You watch videos of this car launching and drifting, and you hear certain… stories about early prototypes that make you wonder, “Will this car launch me over a cliff?” It didn’t, thankfully.
Part of the charm of the Rimac Nevera, fast as it may be, is that you can theoretically drive this car every day.
Sure, its 120.0-kilowatt-hour battery pack and four electric motors give it the most power of any production car on the road today: 1,914 horsepower and 1,741 pound-feet of torque.
Sitting to my right is Rimac's Chief Development Driver Miro Zrncevic, who's been working on the Nevera since day one and knows exactly what this car is capable of.
The G-forces pressing down on my lanky frame suggested that the 60 time was very accurate, and unlike its cousin the Bugatti Chiron, which takes a half-second to spool up its four turbos, there Nevera has no buildup; the Rimac delivered every ounce of its available power the second I needed it, any time I needed it.
All four wheels manage torque most of the time, except in Drift mode, where the front motors shut down and the driver can put nearly 1,000 hp to the back wheels for tire-destroying fun.
A pair of CNC-milled knobs on the center console control the output depending on the drive mode, varying from Cruise and Range in the tamest settings to Sport, Track, and Drift modes for performance nuts.

Again, Rimac wanted to make sure its owners wouldn't be scared to drive this car every day, so the bevy of cutting-edge suspension tech helps keep you comfortable and in control.
