Rimac Automobili has finally unveiled the production version of the C_Two, now known as the €2 million all-electric, 1914hp Rimac Nevera.

First revealed as a concept car at the International Geneva Motor Show in 2018, Rimac’s engineers have been in development at Rimac’s HQ in Croatia to bring the Rimac Nevera to market and deliver the ultimate electric hypercar experience.

With the ability to sprint to 60mph in 1.85 seconds and continue the acceleration to a 258mph (412km/h) top speed, the Nevera opens up a new dimension in hypercar performance, accelerating from rest to 100 mph (161km/h) in 4.3 seconds and maintaining acceleration through to a full-throttle cycle, achieving 186mph (300 km/h) from rest in 9.3 seconds, shredding a whole 2.5 seconds from the initial targets.

Derived from the Croatian word “Nevera,” used by locals to describe a “quick, unexpected and mighty Mediterranean storm charged by lightning, that races across the open sea off Croatia,” the new Rimac Nevera is said to be just as adept at transforming its character in an instant – from assured and comfortable grand tourer to ultra-focused performance machine.

“This is it. This is the car I had in mind when I embarked on the ‘impossible’ journey ten years ago. All our hard work has resulted in the Nevera – our record-breaking hypercar. This car was born to outperform, and to raise the bar, redefining the norm for performance cars. And not only in performance – but as an all-around package,” explains Mate Rimac, Founder and CEO of Rimac Automobili.

“When we first revealed the C_Two, we set our targets extremely high. There was nothing else that could even come close to matching the car’s cutting-edge electric powertrain and extreme performance. But for us, that was only the starting point.”

“Everyone at Rimac is driven by curiosity and a desire to push things to the absolute limit. With its combination of everyday use and 1914hp performance, the Nevera proves what is possible when there are no restraints placed on technology, development, or ambition. We have now unveiled a car that pushes the hypercar market to a higher level, we have utilized the full potential of the electric powertrain today, proving what we’ve always been saying – that electric hypercar, in the form of the Nevera, is beyond exciting, and that is as thrilling on the track, as it is cosseting crossing continents.”

The Rimac Nevera’s new bodywork has been significantly improved to deliver a 34% improvement in aerodynamic efficiencies over the earlier prototypes. The new electric powertrain has also been reworked to deliver more torque and greater performance.

Using a unique H-shaped, liquid-cooled, 120kWh, 6960-cell battery designed from scratch by Rimac, the Lithium/Manganese/Nickel battery also forms an integral part of the car’s core, adding 37% structural stiffness to the carbon fiber monocoque. The battery’s position, low and central within the car’s floor, contributes to an ultra-low center of gravity. This helps create an excellent 48/52 front/rear weight distribution and the best possible handling balance.

The Rimac Nevera is also equipped with a high-tech M2M system that delivers a wealth of real-time data to the manufacturer as well as the owner. While the user is connected to the vehicle through our intuitive mobile app, the manufacturer receives anonymized performance data.

Using intuitive mobile applications developed in-house at Rimac, Nevera owners can track live data, such as GPS location, charging speed, and battery status, while also using it to analyze driving performance, metrics, and map previews on Android & iOS.

Rimac has announced only 150 Nevera’s will be produced with no two vehicles leaving the Rimac factory looking the same or bearing the exact specification, thanks to customers’ ability to choose from a comprehensive range of bespoke trims and material options on their visit to the Croatian HQ to design their car.
