Rimac Nevera smashes 23 world records in one day

Okay, we already knew the Rimac Nevera was fast.

We previously reported about it becoming the world’s fastest production car, as well as setting a new top speed record for EVs.

But the hypercar has gone and smashed more records – 23 performance world records to be precise.

The fact that the Rimac Nevera broke 23 records in a single day is a record in itself.

But to be more specific, the records were broken at Germany’s Automotive Testing Papenburg (ATP) facility using its 4-kilometer (2.49-mile) straights.

Each of the 23 records were independently verified by third-party companies Dewesoft and RaceLogic, both with teams on site to ensure all equipment was in perfect working order.

Perhaps the biggest record set by the Rimac Nevera was its 0-400km/h (249 mph) acceleration time, which was completed in just 21.31 seconds.

Other records set on the day include the quarter-mile (8.25 seconds), standing mile (20.59 seconds), and 100-0km/h stopping distance (28.96 meters).

As if that wasn’t impressive enough, the Rimac Nevera even outperformed its official 0-60 mph acceleration time of 1.85 seconds, clocking in at 1.74 seconds.

It’s little wonder the electric hypercar costs so much – $2.4 million to be precise – but those 150 customers lucky enough to get their hands on one are getting a lot for their money.

The Nevera’s power comes from four synchronous electric motors – one at each wheel – with a combined power output of 1,914hp.

Thanks to the 120 kWh, 6,960-cell battery pack, you can drive it up to 340 miles on a single charge, too.

One thing’s for certain, the Rimac Nevera has clearly set a new standard for the supercar/hypercar market.

Best of all, the company’s done it with their own technology, building their own hardware and software, which means everyone else’s already playing catch-up.

Can the Croatian hypercar maker smash even more records? Let’s wait and see…
