Rimac Starts Producing Their 1,900HP Electric Hypercar

The Rimac Nevera electric hypercar is a beast with 1,900HP, 0-60 in 1.85 seconds with a range of 340 miles and a top speed of 258mph! :O

Taken from Engadget … It took three years, but Rimac is finally ready to show the production version of its Concept Two electric hypercar. The newly unveiled Nevera (named after sudden Mediterranean storms in Croatia) still centers around a quad-motor 1,914HP setup, but includes a host of bodywork changes to improve aerodynamics. It’s also clear how long you’ll get to enjoy the car on a country drive. The 120kWh battery is estimated to offer a healthy 340 miles of range on the WLTP testing cycle, although that’s likely to dip with a more conservative EPA rating.

The 500kW charging system can bring the Nevera from empty to an 80 percent charge in just 19 minutes, although you’ll have to find one of the few stations that can keep up.

There’s no mention of the facial recognition system meant to unlock the ignition (there’s still a conventional key), but the Nevera still has plenty of tech. An upcoming Driver Coach feature will combine AI with the car’s many sensors (13 cameras, 12 ultrasonic sensors, six radar units) to provide audiovisual guidance when you’re blasting through “selected” race tracks. The Coach won’t be ready until 2022, but it promises to help you use your hypercar for more than just flaunting your social status.
