Rimac Nevera

What the Nevera is

The Nevera is a two-seat, all-electric hypercar made by Rimac Automobili. The maker's model page states that production is limited to 150 units, which makes it one of the scarcest cars in the electric segment. The page also lists a Nevera R variant, which carries a smaller battery and higher output than the standard car.

Performance

The standard Nevera is rated at 1.4 MW, equal to 1,914 hp, with 2,340 Nm of motor torque. Rimac quotes 1.81 seconds for 0 to 100 km/h, 9.22 seconds for 0 to 300 km/h and 8.25 seconds over the 402 metre quarter mile, with a top speed of 412 km/h. The Nevera R is listed at 1.55 MW, 1.72 seconds to 100 km/h, 7.90 seconds for the quarter mile and a 430 km/h top speed.

Battery and charging

The Nevera carries a 120 kWh battery, while the Nevera R is listed at 108 kWh. Rimac gives a WLTP range of 489 km, noting that it is based on final testing. For DC fast charging the page shows three rates: 500 kW takes 19 minutes to reach 80 percent, 350 kW takes 25 minutes and 250 kW takes 30 minutes. The car uses a DC Combo connector and has a three-phase 22 kW on-board AC charger.

Sensors and safety systems

The driver assistance hardware consists of 13 cameras, 6 radars and 12 ultrasonic sensors. Dynamic safety relies on torque vectoring with traction and stability control, tied into hydraulic ESP and ABS. Driver, passenger and side airbags are fitted. The page does not give a crash test rating, a price, a warranty term or details of an app or over-the-air updates, so none are stated here.
