Rimac’s Nevara is extremely fast, known to have defeated Tesla Model S Plaid. In a recent interview with The Drive, Matija Renic, the chief engineer behind the Nevara Project spoke about Ev’s speed. He said that he believed time could be dropped even more, under one second.

He said, “Figures here and there, we are very proud of them, but the car is more than that. It’s not a one-trick pony, it’s not a dragster that you take to the drag strip and achieve the best times, and that’s it. The car is actually very, very complex, showing you what automotive technology in the future can do. And it’s also very usable and very friendly from the user’s perspective. And in the end what we wanted to achieve is develop a driver’s car, something that’s very engaging and very rewarding just taking it out and enjoying it.”

Rimac makes the quickest accelerating production road legal vehicle, the Nevera, which can sprint to sixty in under 2 seconds. However, Rimac has always presented the Nevera as just a very fast driver’s car, one that is designed to be engaging and enjoyable, so it was not really designed with drag strips in mind. Apparently, the company thinks it could make an EV that does the sprint in under one second.

Another EV

It appears that Rimax could build another EV that is even fasted. Rimac is a Croatian hypercar manufacturer that has close ties with Bugatti. The Nevera, the company’s latest and greatest product, can safely sprint to 60 mph (96 kph) in 1.85 seconds but one of Rimac’s leading engineers believes production cars can do the acceleration in under one second.

Dedicated drag racing cars can do this at the track with slicks but it seems that traction on the street will be the deciding factor. The Nevera electric hypercar is very close to this mind-blowing achievement, but Renic says the vehicle wasn’t built only with acceleration in mind. It’s much more than that. “The car is very fast, honestly,” Renic told The Drive. “Figures here and there, we are very proud of them, but the car is more than that. It’s not a one-trick pony, it’s not a dragster that you take to the drag strip and achieve the best times, and that’s it. The car is actually very, very complex, showing you what automotive technology in the future can do. And it’s also very usable and very friendly from the user’s perspective.”
