Rimac between V16 Bugatti engine and Tesla Roadster with mills

They could not have more different faces from each other and from the same medal, that of perfect performance, Hybrid project of Bugatti V16 and Tesla Roadster.

Shortly after the Molsheim company’s announcement of the Chiron’s successor arriving in a few months, Mate Rimac has revealed more than just an electric motor. It gives light to some internal elementsalthough in specifications developed by November 2022.

Bugatti and the V16 engine challenge

“At that time we already had full engines running on the dyno. It’s not about some crazy idea or rendering or image reconstruction: it’s really what will turn into reality.“, commented the CEO. Rimac is the biggest owner of Bugatti, referring to the V16 engine. More is evident from the revealed features, such as the V16 architecture and two banks at 90 degrees. “There are many more wonders waiting to be revealed by the rest of the car. I’m very proud of what the team has been able to achieve, without going crazy for me in recent years.”

So far Bugatti’s plan for a hybrid hypercar. Then there is another face of extreme performance, Musk’s announcement of the Tesla Roadster that will reveal the final model by the end of the yearexpected to post a 0-96 km/h time of less than a second.

Tesla Roadster, only 1″ mills for 0-100

Pressed on the record, Rimac recited already familiar positions from recent days. Responding to a user on social media, he explained how the announced time “It is possible using mills. We have created a simulation. The problem is that you release the air for 2-3 seconds, but then you have a lot of dead weight that you carry with you (tanks, compressors, valves, nozzles).

The same happens with fans: they give you more grip but it needs something like 30 thousand Nm on the wheels to accelerate from 0 to 100 per hour. less than 1 second. This means requiring large motors, inverters, gearboxes, drive shafts. More than that the machine must be very light, on the contrary you cannot develop too much load with the fan (indirect reference to McMurtry Speirling’s project; ed.) on the contrary the tires would be loaded quickly by any car with the normal weight of a large car. Especially if it’s electricity.

Again, there’s extra weight to carry when you’re not doing 0-100. So, Reactors are the only way to do this, but they bring a lot of negatives.”
