Rimac Nevera, production of the revolutionary electric hypercar officially ends at 71 copies
The global extreme performance car market is witnessing an unexpected move from one of the most innovative manufacturers of the moment. Croatian company Rimac has officially confirmed the definitive cessation of production of its revolutionary electric hypercar Nevera, much earlier than originally planned. The decision marks the end of a defining chapter for the Sveta Nedelja-based brand, which is now refocusing its resources on new technological horizons and global projects.
An unexpected production stop: From 150 units planned to 71 units delivered
The Croatian manufacturer's initial plans were to produce a limited series of 150 units of the Nevera model, a benchmark for innovation in the high-performance electric drive segment. However, the company's management decided to prematurely close the assembly line after a total of 71 units had been produced.
- Production structure: Of the total of 71 units produced, 51 copies belong to the basic Nevera version, while the remaining 20 copies represent the even more radical and exclusive edition, called Nevera R.
- Founder’s perspective: Despite not meeting the initial production quota, Mate Rimac, the company’s founder and CEO, said in a public statement on social media that the model’s trajectory represents “a pretty good achievement.” He emphasized that the Nevera remains the world’s best-selling electric hypercar, a car that demonstrated to the entire industry the viability of extreme electric performance and without which subsequent major projects, such as the new Bugatti Tourbillon, would not have been possible.
Exclusivism taken to the extreme: How much does a Rimac Nevera cost?
Positioned at the highest level of the global automotive industry, Rimac Nevera addressed itself from the beginning to an extremely narrow circle of collectors and enthusiasts with unlimited financial possibilities.
- Price of the basic version: For the purchase of a standard Rimac Nevera, catalog prices started at approximately 2 million euros (excluding taxes and individual customization options), each car being practically unique thanks to the extensive customization program offered by the manufacturer.
- Cost of the extreme edition Nevera R: With the launch of the even more track-oriented variant (Nevera R), the price tag has risen considerably, easily exceeding the threshold of 2.3 – 2.5 million euros. The value of these cars is expected to increase exponentially on the secondary market, given that the sudden cessation of production at just 71 units turns each copy into an extremely rare collector's item.
Anatomy of an electric beast: Engines, breathtaking performance, design and interior
The performance delivered by Rimac Nevera redefined the physics applied to the automobile, offering a level of power and dynamics difficult to match by any traditional internal combustion engine.
- Powertrain architecture and power: The Nevera uses a complex system consisting of four independent electric motors (one for each wheel), powered by a 120 kWh H-shaped battery pack. On the standard version, total power rises to a fabulous 1,914 horsepower and a massive 2,360 Nm of torque. The extreme variant, the Nevera R, takes these limits even further, delivering over 2,100 horsepower.
- Timed performance: The sprint from 0 to 100 km/h is achieved in just 1.81 – 1.85 seconds, while the acceleration from 0 to 300 km/h seems to be taken from the aeronautical field, being achieved in under 9 seconds. The maximum speed reached by the model is 412 km/h, making it one of the fastest production cars in history.
- Aerodynamic exterior design: The body is sculpted entirely from carbon fiber, with every line and vent optimized in the wind tunnel to ensure solitary downforce at extreme speeds and efficient cooling of the high-voltage electrical systems. Active aerodynamic elements can alter the angles of the wings to reduce drag or increase grip under braking.
- The digitalized and luxurious interior: The cabin combines the elegance of noble materials (fine leather, Alcantara, milled aluminum and massive exposed carbon inserts) with advanced digital technology. The dashboard is dominated by three high-resolution screens that provide the driver with all telemetry data, battery status and detailed driving mode configuration options, transforming each journey into a unique experience.
