Bending Physics: Nevera Nürburgring EV lap record onboard |
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 ส.ค. 2023
- Fresh from breaking 23 records in a single day and conquering the world-famous Goodwood hillclimb with an all-time best, the Rimac Nevera today broke the Nürburgring Nordschleife lap record for a production EV, setting a hugely competitive time of 7:05.298!
The Nevera is now among the fastest production cars ever on the famously testing 20.8km-long track - a feat made even more impressive because the Nevera is primarily developed as a hyper GT, rather than a car built to devour racetracks.
Buckle up for the uninterrupted, record-smashing, onboard lap with Croatian racing driver Martin Kodrić.

Rimac Nevera: WLTP: electricity consumption, combined 30.0 KWh/100km; CO2 emissions: combined in g/km: 0

CONGRATS! Amazing achievement, especially since the conditions were faaar from optimal today! Hope to see you back soon with a sub 7!
I don't think these conditions caused the car to be 6 seconds slower
@Jesko. Watch my video in a bit :) it was too hot today and the tyres were melting.
@@mgcharoudin When will you have a go around in it? From what I saw you were still good buddies with mate and the company?
@@reneg8 my first thoughts were "Misha would drive this even faster" :))
ICE or EV for the ring? Maybe both (hybrid).
There seems to be a LOT of room for a quicker time. What a crazy machine.
I agree for sure, this lap was far from ideal in a few different areas.
63 minimum speed in Caroussel. Long brake distances...this car needs a COLD track and ambient I'm afraid? It's a lot heavier than Model S Plaid, especially as driven with lots of measuring equipment in the back. I hope that was all worth it. Now come back at fighting weight and get all the late brakes and high minimums.
@@Cloxxki its actually lighter than the Plaid..
@@Cloxxki Yeah dude was barely touching the brakes most of the time, and you can see he is barely able to achieve 100% throttle unless he has a good straight away. They need a better driver. Get Misha in there he'll push it way harder
@@enfantterrible4868 I'd like so see hard weigh bridge slips for that. Last I heard Nevera was 2300kg. Promised was sub 2000. Happy to be wrong, delighted I'd be.
There is something eerie about something moving that fast and all you can hear is the wind. Very impressive
My thinking... knowing the sheer loudness of most other cars... almost spooky...
It makes it so boring to watch.
It's so fast it looks like the video is sped up!
You can really hear the tires too, I'm sure that helps the driver quite a bit.
not sure eery is the word I'd use. I don't doubt it's fun to drive. But It's a bit like baseball. Fun to play. Fun to see in person. Boring as hell on a screen.
@@bongwaterbojacka bicycle doesn't make noise either and people seem to enjoy them. Maybe the problem is you? It's a different experience, some people just can't handle change.
Lap times a side, the most remarkable thing about this is how the Nevera just easily reaches its top speed in that straight after just a few blinks.
It's not reaching it's top speed at all, it is limited to 350 because of tyre regulation, the top speed of the Nevera is 258 mph or 415.211 kmh
@@thordavid1968 I'd say top speed on Cup 2R's then haha
Congolese mines slave labor hard at work!
no, lap time is what matters, not the acceleration. just the laptime is reflecting how good a car is.
@@PrefoX the Nevera is more of a GT car than track car so, yeah, i mean it's only after this lap record that Rimac is starting to eye dedicated track monsters.

