Mate Rimac destroyed € 2 million Nevera

Mate Rimac, the owner of Rimac Automobili, used the opportunity to drive Nevera on the construction site of his company’s new complex. Rimac wanted to have fun and show off his rally driver skills before he would completely destroy a two million euro car.

Its R&D and production complex worth 200 million euros is being built near Kerestinec in Croatia. Croatian media say it will be one of the largest complexes of its kind in Europe.

Rimac posted on his profile: “After dozens of tests, we have successfully completed all European homologation crash tests. This beautiful blue Nevera pre-series car is the last Nevera that has to die to complete the US crash-testing program. But before it goes into a wall, we had some fun…”

Earlier this year, Rimac Automobili took a majority stake in Bugatti. On that occasion, Rimac stated that this is an exciting moment in the short but turbulent history of Rimac Automobiles. The company has gone through so much in 10 years of existence. Such a project has raised a young and agile automotive and technology company to a higher level, gaining the trust of partners and a strong position in the high-performance electrical technology industry. With the Nevera model, they have proven that they can develop and produce fast and high-quality hypercars.

Mate Rimac allowed the students to see some of the key parts of Nevera

It is not common for students to be able to see some of the key parts of a supercar live. Exactly such an opportunity was provided to the students by Mate Rimac so that they could get to know the Rimac Nevera electric car better and learn something new.

On his Facebook profile, Rimac wrote:


“10 years ago I was told at the faculty that it is impossible to produce a car in Croatia. And they were right – it was. I am proud that in these 10 years we have built a team of over 1,000 people with over 600 engineers who are able to develop almost complete car and its key elements – here, in Croatia.Today we closely cooperate with many faculties, both in Croatia and outside.A large number of our engineers come from FSB in Zagreb, so we have therefore decided to mark this connection and cooperation – on our corner. Some of the key elements of Nevera are exhibited there, including a carbon monocoque chassis that has passed various crash tests.Students here can also download CAD data of chassis and other elements – transparency that no other In addition, we made an effort and tidy up the whole part so that it is functional to work and nice to see.
I think this is a great opportunity for students to be able to directly see what exactly they can do after college – just a few miles away. “

Nevera is fully manufactured in Croatia. It has a lithium-manganese-nickel battery with 6,960 cells and a capacity of 120kWh. Thanks to four individually powered wheels, the Nevera has 1,914 hp and 1,741 lb-ft of torque, allowing it to reach 62 mph in just 1.97 seconds with a top speed of 258 mph (413 km / h).
