F1 champion Nico Rosberg reveals \u201cepic\u201d new electric hypercar YouTube: Nico RosbergWith the ban on new fossil fuel vehicles creeping ever closer, many celebrities are embracing the culture of electric performance vehicles. Ex-F1 champion Nico Rosberg is among them, revealing his all-new Rimac C_Two hypercar on his YouTube channel. Many countries are looking to tighten restrictions on pollution caused by gas and diesel engines, meaning EVs will likely become the norm within the next couple of decades. With electrification on the horizon, many rich car enthusiasts are starting to \u2018dip their toe\u2019 in the EV waters. Nico Rosberg is clearly a fan of performance electric vehicles and has revealed his new personal hypercar. The mind-blowingly fast Rimac C_Two. Insane performance figures from the C_Two With a quoted top speed of 412 km\/h, (256mph) 1914hp (equivalent) 2,300nm of instantaneous torque and all-wheel-drive, the C_Two will run rings around all of its conventional combustion-engined rivals. The Rimac C_Two is not only a \u2018green\u2019 hypercar being powered exclusively by batteries, but it is also the fastest-accelerating road-legal car of all time. With a 0-60mph time of just 1.85 seconds, it will literally pin the driver back in their seat as the car accelerates. Just for some context, that is almost a second faster to 60 than Nico\u2019s old F1 car, which took 2.6 seconds to reach 60 from a standing start. \u201cSo damn epic!\u201d Nico is clearly in awe of the Rimac\u2019s incredible performance capabilities, calling it \u201cso damn epic\u201d after he fell in love with it at the Geneva Motor Show. This is clearly a long-term investment for him too, saying \u201cfor me, it\u2019s just\u2026 it\u2019s the future!\u201d As expected, Nico\u2019s Rimac will be no ordinary C_Two. Speaking about his plans for the car, he explains that there will be a factory visit soon to \u2018customize\u2019 his car to his perfect specification. With performance on-tap and wonderfully \u2018green\u2019 eco-credentials, cars such as the Rimac will soon dominate the hypercar sector. If they\u2019re good enough for an ex-F1 champion such as Nico, then electric hypercars are surely good enough for everyone else.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
