Most buyers probably won't take their 1,900hp EV into the snow, but it's nice to know they can... ❄️
Winter testing isn't typically a glamorous affair, with hard-worked prototypes driven to destruction in far-flung corners of the earth. Seemingly nobody told Rimac, however; as part of final sign off for the Nevera's ESP, ABS and torque vectoring, the 1,914hp EV has been tested at Pirelli's 'Sottozero Centre' in Sweden, and at the same time been photographed in spectacular fashion.
Of course, prior work with less pristine cars has clearly been in motion for awhile - and this surely isn't representative of customer use - but nothing quite gees up enthusiasm for a new car like silly, snowy powerslides. It's easy to be cynical about 2,000hp EV hypercars, but who? There was more to the Swedish sojourn than merely killer snaps for the 'gram, too, as Rimac used the opportunity to test the Nevera's winter tyre option.
Miroslav Zrn?evi?, Bugatti Rimac Chief Test and Development Driver , said:"Testing on a low grip surface like this allows us to make consistent and accurate observations on how our systems are performing in low temperatures. Things happen much more slowly than they would do on asphalt, and we have nice, even, smooth handling tracks so we know the data we get isn't affected by surface imperfections or temperature swings.
Mate Rimac himself added that the test was useful for"the final 0.1 per cent of polish" to the car, ahead of imminent deliveries. He said the car"performed at 100 per cent throughout" the two weeks at minus fifteen - though there was no comment on what the temperature did for the Nevera's claimed 340-mile range.
