The news that Koenigsegg and Rimac Automobili will work together on a new electric hypercar surprised many. Earlier, Koenigsegg CEO Christian von Koenigsegg said the company did not want to produce an electric car. However, his opinion seems to have changed after the news that Koenigsegg will work with Rimac Automobili to develop “Project Spöke.”

For now, there are no photos of the still unnamed electric hypercar. Koenigsegg seems to want everyone to know that Project Spöke is coming. The car will be powered by Koenigsegg’s electric motors. Those who are better acquainted with the events in Koenigsegg are familiar with the company’s inverter David and the electric motor Quark from the Gemer model equipped with Rimac batteries.

With the new car, Koenigsegg wants to improve its current offering. The hypercar will be equipped with a Rimac battery, and it is the same technology used for the Rimac Nevera and Pininfarina Batista models. The combination is perfect, and the 800-volt technology provides an impressive charging speed. Unofficially, the hypercar could easily develop 2,000 hp.

More information about the car is expected by April next year, and potential confidential buyers have already received teasers.
