Actually Matt disappointed me not going at least 300 km/h on rolling. Why??? You have this in all of the tests, but in this test it seems you just don't want to show the Rimac's max speed ... We are not stupid Matt). Show us the max speed of this car on longer distance).
Mate spent his childhood in Frankfurt and towards the end of Nico Rosberg's C_Two video, he speaks accent-free german as well. I wouldn't be surprised if he spoke a few more languages on top of that.
@@agentp8045 I think perhaps you should do a little research on the back of that statement. No disrespect. If your argument was in support of a 992 Turbo S then I would be agreeing with you - however Ferrari pretty much coined the phrase of Hypercar with the Enzo and then La La...etc. Other people are successfully in the mix now and that's just fine. Rimacs and Koenig's cost more as they are very small companies - not owned by Fiat. By the same token the results of their development are even more admirable.
We gotta give credit where is due , still fast ASF considering is a heavy 4 door sedan faster than the Ferrari SF90 doing a official 1/4 mile time of 9.23 at 152mph cleantechnica.com/2021/05/13/tesla-model-s-plaid-sets-a-new-1-4-mile-record-9-23-seconds/amp/ It beat the McLaren P1 and Lamborghini Huracan Performante at Laguna Seca and that's not even the Plaid+ with active aero and the Roadster.
What’s surprising to me is that the Rimac isn’t actually “that” much heavier. Being a pure EV on that level of performance i’d assumed it was more than those 380ish Kilos. Matt and Rimac really managed something astonishing with that car, Record setting stats across the board, that combined, where previously thought to be impossible. But the Boss himself is out there proving that they didn’t settle for any compromises. What a time to be alive, right? (As if i’d ever even sit in one..)

@@sammybaraka5362 no dummy. It has nothing to do with what a company CAN DO. Any major company could make a car that obliterates the Rimac. Small tuning shops can modify a GTR that does 7 seconds in the quarter mile. Rimac is making a 2 million dollar hypercar, Ferrari isn’t competing with them. It has 2x the horsepower. That’s like Ferrari being proud it’s faster than a BMW M3 lmaoo. Besides, no one has tested the Rimac around a circuit. That’s where you see balance and the strength of the chassis, along with aerodynamics and mechanical grip. Ferrari would most likely obliterate this thing on a circuit-Rimac was made to go fast in a straight line. This video was essentially a paid promotion by Rimac. Even their CEO was there, LMAO.
Can you build us a better government in the U.S too. HaHa Republicans are scum, Biden is letting all the disgusting vermin flood in across the boarder.
Anytime the SF90 shifts, it just loses a few centimeters. That Rimac is crazy. But in my opinion, a car without an internal combustion engine is a car without character
Dude those cars break down regularly at 2000hp. They’re really only meant for a straight line. You pay 2,000,000 for a faster and functional version of one of those cars.

1 k hp vs 2 k hp
Me seeing the stats : only 1000 hp ? No way it's winning
Never thought I'd ever hear myself say something like that
I remember when Veyron came out and I thought that was it, cars are not getting any quicker. But then again, I once thought there was no way you could have more than 200 hp in a hatchback. Might sound funny now, but times change and it's incredible to watch it all unwrap..
Ikr
Why have ferari only 1 k hp?
This car makes the SF90 look slow, and it’s definitely not.
Yes but I will still prefer Ferrari in anyway except one thing get rimac and sell it straight a way
@@ioannispasaloukos4885 maybe sf90 is faster around a track and better handling. The rimac is blooming around 2.4 tons and is about straight line speeds
Get more electric motors and bigger batteries and you can even have 4000 hp cars. Who cares? The real sports car is not the concept of a dragster.

Can we all just appreciate how damn cool Mr Rimac is, particularly considering he is speaking a second language. What a dude!
Mate spent his childhood in Frankfurt and towards the end of Nico Rosberg's C_Two video, he speaks accent-free german as well. I wouldn't be surprised if he spoke a few more languages on top of that.

"That Rimac just fucked off" - Jeremy Clarkson
Exactly what I was thinking lol
racing an sf90 against a car that costs 4 times more !
@@agentp8045 ? Would be the same result against La Ferrari, Chiron, Fxx and anything else you want to put next to it. What's your point exactly?
@@barzac ferrari doesnt make any hypercar. It is something a value for the money compared to rimac.
@@agentp8045 I think perhaps you should do a little research on the back of that statement. No disrespect. If your argument was in support of a 992 Turbo S then I would be agreeing with you - however Ferrari pretty much coined the phrase of Hypercar with the Enzo and then La La...etc. Other people are successfully in the mix now and that's just fine. Rimacs and Koenig's cost more as they are very small companies - not owned by Fiat. By the same token the results of their development are even more admirable.
Ok it’s time for :
Rimac Nevera VS Koenigsegg Jesko

Ayy wave man! love your content🙏. Keep it up brother.💯
Break the 8 sec barrier doesn't mean in less than 8 seconds? This is 8.62.
We gotta give credit where is due , still fast ASF considering is a heavy 4 door sedan faster than the Ferrari SF90 doing a official 1/4 mile time of 9.23 at 152mph
cleantechnica.com/2021/05/13/tesla-model-s-plaid-sets-a-new-1-4-mile-record-9-23-seconds/amp/
It beat the McLaren P1 and Lamborghini Huracan Performante at Laguna Seca and that's not even the Plaid+ with active aero and the Roadster.
What’s surprising to me is that the Rimac isn’t actually “that” much heavier. Being a pure EV on that level of performance i’d assumed it was more than those 380ish Kilos.
Matt and Rimac really managed something astonishing with that car, Record setting stats across the board, that combined, where previously thought to be impossible. But the Boss himself is out there proving that they didn’t settle for any compromises.
What a time to be alive, right? (As if i’d ever even sit in one..)

@@sammybaraka5362 no dummy. It has nothing to do with what a company CAN DO. Any major company could make a car that obliterates the Rimac. Small tuning shops can modify a GTR that does 7 seconds in the quarter mile. Rimac is making a 2 million dollar hypercar, Ferrari isn’t competing with them. It has 2x the horsepower. That’s like Ferrari being proud it’s faster than a BMW M3 lmaoo.
Besides, no one has tested the Rimac around a circuit. That’s where you see balance and the strength of the chassis, along with aerodynamics and mechanical grip. Ferrari would most likely obliterate this thing on a circuit-Rimac was made to go fast in a straight line. This video was essentially a paid promotion by Rimac. Even their CEO was there, LMAO.
That is truly mind blowing, knowing how extremely fast the Ferrari is and seeing it look like a beetle compared to Rimac..
