Chinese electric car manufacturer Yangwang and their almost perverse hypercar U9Xtreme have already broken a couple of sweaty records and now they have obliterated a new one, the biggest of them all.

The car has now lapped the legendary Nürburgring Nordschleife in 6:59.157 and is thus the world's fastest series-produced electric car. In second place is the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra with a time of 7:04.957 and third is the Rimac Nevera with 7:05.298.
