The batteries in the Tesla work best at temperatures between 30ºC and 40ºC, which works in the Italians’ favour. Low rolling resistance tyres and switching the aircon off tilt the balance further. And driving at a speed that would enrage anyone who isn’t in a Skoda Fabia is enough to tip the 100D over the 1000km mark.

Also, you may have noticed that we keep saying “they”, not “he” or “she”. There were, and we’re not making this up, five Italians sharing one un-airconditioned cabin for 27 hours, in roughly the middle of the Italian summer. Hey – world records were never meant to be easy. Also, credit where it’s due for a 670-mile run while carrying the weight penalty of five passengers.
