And the results weren&#8217;t that obvious. The Concept One beat the Porsche 918 consistently in\u00a0every race.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/tag\/porsche-918\/\">Porsche 918<\/a> was driven by Salomondrin, a supercar fanatic we all know well. Salomondrin decided to race against a Concept One to see how fast this all-electric car is. While the all-electric Croation Car was driven by no other than Mate Rimac, the CEO and and founder of Rimac Automobili. Mate Rimac has\u00a0no experience or whatsoever driving on a drag strip and still managed to get the\u00a0full potential of the Concept One.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s what Mate have to say about race:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRacing on a prepared drag strip was a first for me \u2013 I have never seen such a track in person. I thought that the grip is going to be on such insane levels that there won\u2019t be any slip at all. I had no idea what to expect \u2013 my thoughts went from \u201cWe will brake some records here today!\u201d to \u201cWill the driveshafts survive the grip?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The two met during <a href=\"http:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/montereycarweek\/\">Monterey Car Week<\/a>. It was during this time that Mate Rimac introduced the Concept One to Salomondrin and the story behind his company. Mate talked about what\u2019s the concept and goal of his company with the introduction of their Concept One. At the time that it was released, the Concept one was considered to be the first electric supercar and fastest electric automobile until it was surpassed by the Rimac Concept S.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s even more amazing about the Concept One in this particular race is that it only used up 1.96 kWh of its power for each of the quarter mile run. The race lasted for about six runs and has two test runs. The Concept One ended up with 72% power from being 95% charged at the start of the race. This is equivalent to only 0.396 gallons of gasoline consumed for all the runs!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All-Electric Car Concept One vs\u00a0Porsche 918 on a Drag Race A Porsche 918 with 887-hp and equipped with a high-performance upgrade dubbed \u201cWeissach Package\u201d is pitted against a 1,088-hp Rimac Concept One in a drag race.
