This Electric Hyper Car Could Make You Forget About Tesla

Rimac Automobili, a Croatian automobile maker, has come up with a 'hyper car' which boasts performance specs that could make sports cars seem obsolete.

The Concept One, often mistaken as a prototype, has been released, and is beating records. Each of the four wheels has a permanent magnet electric motor. That is not all. The optimum torque on the wheels utilizes Rimac's All Wheel Torque Vectoring system, which gives the car 800 KW/1088 Horse Power, and 1600 Nm of Torque, both staggering figures.

The Concept One goes from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.6 seconds, beating both, Tesla's Model S, and Model X, with flying colors. It can also reach 200 km/h in just 6.2 seconds, from a complete standstill.

The car makes use of a 4-wheel regenerative electric braking system, for hitting the brakes to have optimum effect. Stability control and traction control are two other features, that are bound to make driving the car a delight.

Another distinctive feature Rimac takes pride in, is the ability of the car to match its driver's mood. This includes a calm and natural setting for a quiet seamless cruise, as well as a track oriented setup, if you want to test your speeding highs. The extreme drift mode on the other hand, will certainly impress those who look for more than just speed in their vehicle.

The bespoke infotainment system keeps the driver aware of the car's status, and information gathered from 500 sensors in the car, can also send this information to a PC or smartphone.