@@boostavIt almost certainly couldn't run long enough to complete a lap.
@@mdh00000because it weighs like a boat, not because it corners that fast.
Did he really say that ?
6:27 That acceleration was otherworldly !
What about the limited top speed, lmao
@@the.dialogue41Blame Tyre Manus, same problem wouldve occured in other cars/powertrains at those speeds. And tyre failures at or above 200MPH are no mild manner, lets not kill people.
what limit when you look and display it is going over 350 kmh?@@the.dialogue41
@@the.dialogue41 ridiculous! Just imagine it reaching +380 km/h.
A fly-by would be awesome to watch.
now imagine the porsche 919 shaving off nearly 2 minutes of that.. and that lap right here was already fast af..
The 919 öne was wild
just goes to show how capable the amg one is
Or the Gt3 rs
hell, even the Viper ACR and the Cayman GT4 RS shows off how you could have a ride fast enough to lap the ring for less
Completely different car built for race tracks, unlike this car built for road driving. The AMG is having problems, wont last 1000km without a service.
The audio of this is so soothing. It's like waves on the beach, only at 300+ km/h with a better view.
more like a broken air conditioner
Well said!
what beaches are you going to?
Sadly the weight is limiting still a lot. This 2000BHP beast is slower than a Porsche Cayman GT4 RS (982 series with 493 BHP) on the Nordschleife (7.04.511 min.) and not even close to a Mercedes-AMG ONE (6.30.705 min.) or Porsche GT2 RS MR (6.38.835 min.). Basically because of the weight. When Rimac will get below 1600 / 1500kg I bet the times are going to be insane. Please don't see this as "hate"... I absolutely love Rimac and the Nevera. I'm just stunned by how much the weight seems to be holding the car back.
Misha commented above. Looks like they did this lap in hot weather and the tires were basically melting🤣. In better conditions it could probably run sub 7 mins
Rimac can made Neverinu or light version with tyres just for tracks - but he wants usable car for travelling... 33 kw or 37 kw battery will be enough for fast lap with dragster tyres... but laptime is not Nevera first purpose
I think that on that track a lot depends on the driver!
@@TheElectricGhost would be interesting to know if the ran the Michelin 4s or a proper track tyre like the cup 2 or cup 2 R, this lap seams kind of slow from my point of view
This car has no downforce, that is the largest issue here, not weight. Though weight would certainly play a role. Personally, I want to see the Speirling do a lap, if its battery can last the distance. It's 600kg lighter than this, has 1000hp, and has a monstrous amount of downforce. Of course, that isn't a road car, but still.
Pretty impressive lap considering the weight and i feel like there is room for improvement. Nevertheless you have to give credit to Rimac for actually taking it out to the Nurburgring. Not many hypercar manufacturers have the guts to do that
Razočaran i sretan, eto kako se osjećam! Očekivao sam ovu vijest na naslovnici svih portala u Hrvatskoj. To me razočaralo. Sretan sam zbog ovog izuzetnog postignuća i želim čestitati svima u Rimac Automobilima koji su doprinjeli ovom izuzetnom podvigu! Svaka čast i nastavite tako, hrvatski mediji ionako nisu mjerilo istine i objektivnosti.
Congrats Rimac, this record was of course expected. Svaka cast.
Smoken like a true German yawww
Impressive! Tesla Plaid was limited to 180hp only, after about 1 minute of full-throttle power (780KW). That was due to battery over heating (got to 64 Celsius quickly). Rimac must have a battery cooling system which is an order of magnitude better, sustaining more KW for much more time
That is now unexpected.. The Rimac is offcourse bether with battery managment but from the video its clearly coasting along alot of the sections so it doesnt get to hot..
What record? It's quite a bit slower than a GT3RS.
(with a lot of potential though! The driver is great, but I'm sure it can be done faster)
@@thewaldfe9763 Record for a production EV.
Watching this feels like with more aero and pushing the car even harder it could easily break the 7 minute mark. Maybe even less than 6:50. Until then, 7:05 is still an incredibly fast time so kudos to the driver for doing it!
Imagine if they made a battery for racing, ie 100 km range only and saved 600 kg weight that way?
Then shave 100 kg luxury stuff and go again, could probably hit 6:30 with some more effort.
More aero = tires would melt.
@@barath4545 smaller battery means less power/performance (most of the time!)
@@barath4545 Not anywhere near the amount of power then. Like 500 hp isn't much compared to 1900hp
@@runnerbaba There are many different cells. Example: the tiny Koenigsegg Regera battery, supplied by Rimac, is good for 700 hp. They could take three of those and save a lot of weight. Problem then would be to do a full lap. Who'd buy a Neverra with 100 km range? For the record it needs to be the car you actually sell.
Well done to the whole Rimac team. What an insane machine you've created!
With lots of info! Really GREAT! It is my favourite racing (with time!) video! Thanks a lot RIMAC! And Congratulations of course!
Svaka cast ekipa!
I was waiting for that one :-) - Finally it is done! Great Job!
I’m glad I got to experience the ring on my own so I can really take in how amazing this car is and how extreme this lap is. Congrats to all involve.
Ajmo Mate
Samo jako!
if you think about that a GT3 RS is 20 seconds faster with 1/4 of the horsepower, it just shows how useless that amount of power is on a track. The car is still completely nuts
On a colder day it may be a lot less useless. Will be curious to one day see how much energy (power * time) the driver could take from the car on a given sector at different temps.
Well the Porsche is a feather compared to the weight of Nevera. EVs are unimaginably dense.
Well yes, too much power is useless on track after a certain point because you can only go that fast before the next corner.
EVs like hot temps! @@Cloxxki
new mustang gtd will even be sub 7
AMAZING !! congratulations !
I've been waiting so long to see this video!
Props to the RIMAC team putting that boat around the track this fast. And by boat i mean, the thing is almost twice the weight of my car.

