RIMAC: Electric Hyper Cars Making there Path

admin   Fri, 28 Oct 2016  MACHEENE | Report Abuse RIMAC: Electric Hyper Cars Making there Path 

Dedicated torque that's adjustable 100 times per second per wheel, two drives (yes electric cars have gears), 2.6 second 0-60, 1.4 lateral g, power of the electric torque at all times, and 1,080 hp (1 Megawatt of power) Hello than Good Night. The car delivers the goods and by the way one of the first electric cars that can repeat the 0-60 all day long and top out at 355 km/h per hour. So all this detail is usually given throughout an article but why not let it all out. The RIMAC has changed the game but there is only 8 of them built and there all accounted for. Don't fret for all those with over a 1$ million dollars in cash you can wait and see what Rimac has in store in the future and we hear it's called the Rimac Concept One S. 



  

Now that got all the stuff that makes the feet tingle out of the way, let's take a look at the life walk of this vehicle the why it's here the reason for it's existence. The formalities are simple the electric car has taken the world by storm the Tesla the forerunner has spewed out a fast changing market of upstarts, startups, who are looking to make their way, and I really THERE, to create a new industry phenomena of the driving experience.  Founder Mate Rimac of Croatian decent wanted to create a technology that could assist the new realm of hypercars performance. A model of assistance and direction, as no one has truly embarked on tackling the hurdles needed to overcome 1 megawatt of power.  One thing that stands out when you're creating a concept from scratch in the supercar realm is the design and the leader of the Rimac's looks is Adriano Mudri. All the engineering was done under one umbrella which makes sense from the entire driving feel.  The technology highlights are to come, but in its final form, the concept one may be the flag bearer of things to come. See smaller car outfits are not hindered by the bureaucracies that we see with larger outfits they are able to do what they want when they want at the drop of a dime. 
 


All wheel drive torque vectoring: 
What is it, well in a 4wd drive system the vectoring comes during brake applications or simply cutting power allowing you to make the turn that is needed. R-AWTV compromises none of that:
  • R-AWTV can reduce or raise the torque on any wheel at any given moment, depending on the situation and driver input, without any limitations.  
     
  • R-AWTV also increases safety as it can react faster and use the potential of each tire better than traditional stability systems. A dynamic “electric ABS” is moreover included in the R-AWTV system.R-AWTV can reduce or raise the torque on any wheel at any given moment, depending on the situation and driver input, without any limitations.  


  

The team also fitted it with 4 programmed driving modes and one customed that you could configure to your liking. 

Power to Wheels: 
In addition to the newly developed vectoring system that allows you to turn with the accuracy of a Dodge Viper ACR or Corvette Z06 through independent wheel drive. What makes electric cars so special is the ability to put the power to the ground, powering this electric phenomenon is the world's highest power density motor system. The efficiency of a combustion motor is sometimes lost the best providing a 15% drivetrain loss, the Ramic motor provides above 90% efficiency which means when it rates its horsepower at over 1088 hp plus that means all the power is getting there. To add on to this and make this a better driving experience Rimac has added a two-speed double clutch gearbox to the Rear tires to make this a different feeling from the one gear systems found in Tesla etc. How do you keep a vehicle like this powered add on a battery pack that can handle almost 1 MegaWatt of power, if all that scared Koesnigg and Porshe wait until you learn about the full on carbon fibre body.  





With these Tron-like measurements of technology, it's no wonder you can monitor all of your technology numbers through the use of your cell phone. Take a look at the spec's pulled from their website
