World Rallycross Racing Ditches Gas, Goes Electric via insideevs.com
, World RX has “ditched dinosaur juice and chosen a fully electrified future.” The inaugural all-electric World RX race recently took place in Hell, Norway.
Rallycross is considered a hybrid of offroad rally driving and on-track racing—the courses include both tarmac and gravel sections, and they’re full of sharp turns and hills. Each race is short—only a few laps—and massive acceleration is required. This, of course, makes Rallycross a perfect use case for EVs.
Morris reports that the drivers are finding the new electric racers to be much faster than the old ICE ones, and none seem to want to go back. The RX1e car does 0-62 mph in under two seconds, making it quicker than a current Formula 1 racer.. The 52 kWh battery pack only weighs 330 kg , and the motors deliver 500 kW of power and a massive 880 Nm of torque. A cooling system using dieletric fluid can be supplemented with a trackside conditioner .
