New 2,110hp Rimac Nevera R revealed!

Say hello to the Rimac Nevera R!

It’s the hardcore version of Rimac’s blisteringly fast Nevera, and Mat’s flown over to Croatia to find out just what’s changed.

Regarding the design, the Nevera R immediately looks more menacing from the outside. Up front there’s a larger, more aggressive-looking front splitter to send additional air into the radiator, the headlamps have also been extended to help give it more presence. Along the side of the car, the vents have increased in size to allow more air to flow through from the front, and the surroundings of the windows have been updated to make them seem wider. The most notable change to the car is found around the back, with an absolutely huge fixed rear wing! There’s also a large split diffuser to be found at the bottom of the car, too.

The interior is largely the same as the regular Nevera, although there are a few changes. Most notably, the exterior colour is now available on the inside, so the colour seamlessly flows from the outside in. What’s more, in order to help with the 25kg weight reduction, there is absolutely loads of Alcantara to be found. From the steering wheel to the seats and dashboard - it’s everywhere!

Then, of course, we come to the power. The Nevera is still powered by four electric motors, and whereas they usually combine to produce 1,914hp, in the Nevera R they now produce 2,107hp! This helps propel the car to 300km/h in just 8.66 seconds - half a second quicker than the standard car! It also flies to 62mph in just 1.81 seconds.

This car is absolutely bonkers! But of course, all this power doesn’t come cheap. Whereas the Nevera costs from £2,000,000, the Nevera R costs from £2,300,000. So is it worth the extra £300k? You’ll need to stick with Mat and find out for yourself!

The designer seems pretty enthusiastic about his work, nice to see

[Ariautoace]

Rimac and Bugatti have hit home runs with honest people talking about their cars. No marketing or PR talk. Just honest cars guys talking honestly. This is refreshing. No bull.

[Fasteddiebreakshearts]

🚥Just when you though 1914 horsepower was enough … Rimac smacks you with 200 more horsepower…Wow what a time to be alive 😎👍🏽🏁🏁🏁

[EthelJung-jw]

This actually looks so much better and fits more into the hypercar looks
plus more power too than the standard one

[ciriusn]

525HP in any sports car use to be plenty, than Nevera comes around and sticks 525Hp in each wheel!! 😅😅😅

This is an Colossal step in design for Rimac... absolutely beautiful!

[thediffguy]

The basic Rimac Nevera was insane but this is literally on another level, btw I think that Rimac in 5-6 years is gonna make a 3000+ HP hyper car .

[tropixx]

front end looks WAY better than the regular Nevera, subtle changes but they have a big impact

edit: not that subtle looking back 💀, front ent is almost completely different

[zacharyKewDenniss]

This is one of the best interviews with a car designer I've seen. He isn't as pretentious as others, and he explains the reasoning behind the new design really well.

[GrokGrok-gets]

What Rimac has achieved in this industry is beyond comprehension. This man deserves the highest recognition!

[LearningFast]

Selling my car through Carwow saved me enough money to buy the Nevera R. Thanks Carwow!😉

[daily_cars]

0-300 kph in 8.6 seconds is absolutely crazy

[Dave-H]

I just love how the Rimac team are so engaging. Top interview. More Rimac please!! Do a factory tour if they allow you.

[Daveyboy_RS]

The Nevera VS the SF90 in a drag race on CARWOW. The Nevera gave him a few seconds Head start, a few seconds later the Nevera blew past him like the SF90 was not even moving. The craziest thing I've ever seen! Maybe it was actually a roll race where he gave him a head start and then blew by him like he was sitting still. Either way it was the fastest car I ever seen

[pablos]

8.66 seconds 0-300kph is mental. To compare the 911 Turbo S is doing the 0-300 in approximatively 26s. What a car... Give me one please.

[mohammedawadud]

Bugatti designer made rimac look way better, that designer has magic under his belt

[jonasdutron]

I love how you can tell that Mate Rimac loves Mat because he's always in the first people to get his hands on the brand new rimacs and bugattis

[andito]

YOOO As a car designer.. That frond end IMPROVED! A LOT, I never actually like the design of Rimac before but thiss... wow

[matan]

The basic Nevera looks sick in real life, but this one is 💣

[heathphoenix]

It's incredible how such a small country as Croatia can produce such amazing cars
