Croatian automaker Rimac has started production of the Nevera electric hypercar after five years of development, 18 prototypes, 45 physical crash tests and more than 1.6 million hours of research and development.
Striking with exceptional speed and severity, the company's new generation of hypercar proudly carries the name but also the characteristics of this unique meteorological force of nature. Nevera: a name with provenance, The name given to a quick, sudden, and mighty Mediterranean storm, that races across the open sea off Croatia, a Nevera is extremely powerful and charged by lightning.
The automaker has said customer deliveries will start soon through Rimac’s 25 official dealer partners which span the US, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.
At this stage, Rimac indicates it will ramp up production of the hand-built Nevera to up to 50 units per year.
The company only intends to produce 150 examples of the Nevera in total and they’re already sold out. Each example will be tested and signed off by company founder Mate Rimac before final delivery.
The sleek, low-slung 1,914-horsepower two-seater is the first model to test the strength of the November merger between French supercar maker Bugatti and the hypercar division of Rimac Automobili, a fast-growing EV startup that counts as one of Croatia’s two unicorns.
So far, the Nevera posts impressive figures. The company claims that it can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in 1.85 seconds — faster than any other production car — and that its 150-unit production run is sold out.
Four motors.
Four wheels. Each of Nevera's wheels are independently driven by one dedicated electric motor which channels torque accordingly to give unprecedented control and agility.
R-AWTV
Power where you need it. Instantly. Nevera calculates the amount of torque deployed to each wheel over 100 times a second to achieve the desired driving dynamic through Rimac's intelligent All Wheel Torque Vectoring system (R-AWTV). Stability, safety, efficiency, and ultimate agility when you need it most.
Monocoque core
Core strength. Solid structure. Beneath the skin lies a carbonfibre monocoque with bonded carbon roof, integrated structural battery pack, and rear carbon subframe. Designed and developed entirely in-house, Nevera's structural core is lightweight, powerful, and exceptionally strong
The automaker will produce parts for the Nevera at Rimac’s own facilities, which aims to help the company take control of its supply chain while providing a testbed to develop battery-electric systems. Rimac said it spent more than two years redesigning the Nevera’s powertrain and also developed a next-generation battery system, inverter, gearbox, motor, control systems, and infotainment system for the car.
So for the lucky few that have handed over their hard earned dollars to reserve one of these exceptional engineered, handcrafted hypercars, your waiting is almost over, and it looks like you’re driving dreams are about to arrive in your garage soon.