Tesla Roadster gonna be stupid fast if Plaid is already doing this with more space than a Skoda Superb, imagine their 300k purpose built 2 door sports car...
@@lukabosnjak3829 by the time the tesla roadster comes out it will be outdated already
@@lukabosnjak3829We have had to imagine for 6 years already. There's no point speculating unless it finally becomes reality
@jonasjonaitis8571 Exactly the opposite, Plaid is 2150kg with 5 seats while Nevera is 2300kg. And if Tesla decided to sacrifice battery longevity (like Rimac) and added one more of the same carbon sleeved motors to the Roadster (4 motor config), it will already be faster and probably lighter than Nevera. Cooling design so far is another big advantage in Tesla as they use 1 in the Plaid (octovalve and some clever solutions) while Nevera uses 5 seperated coolers and this results in 2300kg even with largest carbon monocoque in the industry and 3 million budget per car...
absolutely amazing !
Incredible car and drive. Samo naprijed Rimac!
Endlich eine Nürburgring Runde! Danke Rimac.
...als hätte die Welt darauf gewartet. Ich bitte dich..
Eine beeindruckende Zeit ist es natürlich nicht, da es letztlich nur ein E Auto ist
Das einzige was das ist ist ein weiteres Argument gegen E Autos 😂
I'd honestly have expected faster considering just HOW much faster in a straight line this is vs the Mercedes project ONE, or especially something like a GT3RS. Still a nuts lap to watch though
Remember it was dramatically limited
That’s because weight really means everything at the Nordschleife. There are actually E36 times, which aren’t too far of this time. But still insane car and insane time!
You win Nordschleife with Speed in the Corners, Topspeed is not as important as going fast around the bends. Thats why Porsches are doing so well on the Nordschleife, they dont have high topspeed but they are very fast and stable in the corners
@@kimoykalinago4154No, it is electronically limited on 258 mph. Damn dude, you know nothing.
@@Hans-Yoloi really wonder if any car is ever gonna beat the Porsche 919 EVO, that thing can dominate any track

Great show Rimac!
The production car record is held by the

A lot of space for improvement!
Fully agree! Even slower than the old 918. LOL
and the mag one did that lap on a damp track not even perfect conditions.

That is record for the EV Car
@@Eulenmann98slower than even the Gen 5 Dodge Viper ACR Extreme Aero & 718 Cayman GT4 RS might I add, and those cars costed even less to add the extra embarrasment

You can tell the heavy weight just by watching the video
flying through the turns! incredible!
Bravo Rimac team!
3:34 1:06 6:29 all over the place
4:13 4:52 ouch!
Laptime slower than a Porsche GT3 with 1/4 the power.
Still, props to the driver for this massive display of balls. And to Rimac, for not hiding (like for example Bugatti) and showing us how their car performs at something it was NOT made to do.
The GT3 car probably generates a bit more downforce and since there are lots of corners here it makes sense. And the Rimca is of course lots heavier. But it looks like there is still some time in it.
Porsche has a fraction of Nevera weight. This is 2500kg on the road
@@goranjurkovic6796and only a quarter of its power
@@lukasm.1894 it was running on a quarter of throttle most of the track.
But anyways I would rather have Nevera for my daily driver than Cayman. Hell I would rather have Tesla model S plaid than the Cayman

Firstly, Porsche is not the only shareholder of Rimac Group. Secondly the United States are heading for economic disaster for decades and they still look very strong. Thirdly, if you lived in Croatia and shared any enthusiasm and some knowledge about automotive industry you would or should understand that this is greater achievement than putting a man on the Moon.

@@MarphyW 2300kg.
@@MarphyW The car lacks downforce.
The amazing part is that there's a lot of time still to be made based on this lap
I wonder how much battery was left. If you are optimizing a battery for racing, you might not need a super big battery for long range. You could save hundreds of pounds and shave off seconds easy.
A lot? The guy driving is a pro. He has lapped this car many times. He was going for a record. I doubt he was holding back.
The AMG one did 30+ seconds faster in damp conditions
Unbelievable!!!!!! ..some serious commitment definitely pours through in this vid. Amazing EV/vehicle no doubt about it.

now you have an excuse to make a track version of rimac nevera
Thats what i thought the whole lap. This thing would be crazy fast if they shaved off couple hundred kilos, a bit more stability and a nice wing.
I'd like them do a whole new car. Key feature: hot swappable pack, so it can just continue when a battery is empty. Battery could be lept a bit smaller to save weight then. On specially designed slick it will go faster of course. Weight needs to come down A LOT. Perhaps 1914 hp for track use is just a bit cumberson. Halving that would save a lot of weight in special power-happy-peppy cells, converters, motors, etc, etc.
@@Cloxxkiyeah maybe they’ll make a track specific car with Bugatti, that would be cool
Love that this finally happened. At least it can make up for its lack of corner speeds by firing away when straightened up. A little :D

