Tesla Roadster rival Rimac C_Two is almost sold out despite $2M price tag
Next-generation Tesla Roadster rival Rimac C_Two is proving to be incredibly popular, practically selling out its projected 150-unit run in less than three weeks.
Reports of the C_Two’s sales were posted on Croatian news website Index.hr, which cited Krešo Ćorić, Sales Manager at Rimac Automobili. According to Ćorić, as of March 29, there were only a “few” more of the vehicles that are available for purchase. What’s more, Ćorić revealed that on average, Rimac’s customers have added around $600,000 worth of extra options.
The good news comes on the heels of the electric car startup’s growth and development this year. As we noted in a previous report, Rimac recently announced that it had signed a deal with China’s Camel Group, a battery manufacturer in the region, to develop and manufacture electric motors and electric car batteries. The two companies will be operating under the name Zhongkeluorui Technology Co. Ltd., with Rimac expecting to bring its expertise in electric car technologies and research into the joint venture.
Rimac’s C_Two hypercar is just the second vehicle that the Croatian electric car startup has produced. Its first vehicle, the Concept_One, had an incredibly limited run of 10 units. This time around, however, Rimac is aiming to build 150 units of the C_Two.
The C_Two brings some insane specs to the table. During its unveiling, Rimac announced some impressive figures for the all-electric hypercar. The vehicle’s 0-60 mph time was listed at 1.85 seconds, which is 0.05 seconds faster than Tesla’s next-generation Roadster. The C_Two is also capable of reaching a top speed of 258 mph, thanks to its electric motors that produce 2,300 Nm of torque.
Adding icing on the cake, Rimac claimed that the C_Two would be able to complete at least two laps around the 12.9-mile Nurburgring without a drop in performance. This is particularly noteworthy, especially considering that Tesla’s vehicles are yet to master full-power track driving.
Rimac is aiming to start the production of the C_Two hypercar on 2020, which also happens to be the year when Tesla will start the manufacture of its next-generation Roadster. Unveiled last November, the next-generation Roadster boasts specs that are comparable, if not superior to the $2 million Rimac C_Two.
During the electric car’s unveiling, Elon Musk stated that the next-gen Roadster would be capable of hitting 0-60 mph in 1.9 seconds and run the quarter-mile in 8.9 seconds. The upcoming Roadster will also feature 10,000 Nm of torque, which is 77% more than what is offered by Rimac’s hypercar. Tesla’s supercar is also far more affordable at just $200,000 – $250,000.
Nevertheless, the Rimac C_Two’s sales are noteworthy. It takes skill, after all, to make a $2 million electric car that can practically sell out in just three weeks.

Starlink wrapped up 2025 with impressive growth, adding more than 4.6 million new active customers and expanding service to 35 additional countries, territories, and markets. The company also completed deployment of its first-generation Direct to Cell constellation, launching over 650 satellites in just 18 months to enable cellular connectivity.
SpaceX highlighted Starlink’s impressive 2025 progress in an extensive report.
Key achievements from Starlink’s 2025 Progress
Starlink connected over 4.6 million new customers with high-speed internet while bringing service to 35 more regions worldwide in 2025. Starlink is now connecting 9.2 million people worldwide. The service achieved this just weeks after hitting its 8 million customer milestone.
Starlink is now available in 155 markets, including areas that are unreachable by traditional ISPs. As per SpaceX, Starlink has also provided over 21 million airline passengers and 20 million cruise passengers with reliable high-speed internet connectivity during their travels.
Starlink Direct to Cell
Starlink’s Direct to Cell constellation, more than 650 satellites strong, has already connected over 12 million people at least once, marking a breakthrough in global mobile coverage.
Starlink Direct to Cell is currently rolled out to 22 countries and 6 continents, with over 6 million monthly customers. Starlink Direct to Cell also has 27 MNO partners to date.
“This year, SpaceX completed deployment of the first generation of the Starlink Direct to Cell constellation, with more than 650 satellites launched to low-Earth orbit in just 18 months. Starlink Direct to Cell has connected more than 12 million people, and counting, at least once, providing life-saving connectivity when people need it most,” SpaceX wrote.

Giga Nevada celebrates production of 6 millionth drive unit
To celebrate the milestone, the Giga Nevada team gathered for a celebratory group photo.
Tesla’s Giga Nevada has reached an impressive milestone, producing its 6 millionth drive unit as 2925 came to a close.
To celebrate the milestone, the Giga Nevada team gathered for a celebratory group photo.
6 million drive units
The achievement was shared by the official Tesla Manufacturing account on social media platform X. “Congratulations to the Giga Nevada team for producing their 6 millionth Drive Unit!” Tesla wrote.
The photo showed numerous factory workers assembled on the production floor, proudly holding golden balloons that spelled out “6000000″ in front of drive unit assembly stations. Elon Musk gave credit to the Giga Nevada team, writing, “Congrats on 6M drive units!” in a post on X.
Giga Nevada’s essential role
Giga Nevada produces drive units, battery packs, and energy products. The facility has been a cornerstone of Tesla’s scaling since opening, and it was the crucial facility that ultimately enabled Tesla to ramp the Model 3 and Model Y. Even today, it serves as Tesla’s core hub for battery and drivetrain components for vehicles that are produced in the United States.
Giga Nevada is expected to support Tesla’s ambitious 2026 targets, including the launch of vehicles like the Tesla Semi and the Cybercab. Tesla will have a very busy 2026, and based on Giga Nevada’s activities so far, it appears that the facility will be equally busy as well.

Tesla Supercharger network delivers record 6.7 TWh in 2025
The network now exceeds 75,000 stalls globally, and it supports even non-Tesla vehicles across several key markets.
Tesla’s Supercharger Network had its biggest year ever in 2025, delivering a record 6.7 TWh of electricity to vehicles worldwide.
To celebrate its busy year, the official @TeslaCharging account shared an infographic showing the Supercharger Network’s growth from near-zero in 2012 to this year’s impressive milestone.
Record 6.7 TWh delivered in 2025
The bar chart shows steady Supercharger energy delivery increases since 2012. Based on the graphic, the Supercharger Network started small in the mid-2010s and accelerated sharply after 2019, when the Model 3 was going mainstream.
Each year from 2020 onward showed significantly more energy delivery, with 2025’s four quarters combining for the highest total yet at 6.7 TWh.
This energy powered millions of charging sessions across Tesla’s growing fleet of vehicles worldwide. The network now exceeds 75,000 stalls globally, and it supports even non-Tesla vehicles across several key markets. This makes the Supercharger Network loved not just by Tesla owners but EV drivers as a whole.
Resilience after Supercharger team changes
2025’s record energy delivery comes despite earlier 2024 layoffs on the Supercharger team, which sparked concerns about the system’s expansion pace. Max de Zegher, Tesla Director of Charging North America, also highlighted that “Outside China, Superchargers delivered more energy than all other fast chargers combined.”
Longtime Tesla owner and FSD tester Whole Mars Catalog noted the achievement as proof of continued momentum post-layoffs. At the time of the Supercharger team’s layoffs in 2024, numerous critics were claiming that Elon Musk was halting the network’s expansion altogether, and that the team only remained because the adults in the room convinced the juvenile CEO to relent.
Such a scenario, at least based on the graphic posted by the Tesla Charging team on X, seems highly implausible.
