Does Rimac sound familiar? This is an electric car company born in Croatia. It released the first Concept One electric supercar in 2016, with a total power of 1088 horsepower and a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 2.6 seconds. I may feel a little accustomed to it now, but the power of 1,000 horses placed 4 years ago is a very scary existence!

Recently, a designer named Max Schneider published a set of renderings of the Rimac Scalatan concept car on the Internet, and made some comments based on the corresponding pictures provided. According to reports, the new car is set as the prototype of the supercar in 2080, which also reveals the technological level of industrial manufacturing in the latter half of the century.

The car is equipped with an amazing aerodynamic carbon nanotube graphene outer surface, and a chassis made of 3D carbon nanotube titanium graphite is assembled. This seemingly organic chassis gives the car its structure and strength. At the same time, the interior is set to be air-cored to store the car’s lithium battery. At this time, the battery and oxygen (the air transported through the chassis when the car is driving) will react chemically. And then converted into energy! Simply put, the Scalatan concept car is like a living organism, driven by breathing air.

The Scalatan concept car supports renewable energy, just like the super mobile charging with Rimac. This concept uses an aerodynamic lithium-oxygen battery. At the same time, it also has a unique inductive charging function under the chassis, which can charge itself while driving. And support the characteristics of lithium-oxygen batteries, by offsetting the energy demand of some cars, and extracting electrical energy from the inductive storage road, which includes futurism.

Although the chassis is hollow, allowing air to fully charge the battery, the tires do not have the same function. Scalatan uses airless wheels, after3D printingTechnical forging, reusing the unique lattice structure to absorb the impact of the road, at the same time, it also has the functions of wear resistance and puncture resistance.
The Schneider designer also involved a two-pronged idea in the process of designing for Scalatan. The other is future research to understand how cars will be manufactured and operated in 2080, as well as a detailed study of Rimac’s own design language. , To help the car absorb the brand DNA of the Croatian automobile company.
In this regard, Scalatan has done a pretty good job in demonstrating future technologies, while fully adopting Rimac’s design language. It uses a unique cut shape in front of the rear wheel, a detail that is common in all Rimac models. At the same time, sleek headlights and floating taillights that look very attractive from any angle are also used.

Scalatan provides doors like ordinary cars, except that the door is opened from the front panel upwards. It is said that the purpose of this is to show the aggressiveness of the new car, just like a fierce beast opening its big mouth and leaking its fangs. .
The gap on the side (and front) of the chassis allows you to enter the interior of the car, and the driver and passenger seats are in a 1+1 layout, just like driving a fighter jet. Of course, the car did not set specific performance information, but expressed that it is very fast and can have a speed comparable to that of a fighter jet! Think about it, today’s top sports cars are tested by Cyclonus fighters, and it shouldn’t be a problem to surpass the technology in the next 60 years.
