Miro's easy-going personality and deep knowledge about this car make it one of the best episodes ever.
If you'd told him 10 years ago that he'd be the main person in a 48 minute Jay Leno special, he'd have given you the worst weggie :)
Yes! Most definitely!!
Yeahh, they found quite an ambassador for this insanely impressive project.
Quite impressive!
He speaks like an engineer who has a lot of years under his belt and has a good sense of humor. He's also confident without being cocky or rude. In other words, his personality is intact and hasn't been turned into neurotic spaghetti. Cool guy to have a beer with, I'll bet.
That guy was *SO* impressive! His attitude, manner, politeness, passion and knowledge was just incredible.
I have no idea why I hate reading these types of comments 😂
He is a former car journalist that became the Rimac test driver, and has worked at Rimac since the early days. Very knowledgeable.
@john Coops .. I think u r in love with 👦
@@ole-martinlundefaret5876 he is also croatian drift champion from a few years back... all round great guy
Yeah, Jay's awesome, isn't he?
It is being build near me in Zagreb, Croatia. Makes us all proud of what Rimac created.
Does he have to pay albanian tax?
Maybe Russia could have had a car like this had they not decided to elect a fascist war criminal.
auto je super, samo tko ce vas trpit sad hvalite se i za najmanje sranje, sad nas niko ne spasi hvalisanja =/
@@WhiteLivesMatterPLwtf...who the f give a crap about albanians or any country. Just enjoy the Video and the perfect creation from Mate
Isn't that where Nazis are from?
Of all the reps who have appeared on the channel, Miro is the finest example. Rimac is lucky to have him on board for this historical vehicle. Thanks Jay. 👍
Rimac knows how to present their product properly. Unlike pretty much every other manufacturer who just sends some random marketing guy to talk about the car, they brought the main test driver who knows the car in and out because he has certainly spent more time in the car than anyone else.
really refreshing. it's a lot of hype without seeming like a lot of hype. the guy clearly mentions all of the achievements but without sounding like a hype-man.
Bugatti did the same with Andy Wallace
How it should be
Most of these companies building these hypercars are sending their top, if not the top, guy to represent their cars. Especially to bring them to Jay.
True, it's a shame Jay doesn't exercise more quality control and demand manufacturers send someone who worked on it rather than a marketing guy
Our Croatian engineer rep is even more sincere and entertaining in the car with Jay driving...this guy is a serious home run in representing his company!
I just posted a similar comment. He is an absolutely fantastic representative for the brand.
Isn't Rivera a Serbian company?
@@qazzaq8763 As long as it isn't a Russian company..... Blah
@@qazzaq8763 Nope, Mate Rimac and Rimac Automobili are both Croatian.
What an amazing first offering from a beautiful country, congrats
Jesus! Jay is a freaking beast! @35:18 he unleashes the full might of the fastest car ever built. You can hear the accelerator hit the floor. The engineer that's spent 1000's of hours with this car has his head whipped back from the acceleration. Jay just looks like someone's Grampy out on a Sunday drive. Doesn't even phase him. Boss.
double bubble ~ no trouble..-----..thunder ~ lightning you bet.-----..flying without a net!!! !Kicken holey hell fire......whith 🏮power and style....
Jay's driven so many hypercars its second nature to him now.
@@bigdoge3599 that's a Haiku.
Nice poetry!
Finally i thought i was the only one that noticed it he wss so unphased by a car whose acceleration can nearly injure people lol
I remember in 2011-2012 including Rimac as the future of electric vehicles for an engineering presentation, and then not hearing much after that. Glad to see them fulfilling the dream
Not only can it drive a zillion miles an hour it’s a work of art , beautiful . Well done 🇭🇷 Croatia
I believe Jay might have found his next vehicle to buy, he seems genuinely impressed with it
150 units spoken for years ago. I am sure Jay has had his on order for a while.
@@sports2hedz542 And now he knows it is worth the wait, however long that may be. I wonder if Rimac took this car to a private track to let other clients with orders get a test drive. There is a private club track in Palm Springs that I'm thinking would have been a good choice.
@@joegibbs2508 I'm not sure if any company does it, but certainly the test driver from Rimac does. That's where marketing does its part. Maybe I'm wrong, but Rimac didn't get much help from his own country, so he looked for investments in Europe. I think it was Porsche that helped, and obviously Bugatti (Bugatti Rimac). Very impressed with the product that is coming from a small country since they didn't have car manufacturing back then.
