We know the 1,888 horsepower Rimac Nevera electric hypercar is fast, but did you know that it just set a new Guinness World Record for the fastest speed in reverse? That’s right, it now holds the crown for achieving 275.74 km/h (171.34 mph) in reverse, as verified by Dewesoftm at the ATP proving ground in Papenburg, Germany, on October 7, 2023.
If you thought the Tesla Model S Plaid was fast, the Rimac Nevera EV hypercar will definitely blow your socks off. Power comes from surface-mounted magnet motors in each wheel that generated a combined 1,914 hp and 1,741 lb-ft of torque, mated to a single-stage gearbox, enabling it to hit 60 mph in just 1.85-seconds.
