Rimac 1.088 HP Electric One Concept Teased Ahead Its Next Month Debut At Frankfurt Motor Show

Next month we’ll be able to see Europe’s biggest car show, in Frankfurt. As expected, there will come many manufacturers with their new models or concepts. In the same situation is a little-known Croatia car maker, Rimac Automobile, which will be bringing an electric supercar concept and it has teased with this image published here.

Being based on the picture above, this concept seems to have the same architecture as the Audi R8 e-tron concept, four electric motors each powering one of the wheels. According to Rimac’s web site, the drivetrain will feature two independent systems with both front and rear drive, so this means that the car will benefit from all-wheel drive. Impressive, isn’t it? Well here comes the most interesting part because these engines are good for a total output of 1088 PS and 3800 Nm (theoretical) of torque!

This car weighs 1650 kg and, according to the Croatian car maker, does the 0 to 100 km/h sprint in just 2.8 seconds. One Concept’s top speed is electronically-limited to 305 km/h (190 mph) and range on the vehicle is 600 km (373 miles).

At a glance this numbers seems pretty amazing and it’s hard to believe that they are true, but the good news is that you’ll have the chance to see the car in action pretty soon because the Rimac One is set for debut at the upcoming IAA Frankfurt Motor Show, next month.

    Where the he*k is the driver’s place? If this is what it looks like (a battery warehouse) then I don’t see any place where he can be squeezed, even if it will be a midget!

    I’m dying to see it live, but I’m sure it’s nowhere near the specs.