@@ImportedFromSerbia I am pretty sure they also sell some electric technology to other companies for some extra cash flow. In some video heard early funding for prototypes came from middle east.
@@ligametis yes they do, to 5 or 6 car manufacturers i think.... here is a link of the factory video where they are at the moment with Mate Rimac himself, its 1 hour long but was really entertaining for me.
czcams.com/video/XHBPAeYhqJs/video.html&ab_channel=MishaCharoudin
Croatia is a country that punches well above its weight in so many categories; fast cars, art and music, and quality of the people, to name a few.
Football
Springfield arms too
Sport😎🇭🇷
We like to see it free and well into competition! Croatia used to be for way too long be a part of the Habsburg Empire or of Yugoslavia, but they had incredible engineers all the time, and now they are free to play the world, what a chance for all of us!
Also sport 😎
I was only going to ‘dip’ into parts of this - but found myself watching the entire episode with rapt attention. Rimac presents such a positively inspiring ethos. Thank you.
congrats Miroslav! well done. when I saw this video i honestly was not that interested in watching it, but i'm glad i did. this is easily one of my top 3 favorite episodes. what an excellent job in the car and in representing your company and country.
Croatia is such a wonderful place with such warm and kind people. I wish them success with this!
don't bring up WWII though....
😏
As one cannibal said 'people from Balkans are great you just need to cook them little bit longer'.
a beautiful country with a rich history and beautiful people.
Thank you,if the government wasn't completely corrupt it would be much better,but it's the people who gave them their votes in the first place.
@@gostfalcon and a lot of thieves
This is one of the most beautiful cars I've ever seen. It's so elegant yet retains the hypercard vibe.
This is the best looking, smartest and most powerful electric car I have ever seen - and it is from tiny Croatia ! Goes to show what you can do when you really go for it. And the presenter was top notch too - he absolutely knew what he was talking about, knew every nut & bolt, and above all, was so well mannered and polite. And I learned another thing: the cravatte was invented in Croatia too. So, there you have it...
I am glad I watched the entire video.
Croatia is very well represented.
The Rimac Nevera.
What a gorgeous, fantastic car.

10:16 I had no idea about the Kravat feature on the side of the car. I thought I had seen all the side intakes but this fresh new idea based on some cultural heritage looks stunning.

@@TSunderground kravata not cravat haha
@Joe Engineer he missed to mention one more detail: you can choose what colors are shown, i.e. your national flag
The Mclaren F1 has been my favorite car for 30 years since I first learned of its existence.. this Rimac Nevera is the most absolutely beautiful car I’ve ever seen in every way and I feel like I’m seeing and hearing about the F1 for the first time again. A timeless masterpiece has been created yet again 🙌
If you liked the F1 check the GMA t.50 it's the successor to the F1 from the same engineer
@@ocoet3575 beautiful 👍
I’m glad you feel that way but the F1 was 20 years ahead of it’s time. This Rimac will be outdone in less than 5.
You think the Rimac is "beautiful"? Lol
Not a fan of the looks, looks kinda early 2000s, already looks dated.
Mirooo! Man, you are a LEGEND! Im glad that i was able to meet you and hang out with you back in the days. Its amazing seeing you go from a friendly drifter on the weekends to now presenting cars to Leno. Thanks for representing Croatia in the best way.
Mr. Zrnčevič is obviously very smart person...I like his way of explaining...really humble man 👌
Susjedi, imate razlog za ponos. 😎
Hvala ti 🍷
Rimac has never missed a beat. So impressive considering how young a company they still are. And this representative was extremely knowledgeable as well. Well done Jay on inviting them to the garage. They deserve their success.
They did so well that they basically... own Bugatti... like, Rimac's CEO is also Bugatti's CEO, and I think it was Volkswagen's call.
@@slushyslushslushbruh they don't "own" Bugatti. It is a very close cooperation with Porsche/VAG. Love is not a one way street. ;-) ... I assume they earned the trust of Porsche when working on the Taycan. They also have a very very close cooperation in the ebike sector.
@@stehgrad Oh, well fair enough.
@@stehgrad no they own bugatti. vag gave it to them to lock up mates services. in return porsche owns 45% of the combined rimac-bugatti.
Porsche owns 24%
You can see how much passion went into this car. Amazing.
