The Rimac Nevera R has shattered expectations by setting 24 new performance records, reclaiming the title for fastest 0–400–0 km/h time at 25.79 seconds, beating its predecessor by over four seconds. The track-dominating electric hypercar now holds the crown as the world’s quickest accelerating production vehicle.

Powered by a 2,107 hp quad-motor system and a recalibrated torque vectoring setup, the Nevera R hits 0–60 mph in just 1.66 seconds and tops out at 431.45 km/h (268.2 mph). Other benchmarks include 0–100 km/h in 1.72 seconds, 0–300 km/h in 7.89 seconds and a quarter-mile time of 7.90 seconds. Key upgrades include a re-engineered aerodynamic package with 15% more downforce, new Michelin Cup 2 tires and a 10% boost in aerodynamic efficiency.

The Nevera R also introduces improved traction, cornering grip and braking power, showcased by its blistering 0–100–0 km/h stop in 3.32 seconds. The new record marks a major leap from the original Nevera, which previously held 23 records in a single day.

Only 40 units of the Nevera R will be built, priced from €2.3m EUR ($2,689,335 USD). According to CEO Mate Rimac, “Breaking records is in our DNA—and we won’t stop here.” With Nürburgring and Goodwood benchmarks already in its crosshairs, the Nevera R is poised to dominate further.
