Rimac C_Two hypercar was reimagined to tally with the vibrant Californian scene

What better stage to shine on than the iconic Petersen Automotive Museum, one of the greatest automotive museums with one of the world’s finest car collections, blending the important past and the exciting future. The C_Two is on display this weekend, sweeping you off your feet right at the entrance.

 

A week prior to the famous series of automotive events in Monterey, the California edition Rimac C_Two was present in Los Angeles, at Petersen Automotive Museum, for a West Coast launch. Featuring captivating color and trim and new wheels design, c.

The Rimac C_Two is a pure electric GT hypercar as capable on track as it is crossing continents. A car as bespoke as it is user-friendly. Configurable, personal and extremely powerful, representing what is possible when true innovation and passion is allowed free rein.

Rounding it all up, the new luxurious trunk represents the crown of this creative effort. Tailored to comfortably fit two 6-liter champagne bottles and crystal flutes, it celebrates the elegance and vibrant atmosphere of the Monterey Car Week events. Moreover, it suggests an excellent opportunity to enjoy a glass of champagne in the company of Rimac guests and hypercar enthusiasts.

Over the course of the Monterey Car Week, Rimac will host private previews at its estate, until joining the motorsport enthusiasts and car collectors on the rolling greens of The Quail – A Motorsport Gathering on Friday 24 August. The following day, Saturday 25 August, everyone will head to Exotics on Cannery Row, the most
anticipated event of the week where some of the rarest supercars in the world will be displayed against the sweeping background of thousands of automotive fans.

With a top speed of 258 mph (412 km/h), a zero to 60 mph time of 1.85* seconds and a zero to 100 mph (161 km/h) time of 4.3*, the C_Two makes devastating use of the instant-torque available to an electric vehicle and the traction made possible by the unique drivetrain and bespoke Pirelli tyres. More than that, the C_Two
maintains its eye-widening acceleration throughout a full-throttle cycle, achieving 186 mph (300 km/h) from rest in just 11.8* seconds. Such shattering ability equates to a quarter-mile time of just 9.1* seconds – a figure usually only associated with specialist racing machinery.

Yet the C_Two is a comfortable, bespoke GT car that has a 650 km range (NEDC), can be charged to 80-percent capacity in less than 30 minutes, and has been designed to be used hard, repeatedly and reliably. This is no fragile thoroughbred; new and innovative, liquid-cooled thermal management systems mean that this is a car capable of two full laps of the infamous Nürburgring at full power – with a negligible drop in performance.
