Rimac launches 1st Nevera R Founder’s Edition at I.C.E St. Moritz

New Delhi: Rimac Automobili have delivered the first Nevera R Founder’s Edition, with the handover happening this week at The I.C.E St. Moritz. The event marked the first public appearance of the limited-run model, shown on the frozen Lake St. Moritz during the annual winter automotive gathering. 

The Founder’s Edition is limited to just ten specimens across the world, all of which were allocated right after being revealed privately to customers. The first car was displayed in a bespoke two-tone finish, mixing Cote D’Azur gloss paint on the upper body with Titanium Silver on the lower section. A narrow central roof stripe, coming with Rimac branding elements and circuit-style graphics, runs the length of the car.

The Nevera R Founder’s Edition was shown along with Mate Rimac’s personal Nevera, which was scheduled to be driven on the ice during the event. Customer deliveries of the wider Nevera R model started in late 2025, with the Founder’s Edition placed at the top of the production run in terms of specs and customer involvement to customise the product.

Every Founder’s Edition buyer takes part in a personalised configuration process at Rimac’s headquarters, which is in Zagreb, working directly with the brand’s senior design team. Ownership also includes getting access to private previews, events and development activities linked to future Rimac projects. 

The inside of this car comes with extensive bespoke detailing, which includes Indigo Blue leather across the dashboard and seats, contrasting silver upholstery on the driver’s seat, custom stitching and dark grey anodised switchgear. Signatures from Mate Rimac and important members of the development team have been put on the door sill as a permanent feature.

Rimac Nevera R powertrain

Nevera R comes powered with four electric motors that together have an output of 2,107 bhp managed through Rimac’s newest all-wheel torque vectoring system. It can go from 0-100 kph in 1.66 seconds and has a claimed top speed of 431 kph.

Aerodynamic revisions do surge the downforce by 15 per cent from the standard Nevera, with updated tyres and chassis changes having reduced lap times at the Rimac’s test facilities. The Nevera R is limited to being produced to just 40 units, while the Founder’s Edition happens to be the cream of the cream.
