Croatian electrical car (EV) specialist Rimac is again once more with one other monstrous mannequin, this time a further-developed model of its record-breaking Nevera hypercar.
Referred to as the Nevera R, the much more hardcore EV packs elevated energy, improved aerodynamics, and superior brakes to assist it obtain higher efficiency figures than that of its commonplace counterpart.
Simply 40 examples will likely be constructed.
In comparison with the ‘commonplace’ 1408kW Nevera, energy output is up by 163kW to 1571kW, which hasn’t modified its 1.81-second 0-100km/h dash time, however has lower greater than half a second from its 0-300km/h determine, now achieved in simply 8.66 seconds.
Just like the Nevera, the R mannequin has a prime velocity of 412km/h, which stays the file for the best verified prime velocity for an EV.
Whereas the unique Nevera nonetheless holds the lap file for an EV on the Nürburgring, it’s possible the Nevera R may topple its time.
Designed with the intention of primarily bettering cornering capability, the Nevera R is claimed to be lighter than its sibling, whereas that includes extra aerodynamic aids.
Supporting its efficiency orientation, the Nevera R packs a big mounted rear wing and an “aggressive aero package deal” with a brand new giant diffuser, which is claimed to spice up downforce by 15 per cent and enhance aerodynamic effectivity by 10 per cent.
Its drivetrain additionally options the newest in all-wheel torque vectoring to maximise the potential of its high-performance tyres, whereas its improved aerodynamics are supposed to enhance “driving pleasure on twisty B roads and occasional monitor use”.
It has improved Michelin Cup 2 tyres for a ten per cent discount in understeer and a 5 per cent improve in lateral grip, whereas its drift mode has been adjusted for the brand new tyres alongside a refined steering system.
A 108kWh battery pack feeds the 4 electrical motors, with stopping energy offered by carbon ceramic brakes with a silicone matrix layer for improved braking efficiency, cooling, and sturdiness.
