Hyper car manufacturer and electric technology specialist Rimac has unveiled the Nevera, an all-electric, 1,888bhp, 412km/h hyper car designed and engineered to unleash an unprecedented level of performance.

The Nevera is the production-ready iteration of the Rimac C_Two concept car, which was revealed at the International Geneva Motor Show in 2018. Since then, Rimac's engineers have refined their new flagship on every level in the pursuit of creating the ultimate electric hyper car.

'Form-follows-function' determines the philosophy of the Nevera's timeless, elegant design. It is applied to every single detail, including Rimac's signature 'cravat' feature, which is incorporated into its flanks.

A comprehensive raft of changes to the Nevera’s bodywork, air diffusers and intakes has delivered a 34% improvement in aerodynamic efficiency over early prototypes­. The profile of the bonnet, the shape of the pillars and the design of the diffusers, splitters and radiators have all been intensively analysed and refined to improve airflow and downforce.

Structurally, the Nevera's groundbreaking monocoque weighs less than 200kg. It encases the car's battery to form a compact, yet incredibly strong structure with an astounding torsional stiffness of 70,000Nm/degree. This level of unmatched strength and safety has created the most rigid structure of any car ever made.

The key to the Nevera's exceptional performance is Rimac's pioneering electric powertrain. The unique H-shaped, 120kWh battery was designed from scratch by Rimac and sits at the very heart of the Nevera.

Capable of producing 1.4MW of power, the lithium, manganese, and nickel battery also forms an integral part of the car's core, powering the car while adding 37% structural stiffness to the carbon fibre monocoque. Four bespoke surface-mounted permanent magnet motors drive the Nevera's four wheels individually, enabling 1,888bhp and 2,360Nm of torque.

With the ability to sprint to 97km/h in 1.85 seconds and continue to accelerate all the way to a 412km/h top speed, the Nevera opens up a new dimension in hyper car performance. The vehicle is capable of achieving 300km/h from rest in a mere 9.3 seconds.

To enable drivers to extract maximum performance from the Nevera, regardless of ability, Rimac has developed the world's first Artificial Intelligence Driver Coach. Adding a dynamic dimension to the driving experience, the Nevera's Driver Coach evaluates each driver's individual performance on the track and provides guidance accordingly.

By accessing 12 ultrasonic sensors, 13 cameras, six radars, and the very latest NVIDIA Pegasus operating system, the Rimac Driving Coach adds an immersive experience behind the wheel. The system overlays selected race circuits in real time, offering precise audio and visual guidance, to enable drivers to perfect their racing lines, braking and acceleration points and steering inputs.

With space for two occupants in full race equipment and their luggage, Nevera is as much a capable grand tourer as it is a performance hyper car. Digital screens eliminate all but the most essential tactile controls, giving more space to enjoy the Nevera's carefully designed interior.

The cockpit features a trio of high definition TFT screens, which present as much, or as little, information as the user requires. Configured for both track driving and comfort, the layout of the cockpit is optimised according to the driver's needs.

Tactile billet aluminium rotary controls and switches - including three displays with rotating control - provide a resolutely analogue feel, allowing the driver to utilise the cutting-edge digital technology in an even more engaging manner.

Underlining his own commitment to the project, Mate Rimac will personally test and sign off each of the Neveras, before they are delivered to customers from the company's current production site on the outskirts of Zagreb, Croatia.
