- Over 45 hours, Marczyk navigated public roads from Zakopane to the Baltic Sea, averaging 30 kilometers per hour in 15 degrees Celsius weather to maximize efficiency.
- Adjudicated by Guinness judge Anouk Timary, the run used a 100-kWh battery pack and Michelin energy-efficient tires to achieve an average consumption of 7.09 kilowatt-hours per 100 kilometers.
- While the 30-year-old from Lodz previously set a distance record in a diesel-fueled Skoda Superb, this latest achievement applies specifically to production vehicles rather than prototypes.
