach, senior vice president of product and chief engineer at Lucid. “Our Lucid products combine world-class vehicle efficiency with the most advanced drive units, ultra-high voltage architecture, and battery management technology available today, which lets a Lucid travel further with less energy than any other vehicles.”

At the heart of the Lucid Air Grand Touring lies Lucid’s advanced proprietary electric powertrain technology. With a WLTP range of 596 miles and 13.5 kWh/100km, Lucid says that the Air Grand Touring is the range king among electric vehicles by a significant margin. Delivering 831 PS, the sedan reaches a top speed of 168 miles per hour. The company claims that with Air Grand Touring’s ultra-fast charging capability, the battery can gain up to nearly 500 miles of range in just 16 minutes.

Second GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS Title Set in a Lucid Air Grand Touring

This new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title marks the second successful cooperation of Lucid with Umit Sabanci and his team, a London-based entrepreneur with a passion for setting and breaking GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS titles, noted the release. In 2024, Sabanci set the record for the most countries visited on a single charge in a production battery electric vehicle, crossing nine countries in a Lucid Air Grand Touring.

“When I completed the nine-country journey in 2024, it was just the beginning,” said Sabanci. “This new achievement takes that journey even further. I’m proud to be part of a movement that proves electric mobility isn’t just the future; it’s already redefining what’s possible today.”
