Being extremely fast, the C_Two will also have to boast of its latest modcons, including a Level 4 Autonomy and a Facial Recognition, implying a fully driverless car capable of being used in heavily built-up locations.

‘I think, Rimac is really a genius. I also think he is going to be a legend.’ Heiko Mayer, the Powertrain project leader for Porsche’s all-electric Taycan said.

Speaking about his success, Rimac who spoke to ZeroHedge said: ‘It’s a lot of optimization, trying out things and experimenting, being fast and doing loops – concept, simulation, idea, detailed prototyping, again and again.

Three years ago, Rimac created his Concept_One, which had 1,224hp and was quickly crushed by British Presenter, Richard Hammond while on a Swiss Hillside.
