CEOs of the three world’s fastest cars on a track test

What happens when you put the creators of the three world’s fastest cars behind the wheel of each other’s cars? Top Gear tried to answer this question when it invited Christian von Koenigsegg, Mate Rimac and John Hennessey to Sonoma Raceway.

On its official YouTube profile, Top Gear posted a video showing four cars with a total of 6,800 hp. Christian von Koenigsegg came with Jesko Attack, Mate Rimac with Nevera, while John Hennessey came with Venom F5 Revolution.

Christian von Koenigsegg took the opportunity to drive the Venom F5 and the Nevera, and after a test drive he was really impressed with the Rimac Nevera. This car particularly delighted him and it can be said that he was quickly hooked on it.

Hennessey tested the Jesko Attack and was pleased with what the car performed saying it was raw, yet refined. He praised the engine and said that the feel was quite scary with the traction control system reduced.

Rimac tested the Venom F5 Revolution and pushed it to the limit. He also drove the Jesko Attack and compared its twin-turbo V8 engine to a motorcycle engine. In the end, Rimac gave Christian von Koenigsegg a ride in the Nevera and gave him some information about the car, but also showed that the Nevera is capable of setting the tires on fire.

Czinger 21C is the fastest production car at Goodwood Festival of Speed

Czinger 21C is the new king of the Goodwood Festival of Speed, which covered the 1.88-kilometer track in just 48.83 seconds. It is a limited edition of the super powerful car that dethroned last year’s champion Rimac Nevera.

The car is powered by a 2.9-L twin-turbo V8 engine assisted by two front-mounted electric motors, totaling 1,250 hp (932 kW) and 1,061 lb-ft (1,439 Nm) of torque. The engine is paired with a 7-speed sequential transaxle with hydraulic actuated multi-plate clutch that sends power to the rear wheels.

The video shows the new fastest production car, driven by Chris Ward, successfully completing the course, although at one point it made contact with a hay fence. Until now, the title of the fastest production car at the Goodwood Festival of Speed ​​was held by Rimac Nevera with a time of 49.32 seconds. It is powered by four electric motors with a total power of 1,914 hp (1,408 kW) and 1,741 lb-ft (2,360 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph in just 1.97 seconds with a maximum electronically limited speed of 219 mph (352 km/h). It is equipped with a lithium-manganese-nickel battery with 6,960 cells and a capacity of 120kWh.

Also, it should be noted that the fastest car at the Goodwood Festival of Speed ​​ever was an electric single-seater, McMurtry Speirling, who set a record time of 39.08 seconds with former F1 driver Max Chilton.

Rimac Nevera in the colors of the Dutch flag

The Rimac Nevera is one of the most powerful cars in the world, but also the fastest production electric car in the world with a top speed of 412 km/h (256 mph). It costs 2 million euros, and a few days ago one copy of this car was delivered to the owner in the Netherlands.

Rimac Automobili offers a wide range of body colors and the owner, Michel Perridon, decided to paint his car in a combination of Volcano Red, Polar White and Navy Blue, paying homage to the Dutch flag. The keys of the car were handed to the owner by Mate Rimac.

“I am excited to see more Nevera hitting the roads worldwide, and this particular example will surely turn heads. We’re delighted to see it in the hands of passionate enthusiasts like Michel Perridon. His ownership isn’t just about a car; it’s about being part of something groundbreaking, pushing boundaries together.”

The same color combination continues in the interior of the car. Sports seats are upholstered in a combination of Dark Blue leather and Red Alcantara with white stitching. Dark Blue leather covers the dashboard and one part of the door panel, while the steering wheel is wrapped in Red Alcantara.

Perridon was delighted with the car and the fact that the first Nevera in the Netherlands was his. “As a true Dutchman, I am immensely proud to have received the first delivery of the 2000 horsepower electric hypercar to the Netherlands. Being personally handed over this magnificent example of the Nevera by Mate Rimac himself, finished in the colors of the Dutch national flag as per my vision, is truly an honor. It’s a privilege to make history together with the Rimac team.”

Recently, Mate Rimac also received a personalized copy of his Nevera. He opted for an elegant and attractive design in burgundy color, with a black interior and red stitching. The car is decorated with several details such as the Croatian flag on the side mirrors, an embroidered silhouette of “Solinjanka” (women from the old town of Solin) in front of the driver on a dashboard covered in black Alcantara, personalized seats covered in red Alcantara with embroidered “K8” (Kate – dedicated to his wife Katarina) on the passenger and “M8” (Mait – dedicated to himself) on the driver’s seat, and a host of other emblems imported into the backrests.
