The Croatian Rimac Concept_One, the world's first electric supercar, has received an upgrade. After last year's serial version, the Croatians brought the next generation to the Geneva Motor Show this year, which is even more brutal than the original.
Rhyme is a model Concept_One aborted in 2011 and since then has grown from a garage project into a strong and internationally established company. A lot has changed in that time, which is why Rimac came to Geneva upgrade your own electric supercar.

The car has not changed externally, but it has gained weight (instead of 1,850 it now weighs 1,900 kilograms), and because in between he ate quite a few brandies, even on the strength. A quartet of electric motors instead of 82- now powers 90 kilowatt battery, increasing the power from 1088 hp (800 kW) to 1124 hp (900 kW). This allows it to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.5 seconds (previously 2.6 s), and it can reach 200 km/h after just six, and the 300 mark after 14 seconds (both 0.2 hundredths less than before).
It also brings a more powerful battery greater range, which increased from 330 to 350 kilometers. Only the final speed remains the same, namely 355 km/h. It's improved vector distribution of power and torque on wheels, which brings even greater dynamism and utility to the vehicle.