I was in Croatia in May of '22. Great people, great food. Charming Country. A 2m+ automobile, who knew? *Nice.*
Bravo dečki. Predstaviti auto jednom takvom ljubitelju auta kao što je Leno je za mene čudo. Čovjek koji ima takve aute u garaži da se smrzneš. Još k tome predstaviti Hrvatsku baštinu. Kapa do poda. Congratulation to the guys in Rimac factory. To present Nevera to Jay Leno is for me at least good job nearly a miracle regarding the beautiful cars that he owns.
Ponosan sam ko da je nas.
@@aldinapo6472 Odusevljen sa ovim ljudima, svaka im cast. Lik je moderni Tesla u svetu automobila ( Mate ).
Croatia definitely did not disappoint! Better looking than a Koenigsegg Regera in my opinion.
Outstanding and Gorgeous!!
Had England, Germany, France, Italy etc designed/manufactured this vehicle given all their experience, it wouldn't be that impressive to me. But when a Nation of people not known for modern tech sets new boundaries in a very established sector.....that's impressive! Nothing elevates a Nations global status quicker than advanced technology! Well done Croatia.
you forget that there was another "electric man" from Croatia
His name was Nikola Tesla
Croatia had the second hydroelectric power station in the world
On August 28, 1895, just two days after the first hydroelectric power plant at Niagara Falls, the first Croatian and one of the world's first electric power systems was put into operation.
with all of Africas resources, i would have imagined by now that they would manage to beat the Croatians to world market vehicle manufacturing and export.
It's a Pininfarina Battista.
And still gogin on with your nationalist bs.... Croatia is not a 3. world country. Poeple have access to education and can also study abroad, which many do. You can find great talent in every part of this world. The broader the access to education (basic needs covered of course) the better the chance for industrial development.
Mates exceptional talent has nothing to do with his nationality, he studied in Munich btw.
And also.. when he ran his electrified E30 he was ridiculed quite a bit, in Croatia.
@@icsbay7932 What do you mean by "still"? You're not one of these comment-stalkers are you?! Joking aside: where in my comment did I suggest that Croatia is a third world country? Anybody can deduce that it has an education system given it produces medical practitioners (evidenced by visible hospitals) and civil engineers (evidenced by visible modern structures). The point I was making is that Croatia isn't known for modern-tech and that fact has nothing to do with the Nation's education system but has everything to do with the culture of its people and Mate is Croatian ...but importantly a new breed of entrepreneurial Croatian who's breaking the lingering old-communist mindset. You said that "Mate's talent has nothing to do with his Nationality" and you're right, but he proclaims that RIMAC automobile proudly represents his people and it does...because a major component of any persons identity - including yours (unless you're a Globalist) - is their Nationality! Even if he never stated that RIMAC represents his Nation, the company certainly isn't German because he was educated in Munich.
Jay’s knowledge of cars is amazing to me
He always asks the questions we all want to know
I really enjoyed this episode
I did not catch the reps name but I love his sense of humor
His reaction when Jay punched it the first time was priceless
Love this 🇭🇷 and his company
This entire episode is so very impressive on so many levels, it truly mind boggling. What a wonderful introduction to a new innovative car. Just brilliant. Hats off to both presenters... inspiring.
I am blown away as to how Mate has built this company. Talk about putting Croatia on the map. Every person I’ve seen from the company has been top of the game.

Sometimes it's fun to joke about things.
Our guy from Croatia is very good at explaining the many complexities in the design of this vehicle. I like his style of presentation, especially being an engineer, plus he has learned English which gives him even more kudos from me!
before being development driver for Rimac he was car journalist, also in Croatia we learn English in school since about age of 8-9

Consider the fact that the ESG report enforces (the Green New Deal) that AOC announced. The middle class has no representation in Washington DC with no representation comes elimination of the middle class therefore things like Cadilac a middle-class car is forbidden and are not allowed to continue on developing engines.
Any violation of the Green New Deal resulting in a negative ESG report your supply chain will be broken.
A functioning Blue-Collar vehicle doesn't exist hybrid or electric it's all lies and fudge'ing numbers. A Tesla could not win and compete in an event like Drag Week against the old fairly junky blue-collar cars racing. A hybrid electric or electric vehicle will never be useful to any middle-class people or cost-effective long term. Stop, just stop you sound like Congressman AOC.
I always thought Rimac was Serbian.
You can always tell on this program when they send the salesman and when the send the car guy.
