The Rimac Concept_One electric car will do 0-186mph in 14.1 seconds

If yesterday's Bugatti Chiron reveal had you realizing you need a hypercar, but old-fashioned internal combustion is too uncool for school, never fear: Rimac Automobili has you covered. The Croatian electric vehicle maker has been showing off the Concept_One for a while now—we first saw it at last year's Formula E race in Miami, but the production version broke cover at the Geneva auto show this week. How does 1072hp (800kW) and 1180ft-lbs (1600Nm) sound?

The Concept_One uses a pair of electric motors fed by an 82kWh lithium-ion battery pack and all-wheel torque vectoring that Rimac says provides the functions of traction control, stability control, and antilock braking by constantly calculating the optimum torque for each of the four wheels. 0-62mph (0-100km/h) is said to be dispatched in 2.6 seconds, and it should hit 186mph (300km/h) in just 14.2. Top speed won't rival the Bugatti, though—it's limited to 220mph (355km/h).

And if the Concept_One isn't enough for you, it now has an evil twin, called the Concept_S. This version drops some weight (110lb/50kg) and gains an additional 296hp (200kW) and 147 lb-ft (200 Nm). That drops 0.1 seconds off the 0-62mph time and more than a second from the dash to 186mph.

Rimac Automobili isn't vaporware, either. The company started off with founder Mate Rimac's E30 BMW 3 Series, which it converted to electric power and then used to set a number of FIA electric vehicle speed records. More recently, it has been developing that all-wheel torque vectoring in the Tajima Rimac e-Runner, a race car used by "Monster" Tajima at the Pikes Peak Hillclimb in Colorado (Tajima had to settle for second place last year, however).

Sadly, just eight Concept_Ones will be built.
