Listen up, pub quiz addicts: the new world record speed for an all-electric, street legal vehicle is 205.6mph. This Tesla-busting newsflash comes courtesy of Maryland-based outfit Genovation, who call their electrified C6 Corvette the GXE", meaning, um, Genovation Extreme Electric Car". Okay, so acronyms aren"t their strong point, but making extremely fast electric powertrains certainly is. Genovation actually nicked the record off themselves, having previously posted a 186.6mph personal best.