If everything is actually the way this car seems, Jay is right, the Nevera will be the standard moving forward. Over the top power and outstanding design, this is truly a BEAUTIFUL CAR with ultimate capabilities. Like so many other hyper cars, the capabilities and potential belong on a track where the driver will need some time in the car to understand how he will live with this creation… Styling is outstanding and is overshadowed by the engineering. Well done!
Wow, probably the best JLG video I’ve seen yet. This guy is a “car guy”! And I’m sure everyone in development is also. Thanks for the video.
Miroslav, Mate and the team are great guys, I've never seen Jay talk so much and have so much fun
Jay is fully onboard obviously but I don't know why. He is rewarded in some way for his cooperation.
@@gymshoe8862 Does one detect a slight hint of cynicism.......................? Surely not.................😉

I think you should see a doctor about whatever brain injury you seem to be suffering from.
Every time I see a video about Rimac, Mate or the Nevera I hit play...it's an amazing company. The Rimac company on its own is incredibly impressive, now with its connections with Bugatti, Porsche and others, it's truly inspiring what Mate and team have accomplished!...Great video, great representation by Miroslav and truly a great automobile...now where did I leave that 2 million dollars?, It was right here.

I am not Croatian. But I am a European from a similarly small country. And I am still proud of what is being built in my neighborhood, what visions are being lived out there. Thank you, Mr. Rimac. And Jay: Enjoy your everyday car.
What an absolute beast of a vehicle. I love the Nevera so much, very glad to see Jay take a look at it!
As Croatian Canadian I am so proud of Rimac what thy have don. I been waiting for this video to come :) Very well don Jay I hope you buy one of this monster car.

This is the first electric car I like. BTW, the Croats also make quality guns. Gotta love them...
Hellcat a nice piece
This car is completely top shelf. From Mate to the entire team and the car itself is pure inspiration of what can be done with a vision and tenacity regardless of your location or background. Čestitamo!
Thanks a lot!
For the price, it really should be.
The car is great. Design, color, ergonomics, all at the highest level. Now show her the time at the Nürburgring. 😐🤨
I have a feeling it's gonna destroy the lap record
Nico Rosberg promised to do that with his Nevera.
3 days ago Nevera broke 23 world records in one drive.

I don't normally like the new car "product placement" sales pitch episodes, but this car is utterly fantastic. Not to mention the rep wasn't a pure sales guy, more of a pure car guy.
The guy was literally part of the engineering team
@@Mouwcat And the guy was a race driver before.
When you have fantastic product, that you are well aware of it, then you do not need to push yourself extra mile to present product to audience. Just being a normal, on the ground, and introduce product to audience arena is only your job.
Very cool car. Love that EV's are maintaining a following into Supercars.
yes, Yes, YES! A car like this is about DRIVING not selling. Having a driving guy opposed to a selling guy showcasing it, is beyond appropriate and right. 7:39 what a gorgeous beast.
Really impressive.
Hats off to the lovely nation of Croatia!
My new favorite EV.
I'll take two please.😎
This is it. This is the most beautiful car I have ever seen. The paint and color is beyond belief. I was glued to the screen watching this episode. These are the episodes that take my mind off the nutty world we live in. I just wish it could have lasted longer. Thanks Mr. Leno
Ok lol
I couldn't agree more. Amazing car. Excellent episode of Jay Lenos Garage.
This is the most beautiful car you have seen?
@@vika0194 I agree it’s a gorgeous design.
really not sure about this. It's a good looking car but it looks a bit science lab to me.
I didn't get to drive it Jay so no I didn't like it as much as you did. lol It is a phenomenal looking car and the engineering behind it is second to none, incredibly impressive piece of machinery from Rimac. And I know a little about Croatia from the former Croatian professional basketball player and New Jersey Nets of the NBA R.I.P. Dražen Petrović. ♥
Dražen Petrović is a legend!
Dražen, Kukoč and Rađa are basketball pantheon for us in Croatia! Before them, also Croat - Krešimir Ćosić - first non-American ever to be picked at a NBA draft (in 1972), but he chose to stay in Europe.
What an insane ride, and that guy is a really good representative for the company also seems like him and Jay get along pretty well
48.32 Jay dusts off another runner, with ease, Kudos to Croatia & all involved. She is a stunning beauty, Electro-Muscle car for sure.
When Jay says "that's incredible," you have to know it's badass!
fool
@@seavil1 he's right. jay says "it's a solid automobile" for the crappy cars.
