Did you suffer through the safety tests of the Koenigsegg Regera? Well, get ready for those of the Rimac Concept Two

No car enthusiast enjoys watching cars being destroyed during safety tests, but it is a necessary process. Thanks to it, manufacturers make sure their creations are safe for both occupants and pedestrians, regardless of the type of car in question. A few months ago, Koenigsegg showed us how it subjected the Regera to ruthless testing, demonstrating how important these tests are. However, now it is Rimac’s turn with its Concept Two, an electric car that has gone through the same ordeal in its testing phase as the Swedish hypercar.

When manufacturers turn to a new kind of power source for their vehicles, they tend to subject them to harsher situations to analyse their behaviour and reactions in everyday scenarios. Rimac has wanted to go further, since the Concept Two has not only stood up to adverse weather conditions, but also to a series of safety tests not suitable for the more sensitive .

The Croatian brand has wanted to revolutionise the hypercar sector with its Concept One and Concept Two, in terms of both performance and safety. In the case of the Concept Two, the protagonist of today’s article, a 120 kWh battery brings it to life, promising a total range of 660 kilometres.

But beyond the battery and its ability to cover long distances, the Rimac Concept Two has four electric motors, one at each wheel. Thanks to these, the Croatian hypercar is capable of producing a staggering 1,914 CV and 2,300 Nm of torque, figures that allow it to reach 100 km/h in under two seconds and a top speed of 412 km/h.

But all this power could easily lead to a tricky situation, which is why Rimac’s engineers have subjected its most exclusive creation to a series of unorthodox tests in the eyes of the brand’s enthusiasts. The first round of tests has already been successfully completed, allowing the company to keep advancing with the development of the Concept Two.

With this in mind, Rimac is polishing the final details of its latest offspring, which arrives ready to challenge the industry’s great titans. Brands such as Koenigsegg or Bugatti have come up against a tough rival that will not rest until it claims victory in this arduous war that has been waged without respite for years.
