Let the soap suds fly: NAPA AUTO PARTS has officially broken the Guinness World Record for the most cars washed in an eight-hour period.

The company announced that Guinness has officially certified the company’s world record of 7,197 cars washed, set on April 27, 2019, smashing the previous record of 6,277 cars washed, which has stood since October 2012.

A total of 159 NAPA locations across the U.S. participated in setting the car-wash record, joining representatives from community organizations for the successful record-breaking attempt. Nationally, NAPA AUTO PARTS stores raised donations totaling more than $82,000 to support not-for-profit organizations.

“The World Record Car Wash was the perfect exclamation point for NAPA AUTO PARTS’ ‘Love Your Car’ campaign, which celebrates people who are keeping their cars longer and making the most of their investments,” said Cameron Richardson, Vice President Retail for NAPA. “We congratulate all of our participating NAPA AUTO PARTS stores and thank our community partners for their part in this amazing achievement.”
