Rimac Nevera R: A Hypercar Beyond Belief
2 min read
Rimac Automobili, the electric performance pioneer, has once again redefined the boundaries of automotive possibility with the Nevera R. This extreme evolution of the record-breaking Nevera is a track-focused behemoth that boasts mind-boggling power and handling.
Unveiled at Monterey Car Week, the Nevera R is a testament to Rimac’s relentless pursuit of performance. Building upon the already astonishing foundation of the original Nevera, the R amplifies every aspect. A substantial power increase to 2,017 horsepower, courtesy of a next-generation 108 kWh battery pack, catapults the Nevera R into a realm of acceleration that defies comprehension. The car obliterates the 0-100 kph sprint in a mere 1.74 seconds and can also dispatch 0-300kph in 8.66 seconds. These figures are not just numbers; they represent a new era of automotive performance.
Beyond its blistering acceleration, the Nevera R is meticulously engineered for supreme handling. A revised chassis, sophisticated aerodynamics, and high-performance Michelin Cup 2 tires endow the hypercar with exceptional agility and grip. A fixed rear wing and front diffuser amplify downforce by 15%, ensuring unwavering stability through the most challenging corners. The car’s understated yet purposeful design features a lower stance, horizontal lines, and larger 21-inch rear wheels for optimized aerodynamic efficiency.
Despite its extreme performance focus, Rimac has not compromised on the Nevera R’s grand touring capabilities. The same 108 kWh battery pack as the standard Nevera provides ample range for long journeys, although specific figures have yet to be released.
Production of the Nevera R is strictly limited to 40 units, each commanding a substantial premium over its standard sibling. Positioned as a future collector’s item, this exclusive hypercar sets a new benchmark for electric performance. Launching later this year with an exclusive Nebula green exterior, the Nevera R carries a price tag of approximately Rs 21.4 crore before adding bespoke options.
