The Rimac Nevera represents a monumental leap forward in the realm of hypercars, emerging from the visionary leadership of Mate Rimac, who founded his namesake company in Croatia in 2009. Born from a desire to push the boundaries of electric vehicle technology, the Nevera embodies over a decade of intensive development and engineering, resulting on the most advanced vehicle ever produced. Its name, derived from the powerful Mediterranean storm, symbolizes the car’s breathtaking speed and relentless energy. The Time Attack variant, as presented here, elevates this vision further, with bespoke enhancements designed for unparalleled track performance and refined road usability. Featuring an all-carbon-fiber monocoque chassis with an integrated structural battery pack, the Nevera combines aerospace-grade materials with cutting-edge design for ultimate strength, lightweight agility, and aerodynamic efficiency.
At the core of the Nevera Time Attack is a sophisticated quad-motor powertrain, comprising four independent surface-mounted, permanent-magnet electric motors that generate an astonishing 1,914 horsepower and 2,340 Nm of torque. This setup delivers jaw-dropping performance figures: a 0-60 mph sprint in just 1.85 seconds, a quarter-mile time of 8.58 seconds, and a top speed of 218 mph. The Time Attack variant’s advanced aerodynamic upgrades, including its Lightning Green livery and Carbon Level 2 package, improve downforce and cooling for sustained high-speed runs. A massive 120 kWh battery pack, utilizing cylindrical 21700 lithium-manganese-nickel cells, offers an EPA-estimated range of up to 297 miles. Its revolutionary cooling and energy management systems allow the Time Attack to sustain peak performance across extended track sessions, ensuring consistency in every lap.
This 2023 Time Attack model also brings an exclusive suite of equipment, reinforcing its dual role as a track-dominant machine and a collector’s masterpiece. Advanced torque vectoring and brake-by-wire systems deliver razor-sharp handling, complemented by six-piston carbon-ceramic brakes and ducted cooling for unparalleled stopping power. The cabin features bespoke Dual Alcantara upholstery with intricate engravings, while details like anodized metal finishes and hidden "Easter eggs" in the under spoiler and glovebox highlight Rimac’s commitment to craftsmanship. The Nevera Time Attack is more than a hypercar-it is a celebration of engineering excellence, blending Croatia’s innovative spirit with a relentless pursuit of performance, making it an icon among elite hypercars.
