Weekly Challenge: “The Future is Bright”
Sticking with the EV theme, the blisteringly-fast Rimac Concept Two stars in this week’s Weekly Challenge. With a 0-60 mph time of just 1.85 seconds, the Rimac Concept Two is one of the fastest cars in the world right now.
To complete Chapter 1, all you have to do is own and drive the Rimac. In Chapter 2, you need to unleash its full potential and maintain a speed of 250 mph (402 km/h) for over ten seconds. Considering it has 1914 hp on tap thanks to its four electric motors, that shouldn’t be too difficult.
Chapter 3 requires you to win a Road Race in the Rimac. Finally, drive 10 miles (16.1 km) in the Rimac to complete Chapter 4.
