Rimac ends Nevera production after building only 71 cars

No successor has been announced, and the sources say it is unknown how the end of the run will affect what used Neveras are worth.

Rimac is ending Nevera production this year after building 71 cars, Mate Rimac says in an Instagram video, as reported by Motor1 and CarBuzz. The company is finishing the last 10 Nevera Rs now, and all of them should reach customers by the end of the year.

Of the 71 cars built since deliveries began in 2022, 51 are standard Neveras and 20 are Nevera Rs, according to both outlets. CarBuzz, citing Motor Illustrated, reports the Nevera was Rimac's only model and that no replacement has been announced.

Sales fell well short of plan

CarBuzz says the plan was 190 cars: 150 standard Neveras and 40 Nevera Rs. Motor1 puts the initial plan at 150 examples when the car was revealed in 2018.

Motor1 relays a Motor Illustrated report, itself citing Auto Motor und Sport, that Rimac pointed to a lack of demand for electric hypercars. The company had said something similar before. In May 2024, Autocar reported, Mate Rimac told the Financial Times Future of the Car conference that more than 50 cars had been delivered out of a planned 150, and he blamed a decline in demand for ultra-high-end EVs.

Rimac calls it the best-selling electric hypercar

"It's the most sold electric hypercar in the world," Mate Rimac, CEO of Rimac, said, according to CarBuzz. In May 2024 he used nearly the same words: "We do have a market for the Nevera, and it is the best-sold electric hypercar."

Motor1 lists the Nevera at 1,914 horsepower and the Nevera R at 2,107, with 0-60 mph times of 1.85 and 1.74 seconds.

Resale effect isn't known yet

Whether Rimac will build a Nevera successor is not known. Neither is whether any unsold cars remain, how many were delivered in the US, or what the end of production will do to used Nevera values.

We track no Neveras for sale, so we have no asking prices to show. With only 71 cars built, any that do appear are worth a close look, and our pages for today's best deals and recent price drops cover the cars we do list across brands.
