“ 0–60 in 1.74 seconds “
Posted by: btfc

“ The electric powertrain specialists at Rimac have taken the Nevera hypercar to a test track in Germany where it set 23 new performance records. Among these, a 0-60 mph time of a mere 1.74 seconds and a standing quarter-mile in just 8.26 seconds. That means the Nevera can even outrun the mighty Model S Plaid, which needs a second more to run the length of a drag strip.

Perhaps the most impressive record is one that few cars, electric or otherwise, are even capable of. It's the 0–400–0 time—hit 400 km/h (249 mph) from a standing start, then brake down to 0 mph. In 2017, Bugatti set the standard when the Chiron completed this test in 42 seconds. “

After a can of Red Bull, my '84 Ciocc would leave that Nevera in the dust....










(as long as nobody got in the Nevera and actual drove it.)

... "Now Rimac has broken the 30-second barrier, completing the task in 29.93 seconds." smiling smiley


Jeez. 0 to 250mph and (safely) back to 0, in 30 sec. I could see a scenario where you stopped much sooner, but would not survive.

The Nevera also costs about 20x as much as a Plaid Model S ($2.2million vs $110k), and the Model S seats 5 comfortably. Still, Rimac is doing cool stuff. I'm curious to see what they do with the Bugatti badge they acquired from VW/Porsche.

Is it hitting 60 before the rear bumper reaches the initial position of the front bumper?

The Rimac is unbelievably fast. Richard Hammond crashed a Rimac two years ago - he survived Youtube

That was almost 6 years ago.

“On 10 June 2017, Hammond crashed a Rimac Concept One while filming for The Grand Tour in Hemberg, Switzerland. He was on his last run up a timed hillclimb course during the Bergrennen Hemberg event. Just after crossing the finish line, the car ran off the road, tumbled down the hill and eventually came to rest upside down 110 metres (360 ft) from the road.”

I thought that crash was a long time ago, but the YouTube date indicated two years ago.

My tuned 300+ hp VW Golf GTI is already more than I can handle comfortably. You'd never get me behind that hypercar.

The Model S Plaid price has dropped significantly this year. I think it started the year around $140k. It's $109k now. Tesla are experimenting with pricing pegged to production and demand, so a literal supply vs demand formula.
