Hypercar Crash Test In-Depth Analysis | Mondays with Mate 14

In this Mondays with Mate episode, we go in-depth on passive safety in Rimac C_Two and explain the crash testing program we're going through to develop a globally-homologated hypercar for the roads worldwide. Learn more about this complex topic from our guest on the episode - Gustavo Andrade, CAE Manager. Suggest the next Mondays with Mate topic to win a part of the crashed car! We decided to give away parts of the crashed cars to fans who asked the questions we answered in this episode! In addition to that, we have another part for the author of the comment we choose for the next episode. So drop us a question in the comments for a chance to win a keepsake for your man cave! After years of simulation, the crash testing program started in 2019, first on the material and component level. An initial series of physical crash tests on a full vehicle level was also completed last year. Each element of the car had been designed by the team in Croatia to maximize the amount of energy absorbed by the crash structure and not by the cabin or carbon tub. This latest full-vehicle physical testing – necessary to finalize the carbon composite's behavior during an impact – is a confirmation of the virtual modeling.
