This little electric car gets down and seems to defy the normal top speed limitations that you think of when you think electric super cars.

Good watch! Enjoy!

That'll happen when you have each wheel having its own torque vectoring liquid cooled electric motor

that rimac is absurd.

 

[Eagle]

2800lbft of torque! :eek4:

2800lbft of torque! :eek4:

Where you finding that? When I saw this earlier, I looked it up and found 1088 HP and 1200 lb ft of torque

I can't even comprehend this. I mean his launch in the Ferrari was absolutely terrible though. That would have been a LOT closer in the quarter. LaFerrari runs like a 9.8 IIRC, so guessing this car can run mid 9's?

Sick.

God the P90D is ridiculous.

 

[YoushallgoFo]

can we stop being surprised that electric cars are quick off the line? The guy says "electric car" in the video like its a handicap.

The second launch against the Ferrari was pretty spot on - they left at the same time.

Must've misquoted the figure...straight from Rimac's website...

1600Nm

Which converts to 1180 ft lbs

Agreed on that one, to my eyes (which aren't very good) it looked like it was maybe a couple tenths better at best? I mean insane considering it's more than a second quicker to the quarter than the P90D.

Except its an advantage. Full torque @ 0RPM.

Its no surprise when you look at what modern electric has done to the RC Car industry.

Every single record is held by an electric vehicle of some kind. Fastest accelerating, fastest top speed, fastest lap time......etc. The only things the Nitro cars are good at is refilling when empty.

The Ferrari is really more of a track focused car though, it'nit? I'd like to see that comparison. Not to hate on the cars insane acceleration though, that thing is fast AF.

 

[SHARKBITEATTACK]

Awesome car. Can't believe I haven't heard of this. Love the idea of a sperate motor powering each wheel. Also awesome that it's using gearboxes to further multiply that torque.

Can I post the Spaceballs Ludicrous speed GIF again? Cause Goddamn 9.9 is FAST.