🎉Congratulations🎉 7:19
McMurtry Spéirling
@@415s30 Thought of that also but they have one disadvantage. It requires a smooth clean surface to maximize the downforce. Watch the Carwow drag race where it wasn’t tuned to the runway surface and was loosing traction. Nurburgring fastest runs straighten the curves but trimming the apex. Also this was for “production” EV as a certification. Anyone can run a lap but I wasn’t sure if they were in production yet. I’d love to see it take some laps.
This lap looks *so* different from any other lap so far! *Insane* straight line speeds almost catching up to the 919 Evo for brief moments, followed by what looks like slow motion cornering. An impressive achievement nonetheless, especially considering the Nevera's weight, the mediocre conditions and the potential left in capability!
Meni se čini da je moglo i brže. Čestitke iz srca!
what a speed!! Amazing!
Dont you hate it when the speed limiter kicks in... At 350km/h!! 😂
Man you could see a number of times just how much this car is pushing the boundaries of the tires. Definitely one of the main limiting factors here as to why the car couldn't break the 7 minute barrier or compete with the more purpose built cars like the project one or GT2. Still an extremely impressive lap none-the-less and I hope to see more cars in this category of price range attempt things like this
The main limiting factor of all electric cars, besides energy storage, is weight. These cars are simply to heavy to be serious competition for Porsches, Ferraris or similar sports cars.
This thing weighs as much as an apartment building

The acceleration reminds me of the Porsche 919 Evo that ran on the Nurburgring a few years ago, which is incredible considering this is a full fledged road car, while the Porsche was a derestricted race car.
Yeah, but that's a silly comparison since the Porsche 919 EVO is way, way, way faster on the ring. It has THE record, even F1 cars have not matched it at 5 min 19 seconds. No comparison.
@@williamthornton5856how many laps can these two cars complete?
@@williamthornton5856 It has similar insane acceleration though the weight is always going to be a handicap in the corners. There probably isn't a better advertisement for hybrids than that 919 run on the ring. The Nevera is a production car you can drive on the roads. The 919 not so much though you could easily outrun the cops if you really wanted to drive it on the roads.
@@williamthornton5856 The F1 comparison is also a bit silly as the last time they race there was 1976 which is a 42 year gap form when the 919 evo set the current record in 2018.

Very impressive lap! But it also shows that the AMG One really isn't that slow as some people suggested...
I really made a mistake assuming AMG One's 6:35 wasn't that fast, how wrong was my assumption.
The problem with that thing was that it was marketed as next level hypercar, derived from F1. Like super race car for the road that you would expect to be lightweight and much faster than any road car ever. Turned out to be a heavy car with transmission with shifting speed from 90s and nothing like Mercedes led people to believe.
@@MyRealName There are faster cars on the horizon, 1600Hp Koenigsegg Jesko attack,1850 Hp Zenvo Arora Agil are all road-legal track cars and run faster than AMG One, but they never run at Nurburgring, which is bit of a shame, I would love them to do a Nurburgring record attempt.

This honestly makes me scared of the future, the turns are where the fun is at for me and this is just all over the place because of its massive weight. Got to invest in a good car now before they are all gone.
The future sounds booooorinng
i think over the next years we will see a massive decrease in Batteryweight. which will improve these Lap Times by a lot.
The weight per kwh is already decreasing year by year for EVs and forecasted to drop by another 50% until 2030. It is just that the manufacturers prioritize range over weight right now. The battery of the Nevera contains the kwh of 5 Nissan leafs :D
astonishing to see the speed and acceleration with 0 noise but the wind and the odd tire / suspension impact
Incredible
bending physics... in an straight line
Lmao
Pretty good lap time for an EV but it is funny that a Cayman GT4 RS is faster. You just have to hold back so much in this car because of the amount of power and a lack of aero parts and the car generally being very heavy.
Congrats to the entire @rimacautomobili team on this record!
Straightline speed and acceleration is out of this world, but I can't help but notice that car struggles holding the speed through curves. I saw Misha mentioning it was hot and tyres were melting and yeah, on colder day tyres would probably struggle a bit less and a bit more time could be shaved-off, but most of the issues for tyres and cornering comes from extremely high weight of the car.
Now it's clear that Nevera can never be made nowhere near as light as ICE track-focused cars, but I'm still wondering if there are any plans to produce at least limited series of more track focused car.
A lot of weight could probably be shaved by stripping the luxury interior, billet svitches, knobs etc.... interior aircon, infotainment system, face-recognition, autonomous driving and similar non-essential computers, sensors, radars, cameras and their wiring etc. Some other components could probably be made lighter too when all the listed stuff would be removed. This would leave more juice for the motors, it would further increase the acceleration and most importantly, less mass means more speed through the curves.... top speed limiter could also be raised a bit more too duet to lower tyre stress.
After all.... all the other brands are mostly sending track-focused versions of their cars, with all non-essentials stripped, to the ring too.
I have mad respect for all those systems incorporated into the car too as I'm sure a lot of time and effort has gone into it. but the truth is, those are non-essential technology demonstrators and they are probably heavily biting into the cars performance.
Absolutely WOW!
