Autocar India and Ford Fiesta have registered their names in the Limca Book of Records in a Max Mileage marathon, recording the longest distance ever travelled on a single tank of diesel and petrol.
The petrol car travelled continuously for 1,183 km and extracted 22.43 km from every litre of petrol, while the diesel car covered 1,570.8 km at an average of 31.48 km per litre.
Representatives from the Limca book of records presented the certificate to Autocar India Editor Hormazd Sorabjee and Ford India President and Managing Director, Arvind Mathew here today.
''Through this marathon, we wished to demonstrate that good driving conditions, combined with sound driving skills and high performance modern engines have the potential to considerably increase fuel efficiency and result in savings for car owners,'' Autocar India Editor Hormazd Sorabjee told reporters.
The entire event was monitored and supervised by the federation of Motor Sports Association of India and representatives of the Limca book of records.
''I am delighted that Ford Fiesta is a part of this historical mileage record and Fiesta offers exceptional value for money and can be instrumental in saving,'' Ford India President and MD Arvind Mathew said.
HPCL's power and turbojet petrol and diesel were used in the cars that were driven round the track at speeds between 50 to 70 km.
The drivers were Hormazd Sorabjee, Shapur Kotwal, Ouseph Chacko, Siddhraj Singh, Rishad Cooper, while auto enthusiasts Renuk Kripalani, Iqbal Durazi and Byram Dhalla took turns behind the wheels.
The marathon was held on July 29 and 30 at the 4.226 km-high speed track at the National Centre for Automotive Testing at the vehicle research and development establishment in Ahmednagar.
Fiesta 1.4 litre Duratorq TDCi diesel and Fiesta 1.4 litre Duratec petrol cars featured in the marathon.
