|
The new Skoda Laura TDI diesel model has recorded the fastest and the most fuel efficient drive in the expedition. In a non-stop full loop of Delhi-Kolkata-Chennai-Mumbai-Delhi which is commonly nicknamed as the Golden Quadrilateral, a team of six members drove the car.
The team covered a distance of 5941km and completed the drive in 75 hours and 32 minutes with an average speed of 79 kmph. The average fuel efficiency recorded was 10.26 kmpl as the car consumed only 584.46 liters of diesel. For this drive, the car used a standard model and did not undergo any modifications. The data will be soon submitted to the Limca Book of Records.
Thomas Kuehl, Board Member, Sales & Marketing, SkodaAuto India stated, "We are very happy today as we set a new standard of excellence and endurance with the New Laura that has demonstrated incredible capabilities during this drive in terms of performance, safety, efficiency and reliability. SkodaAuto India has achieved tremendous success since its inception in India and we are looking forward to achieving many more such milestones."
FMSCI (Federation of Motorsports Clubs of India) certified this drive and the partners participating in this exciting journey were Shell, Map my India and Trident Hotels.
