Mission accomplished: Rimac discontinues Nevera ahead of schedule

Mate Rimac has announced the premature end of production for his company's hypercar, the Rimac Nevera, after just 71 units instead of the planned 190. However, Rimac's founder does not wish to classify this as a failure, but rather as "mission accomplished." His perspective on electromobility today seems different from when the Nevera project began in 2017.

By the end of 2026, the final Rimac Nevera will roll off the production line, as announced by company founder Mate Rimac on Instagram. However, a review of production figures reveals that the model received less demand than originally planned. The standard Nevera was intended to be built 150 times, while the sharpened Nevera R version, introduced in August 2024, was planned for 40 units. By the end of production this year, however, only 51 and 20 respective vehicles will have been built. Of the 20 R versions, ten belong to the limited Founder’s Edition, which customers configured together with Mate Rimac and which have been delivered since January 2026. Another ten are currently in production.

The weak demand was not due to performance: with 1,408 kW – or 1,550 kW in the Nevera R – the electric hypercar set numerous records, including a Nürburgring lap as a production electric vehicle in 7:05.298 minutes and a top speed of 431.45 km/h. Nevertheless, demand for the hypercar, which costs at least two million euros, began to wane from mid-2024.

As Mate Rimac himself admitted, immense acceleration is no longer a unique selling point for the ultra-wealthy, now that significantly more affordable saloons can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in under three seconds.