I've been a car guy my entire life and I can appreciate the "bleeding edge" automotive technology as much, if not more than the next guy, but at $2,500,000.00 I would expect more. It's really just the same old basic automotive technology for which 90% of it goes unused and therefore wasted. Case in point. I drive a 2010 Malibu LTZ. Bought it used in 2014 for $12,800.00. It comfortably transports twice as many people as the Rimac Nevera in just as much comfort. During rush hour commute, I was driving a major multi-lane route on my way to a doctor's appointment. This route frequently comes to a complete stop or crawls along between 8 and 14 mph. During that drive, a guy in a Tesla Plaid addition was in the lane next to me. Throughout the entire drive, we were neck and neck. Sometimes I was ahead and sometimes he was. Now a Tesla Plaid is not near as expensive as the Rimac Nevera and either would out perform my Malibu if we were the only cars on the road. The problem is real life is not like a car commercial where the performance car being advertised is all alone driving at its full potential. Driving, at least around where I live, is a pot holed piece of pavement, constantly under construction, clogged with school buses, old folks, soccer moms in SUV's and bozos that drive for 20 miles with their left hand turn signals on and never make a turn. Therefore, the extra $2,487,200.00 spent for that Rimac Nevera over my Malibu would just be wasted. A nice toy for the wealthy, but not a car I see being sold in the millions. (Unless we are talking price! :-D) In addition, I had to laugh when Jay said he had never seen that color before. He should check out the 1966, Pontiac Motor Division color that I believe was called Marina Turquoise. Of course, these are just a bunch of thoughts from a wise crackin' old guy! Having said all that, kudos to the guys at Rimac who have built a truly high tech piece of automotive hardware and to Jay for showcasing it to us.
there are a lot of "hypercars" out there, and all are similar in shape and design. This Rimac is a flat out stunner; the wheels are PERFECT; and that color is 🔥🔥🔥
I was waiting for this😍
Imagine going from making zero cars to producing the fastest sleekest car in the word?
So warm conversation. Pleasure to watch! Nevera is so impresive in many fields. Exciting to see what future would bring us since this is actually their 1st car if we don't count concept. Rimac makes our country proud again;-)
You can be very proud, my friend. This car is a masterpiece and Mate a national hero. ❤️
When you think about the vehicles Jay has driven and how much he loves automobiles.
Then you can begin to imagine how good this automobile is!
I'm so excited to see how the upcoming hybrid car at Bugatti turns out.
I like as a Porsche shareholder - that they have a significant stake in Rimac!
By the way, they have been working together for a very long time - so I'm looking forward to the upcoming models at Porsche just the same!
For such a new company to develop a car to that refinement, those power numbers and most notably completely built in house other that tires and brakes is amazing. Nothing is outsourced.
The reason Mate’ went from hobby drag racer to head cheese at Bugatti in no time is the amazing people Rimac employs. He is a genius!
I am a genius.

@@ElroyMcDuff thank you 😊 Bro
Now he needs to start a rocket company and show the world how you do that while still remaining human also.
For me, this is the *coolest* looking car I've seen since their Concept One. If I was rich, I would have a Volvo for street parking trips to the city centre. And this for everything else. No big car collection. Just that. It's so perfectly proportioned. It's just fantastic !
I'm half dalmatian half slavonian, so may be biased, it is a terrific car, but proportions wise i don't at all like so long front overhang, but as rimac himself explained it it was necessary for the crash test purposes, it does not have an engine in front to take in the inertial forces.
@@dannyboy_vtc8980 I think Clarkson said the Concept One looked like "a bar of soap, or maybe a lady's leg shaver". But you can see the DNA carried over, and to me it's just great.

@@seansezz Done ! If I win enough, I'll buy you one also !
Incredible piece of engineering. Thanks Rimac and thank you Jay Leno.
This car is possibly one of the best cars I have seen that is Electric and appears to have all of the things that represent everything built in house. The quality is there and well represented.
47:31 now what he didn’t mention, is that the first customer car belongs to F1 champion Nico Rosberg
Yes, there is a video on nico's chanell of him collecting the car
Probably the first EV that is truly beautiful (in my opinion)
What, you have a problem with the Ford Lightning? lol
Pininfarina is as good looking (the back of the car looks better imo) but it's also based on Rimac.
One of the few electric cars i actually want if i had the money, haha.
