GENEVA, Switzerland -- From zero to 100 km/h in less than a second: a racing car built by students has broken the world record for electric vehicle acceleration, a Swiss university said Tuesday.

Students from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich and the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences designed and built the"Mythen" vehicle that achieved the feat, ETHZ said in a statement.

Covering a distance of 12.3 metres at the Switzerland Innovation Park in Duebendorf, opposite the students' workshop, the car was powered from zero to 100 kilometres an hour in 0.956 seconds. According to the statement, around 30 student members of the Academic Motorsports Club Zurich had spent the better part of a year on the project.
