Fifteen years after founding Rimac Automobili with a vision of creating the ultimate all-electric hypercar, Mate Rimac has taken delivery of his very own Nevera. This moment marks the culmination of years of dedication and innovation, bringing his dream to life in the form of this high-performance vehicle.
Mate Rimac, who intimately knows every detail of the Nevera, had a clear vision for personalizing his car. Utilizing the near-limitless customization options at Rimac Automobili, his vision was translated into a striking reality. The car features a full carbon body tinted in red, accented with natural bare carbon fiber, showcasing the car’s natural materials in their purest form. The bespoke red anodized Nevera badging complements this unique finish.
The creation of this Level 3 Carbon finish required meticulous attention to detail. The carbon fibers flow in specific directions across the body panels, creating a seamless and unbroken appearance. This intricate process involves careful production and cutting of the panels, as well as precise clear-coating to avoid any imperfections that could ruin the finish.
Adding to the car’s unique character are hand-painted Croatian flags on the side mirrors and a custom-designed lightning motif hidden under the rear spoiler, paying homage to the Mediterranean storms that inspired the Nevera’s name. Mate’s pride in Rimac’s Croatian roots is evident in these personalized touches.
Inside the Nevera, the customization continues with bespoke motifs hand-stitched into various parts of the cabin, laser-etched messages, and a choice of luxurious materials. Mate’s car features an asymmetric trim, predominantly black on one side and red on the other, along with embroidered motifs of Solinjanka, a tribute to a sculpture in Zagreb’s Archaeological Museum.
Mate described the experience of being a customer of his own company as unique and challenging. He emphasized the collaborative process of co-creation, sharing ideas, evolving them, and perfecting the design until the final product not only looked great but also told a personal story.
The delivery of Mate Rimac’s personalized Nevera stands as a testament to the capabilities and vision of Rimac Automobili, showcasing the blend of cutting-edge technology and bespoke craftsmanship that defines the brand.