A great looking car, but to me, the rear looks too similar to the Corvette C8. I like the more futuristic look of the Lotus Evija better.
Well said
I'm not usually a fan of greenish colors, but THAT COLOR is amazing.
I just drove this car today at Car Week at Monterey. It was completely insane. I've driven McLaren's and this is the most incredibly bonkers of anything I've driven. It was even raining and taking corners at ungodly speeds! I dislike electric cars intensely but this made me a fanboy!
26:00 "Very easy to get into" as Jay drops half a metre and slams into the seat. He's getting old but he's still great !
Jay has enormous influence in the car culture but it's clear he is past his prime. Like the Beatles, his influence will plod on for decades yet.
@@gymshoe8862 I wonder what the plan is for when he gets frail. I imagine the intention is to open a museum in his name when he dies
I met the makers at Pebble and spoke with them for an extended period. They are very serious, very intelligent and very driven to make this car, well, the ultimate electric. There's a lot going on behind the scenes with some politics blended in of course, but this should be close, if not the most sophisticated, all electric car on earth.
Is this really Jay Leno's Garage?
@@garneauweld1100 I got this message on another channel, but from that other channel's telegram, apparently. So it seems some kind of scam.

I've never seen the Tonight Show with Jay Leno or any of those American late night shows, But it's so charming to see how he puts his guests at ease, They are nervous for whatever reasons when they come out and meet him and by the end he has them laughing and trying to crack some jokes of their own.
Happy that people from the countries in the neighbourhood are doing such an amazing work.Also didn't actually know the origin of the word cravata(necktie), since we call it the same in Romanian, kind of.
First electric car to get my attention… ill design, killer color combos, and the rep was great!
Croatia can be Proud of this Company 👌🇭🇷🔥
This car and this guy are Sensational. ❤ I want this Car
I watch pretty much every Leno's Garage episode -- I was so thankful for the episodes by himself during the COVID months. But I have to call Jay out here. A timeless design, he opined. OK. Subjective opinion. But timeless, not a lot of wings and scoops all over it? Ahhhhhhh. Maybe he's looking at his McLaren F1 across the garage. Keep 'em coming Jay.
Mrgud mu je održao usput i lagano predavanje iz povijesti 😊
Ich liebe dieses verdammte Auto, beeindruckendes Engineering.
If I could buy two new cars I'd buy a Shelby GT 500 Mustang (I've owned 5 Mustangs) and one of these. This car is amazing. It's the future of hyper performance cars here right now. My mind can't fathom doing the quarter mile in 8.52 seconds (World Record for a production car) in a car I drove to the track.
That colour is wild.
Hey,, let's sell a $2.5 million dollar--state of the art super car...who can we get to represent us as a car company? Well, this is my fourth posting , my third time watching this video, and I can't get beyond this Croatian man's sincere presentation. Jay has given us a great video of a company that is driven to succeed. It is one of the most balanced offerings I have seen here in two years. Well done...and remember what was happening in Croatia in the early 90's. What a company!
Thank You Sir, people tend to forget that we are such a young country.
It's always one-pedal driving in my EV. I am so used to that it feels foreign to me without it. I've never seen Jay talking so little as Miroslav Zrncevic is so knowledgeable in regards to this powerful EV. Wonderful car but totally out my reach and more than likely my skills. Great review!
This is one of the few episodes where the guest has more information than Jay does, understandably so, but it’s still a rarity and makes you appreciate just how vast Jay’s knowledge base is, but shows there’s always more to learn.
This guy makes me want to move to Croatia and get an engineering degree.
Get your degree elsewhere, this stuff is not a part of the education, they teach us mostly ancient stuff here
You can apply and get free education in Croatia.
ironic twist.. Tesla was born in Croatia. I match ancient graves in the small town of "smiljan" . I do not know who those dead people are.. but that is how I learned where nikola telsa was born. Nice car, love the technology and even the color.
Amazing car for just 5yrs in production! They just set the new fastest electric production car record with this car! This thing is stupid fast! 👌🏆
Proud...thats the only word i can think of as a Croatian guy...just proud...👏👏👏👏
Incredible Vehicle. Mate Rimac is a genus at only 34 years old. Started this company at 21 years old. He was basically a mechanical genius winning numerous automation awards in Highschool.
i dont know why everyone cooms over Elon when Mate Rimac has done more for cars, younger, less money and aquired Bugatti
fool youll never see it in real life and you will never drive it. peasant
@@kabelokgoele1827 Elon is a fraud as well so there's that
Reminds of Swedish Christian Von Koenigsegg, he has done amazing things too as independent car maker.
