Rimac to End Nevera Production at 71 Cars, Deliveries 2026

Rimac Automobili will end Nevera production at 71 cars, with final customer deliveries due by the end of 2026.

The final Nevera count comprises 51 standard models and 20 performance-spec cars. Rimac originally planned 150 units; adding the Nevera R specification raised the combined allocation to 190 cars.

The final 10 Nevera R examples are currently being assembled, and Rimac expects customer deliveries to be complete by late 2026.

The 71-car outcome represents 37 percent of the combined 190 allocation, a result some enthusiasts may view as a commercial shortfall.

According to founder Mate Rimac, he is not concerned. He says the Nevera achieved its purpose and that the program made the Bugatti Tourbillon and Rimac's new factory possible.

Rimac Technology continues as a supplier to third parties. Rimac supplies high-voltage technology and complete high-voltage battery systems to BMW; one such battery is fitted to the BMW i7.

The BMW i7 M70 xDrive is rated at 500 kW (671 hp) and 1,015 Nm by default, with peak torque up to 1,100 Nm (811 lb-ft) in overboost mode and a 0-100 km/h time of 3.8 seconds. Rimac says its i7 battery pack delivers a 20 percent increase in energy density and a net capacity of 112.4 kWh. BMW produces the electric motors.

Rimac also highlights the Nevera R's performance milestones. Rimac recorded a top speed of 431.45 km/h (268.2 mph) for the R specification, a new top speed record for electric production models. The four electric motors deliver more than 2,100 horsepower, 0-100 km/h in 1.72 seconds, and a standing quarter-mile in 7.9 seconds, figures Rimac reports as placing the Nevera R ahead of the Czinger 21C and Koenigsegg Jesko.

Rimac says it will concentrate its engineering resources on the Bugatti Tourbillon and on expanding Rimac Technology's OEM electric vehicle work going forward.
