Amid the 2016 Pikes Top Global Slope Climb, which denoted the 100th commemoration of the race, genius driver Rhys Millen set another record for the quickest time in an electric vehicle up the 12.42-mile, 156-turn slope. In only 8:57.118, Millen not just took the title in the EV class, however was second place in general in the opposition.
Millen isn't an outsider to either Pikes Crest or setting records on the course. In 2012, he figured out how to set a world record with a sub-10-minute time in his Hyundai Beginning Car, dealing with the stretch in 9:46.164, which broke his past record of 10:09.242. In 2015, Millen was the general victor and entered the record books again to be the principal driver to win in an electric vehicle.
In the uncut video underneath, Millen climbs the 12 or more mile slope in his 2016 Drive eO PP100, which utilizes a 50-kWh lithium-particle battery pack with seven electric engines to create about 1,595 hp and 1,858 lb-ft of torque. While a sub-9-minute time was great, it wasn't sufficient to beat Romain Dumas, who set a period of 8:51.445.
