Rimac Automobili, founded by Mate Rimac, has developed the world's fastest electric car, focusing on advanced powertrain technologies with continuously improving performance metrics. The company emphasizes in-house production of innovative components, contrasting with traditional automakers that often outsource, thus creating added value and new revenue streams. With a commitment to achieving high power output while reducing weight and extending the lifespan of their powertrains, Rimac has marked significant milestones since its inception.
