Today the news of a new partnership between the companies Rimac and Korean car gigantom Hyundai has emerged with both side starting to develop next generation of high performance electric cars.

The agreement adopted today therefore foresees an investment of EUR 80 million, with EUR 64 million falling on the shoulders of Hyundai, and the contribution of the Kia, on the other hand, of 16 million. Together, both sides were to develop the concept of a brand-new electric car and the concept of fuel cell car, which Hyundai would then place in a growing family of N sports vehicles.

Recently they both participated in the development of Pininfarine Battista, has for a long time but engage with birtanskim Aston Martin. Hyundai, on the other hand, has already had a positive public response with a series of N families, which makes it seem that new cooperation will certainly bear rich and sweet fruit.
