Newshot Rimac announces the Nevera electric hypercar is ending production, with only 71 units built in total
IT Home, November 12: Croatian automaker Rimac is about to end production of its Nevera all-electric supercar. The company is currently building the last 10 Nevera R units, which are expected to be delivered to customers by the end of this year. After that, the car will officially go out of production.
Rimac founder and CEO Mate Rimac (Mate Rimac) revealed in an Instagram video that since deliveries began in 2022, Rimac Automobili has built a total of 71 Nevera-series hypercars. Of these, 51 are the standard Nevera and 20 are the more powerful Nevera R.
When the company first showed the concept car that later became the Nevera in 2018, it originally planned to build 150 units. Although final output fell far short of the original target, Mate Rimac is still quite satisfied.
He said at the end of the video: "I think it's still quite an achievement. It's the best-selling electric hypercar in the world. Without it, there would be no Tourbillon as we know it today, and no factory like this. So it has fulfilled its mission. I think it's a very cool car... It will have its place in automotive history. Thank you to all the owners, thank you for being part of this incredible journey."
Rimac first unveiled the Nevera in 2018 under the name C Two concept car. The performance figures announced at the time were striking: four electric motors with a combined output of 1,914 hp, and 0 to 60 mph (about 96 km/h) in just 1.85 seconds.
The Nevera has a top speed of 258 mph (about 415 km/h) and completes the quarter-mile in just 9.1 seconds. The production Nevera made its official debut in 2021.
The later Nevera R is even more powerful, with combined output raised to 2,107 hp and the 0 to 60 mph time cut to 1.74 seconds. It accelerates from standstill to 124 mph (about 200 km/h) in just 4.38 seconds, and reaches 186 mph (about 300 km/h) in only 8.66 seconds. Its quarter-mile time is shortened to 8.23 seconds.
Beyond the Nevera, the Rimac Group's business has long expanded beyond the hypercar market, with several business divisions. Among them, Rimac Technology focuses on the development and supply of advanced EV components, providing related technology and products to other automakers.
IT Home notes that the Rimac Group also holds a significant stake in Bugatti Rimac. The latter is a joint venture formed by Bugatti and Rimac in 2021. The two sides jointly launched the Bugatti Tourbillon, a hybrid hypercar equipped with three electric motors and a naturally aspirated 8.3-liter V16 engine, with a combined output of 1,800 hp.
In addition, Rimac has launched a robotaxi project called Verne, positioned similarly to Tesla's Cybercab, and has also entered the ride-hailing business. Verne was officially unveiled in 2024 and began operating earlier this year.
For Rimac, the end of Nevera production does not mean the end of its electric hypercar dream. On the contrary, this model has helped the company build a technical and manufacturing foundation and pushed it to expand into broader areas of the automotive industry.
