The French driver Romain Dumas completed the demanding 99-speed route to the Tianmen ascent in 7:38.585 minutes. It was the quickest time ever! The ID. R currently holds a record time in Pikes Peak (USA) and at the Goodwood Festival of Speed (GB), the electric lap record in Nürburgring-Nordschleife (D) and now the quickest time for the ascent of Tianmen Mountain China.
Ralf Brandstätter, head of the Volkswagen Passenger Cars business service, said.
A new record on a real spectacular street-Volkswagen and ID. R have once again shown that the electrical capacity of the future is already capable today. Not only has it been proven that electric cars like ID. R can break the established record and put new benchmarks, but the ID. R also shows how exciting the mobility of the future is.
The "Tianmen Shan Big Gate Road " In Tianmen Mountain is a true test. Romain Dumas conquered the 10.906 km "Gate of Heaven " which includes 99 hairpins, some with a radius of just six meters, followed by short sprits, speeds up to 230 km/h and manoeuvring with hard braking in extremely narrow Tunnel.
