From Zero to 60 in Less Than a Second

The fastest Formula One cars can go from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in about two seconds. Some experimental cars can accelerate even faster. But how about an electric vehicle? The car called mythen by AMZ Racing (in conjunction with Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts and ETH Zurich) is an EV that holds the world record for electric vehicle acceleration: 0-100 km/h in 0.956 seconds! And since it’s electric, it makes barely any noise doing it. To achieve such a feat, mythen designers had to build a system to keep it on the ground where it can get traction, instead of flying off into the air. It sounds kind of scary, especially when Tom Scott is recruited into driving it himself.

When you see his reaction, you realize that the most likely real-world application of this technology will be to make it a theme park ride. It will be short and expensive and have very long lines. And everyone will say it was worth it.