@@larsstougaard7097 Another great genius
Man I got nervous when I saw the cop car! Outstanding. I’ve been dreaming the 4 motor thing for many years. Nice to see it implemented in a supercar. Congratulations Croatia.
"Your cops are still driving Crown Vics?"lmao
From such a small company,small country and small city and your car is reviewed by Jay Leno is a dream come true
Congratulations send me a direct message on Telegram for your surprise package…
Jay is old school and this car, for myself and most ppl, is like an alien experience.
You nailed it Jay,I had to know if the brake lights work with re-gen Braking ,answer 40 mins in ,of course YES! These guys have really thought out this amazing car.BRAVO!
So nice to be from Croatia and watch Nevera on Jay Leno’s Garage . Bravo Mate , stvarno si car
Mate Rimac - Luka Modric - Stipe Miocic 3 kralja
This is awesome!
- Great visual/engineering design,
- Passionate people developing the car,
- And be proud of country's history to include it in the design.
Miro is excellent! Mate Rimac with Miro knows how to present their product properly. Unlike pretty much every other hyperca OEM who just sends some random marketing guy to talk about the car, they brought the main test driver who knows the car in and out because he has certainly spent more time in the car than anyone else - Croatia should be proud plus Nikola Tesla was born in Smiljan, Austrian Empire now in Croatia!
every single bit of technology developed and integrated in this car is so impressive, but what really makes me say wow are the little things that show how with clever engineering you can solve big problems - many have been pointed out in this great episode, ill just mention the one that was overlooked but to me gives a wow effect - the car hood air intake moves independently and as you are increasing the speed of the car it positions itself in such a way to "direct" the airflow to push down the front of the car, so the faster you are driving the more "pinned" the car is to the ground. this is in my book the dictionary example of saying "if it looks stupid but it works, then it's not stupid".
Ya know this is a bitter-sweet moment for me. In the last decade it seems automobile manufacturing in the sports car segment has really reached a pinnacle - A point where the the whole car - engine, transmission, and chassis, etc has been pretty much perfected - They're efficient, fast, tight, and enjoyable. Take the new Mustang Mach 1 for example that was recently reviewed - its like the best of everything engendered well. And just when the combustion car has been perfected, we're going to be saying goodbye to it. It seems that's the way many technologies evolve. They get to a point where the product is perfected to such a degree that there is no other option but to evolve into something different. Now granted, I don't think combustion engines will be gone overnight, but I think you get the gist of what I'm saying and the emotions and sentiment behind it. And although someday, in the not to distant future, the combustion engine will be gone from new car manufacturing the memories and accomplishments of the past in terms of chassis design, brakes, suspension, etc. will be carried forward. The sweet part to this bitter-sweet evolution is that we will get amazing electric motors and technology like this Rimac Nevera. And when electric wheeled motor cars reach their pinnacle, the only next step in evolution is flying cars I would imagine. Even though its a bit sad to say goodby to the past, evolution like this is a good thing!
1:26 Panel Gap straight out of Hell
Loved the episode but I should just stop looking up how much any of these cars and just enjoy them and quit day dreaming about going out and seeing these in my garage. This car looks amazing and seems like one heck of a car to own! Love seeing what people are doing with electric cars, especially outside of Tesla and the established brands.
i am from croatia and i am proud of this hypercar being produced jay thanks for introduction of croatian hypercar nice video.

This Remac Nevera is absolutely a game changer. I can't wait to see what other projects Rimac-Bugatti introduces to the market moving forward. Love it Jay. Thank you for the review!
Design of this car is one of the best in history… for me! I cant get over how beautiful this car is
1.6 million hours. I know combined from every member of the team. But wow. That blew my mind. Amazing things take time.
I love seeing Jays face when driving this because he is like a little Kid! He has had the privilege of living his dream of comedy and his biggest dream cars. People take everything to him so he can joy ride and talk about it.
But this car is a spaceship and Jay is having the time of his life and his smile is of a child. All of us have to strive for jobs that excites and brings us happiness.
Just few days ago I saw exactly this one on the road in Zagreb, i think Mate was driving🤔 and it looks even better than on videos or photos. It's sooo awesome and quiet but badass! 😄 Amazing work Mate!
