Wow, what an interview. It was great to see a real friendship, and hear you both discuss its background. @Mate is such a genuine guy that is clearly thinking on another level, but humble with it. Hearing his story told with real emotion was inspirational. Thanks @Jonny and @The Late Brake Show for bringing this video to us. Looking forward to part 2!! Oh, and good to see the notepad making in attendance. 👍🏼
He comes across as such a great, normal guy. Clearly mega clever. Love the Ducati story. I can imagine Mate standing there keeping quiet while the salesman did his work!
Having met Mate on a few occasions I can confirm he is exactly as he appears in the media appearances. He's a very sharp & hugely motivated guy who has a presence way beyond his years. Good to see the dreams coming true.
This just popped up - this is amazing! Cannot wait to watch it! This is exactly what I was after, after seeing your first Rimac videos with such an inspirational guy. Well done for knowing your audience Jonny. Bloody well done.
Mate seems so chill and down to earth, like the kind of guy you could just hang out with and chat cars all day. Great work on that beast of a car Mate!
Thank you for this interview! I really enjoyed every single second. I love the respect when you let someone finish their conversation and you perfectly go into the same. Well done bro! Deserved subscribe 👍
It is unbelievable how down to Earth Mate is. Gets wet Eyes if he talks about his Peugeot Speedfight and so on. He is staying refreshingly young in Mind.
yes, very down to earth, talking about making cars you cannot buy while running a company that made 75 million euro loss last year. how do you not see a fraud and a salesman? he's just like elon, elizabeth holmes, ftx, and all the rest of them. how do these sorts of people keep fooling everyone? it's unbelievable how dumb and blind the masses are.
Can’t believe these chats with Mate Rimac haven’t had more views! This guy is just so unlike the sort of person you’d expect him to be, no ego to speak of, decent hard working bloke with clear ideas on what he wants to achieve. Keep up the hard work Jonny, high quality films as always
You Jonny, are the perfect interviewer for a conversation with Mate, you both know your stuff! This was excellent, can’t wait for part 2. After your review last week, I couldn’t be bothered watching other car Journos as you gave all the answers we needed.
This is an absolutely brilliant piece, amazing friendship and what an incredible guy so inspirational his motivation and ideas but while being so down to Earth even with everything he’s achieved is inspirational
Every school age child needs to watch this! It should be shown to reception school classes and especially to the parents! It should be shown every year and be compulsory.
Jonny...you really do pick-um!! You have done some really interesting interviews recently, Chris H and the touring car guys being my highlights (as like you I watched them bagging doors as a teen). This interveiw was even better though...can't wait till part two. With guys like this influensing the future of the automobile I feel a lot happier:)
Absolutely brilliant chat. I have so much admiration of Mate. I hope one day I can meet him. Just seems so intelligent, humble and fun. I also like to cycle off-road and escape the road ragers.
This guy is going to take over the world! Underestimate him at your peril. The best bit is that he's taking people on the journey, unlike Musk who seems to be burning those who are closest to him. Another brilliant video Jonny.
I love mate's work but he shouldn't try compare himself to elon musk hes more like Christian von Koenigsegg except in a way hes almost gone beyond in terms of finding a niche that allows him to expand his engineering prowess to benefit other manufacturers.
I feel the same way and a conversation between these two would be amazing because Elon is known for giving real answers. Also Elon probably already knows him
This is exactly how Elon was when the first Roadster came out. But of course, Elon was involved in many more things before and while Tesla was growing, so that shaped his personality too.
This is why the late brake show is one of the best RUclips channels out there because of videos like this. Also everyone loves Johnny for being just a nice guy and a car pervert.
What a fascinating interview. Mate comes over very well, as a down to earth chap who has not let his well deserved success go to his head. Bring on Part 2!
What a humble man, honestly I don't believe Elon is at this guy's level, he doesn't come from big money, he's actually thinking about solutions and implementation, I respect Mate as much as I don't care about Musk.
From EGYPT, Supporting You "MATE RIMAC" & Ur Company, How Humble, Respectful & Cool Mate Rimac, Feels like Family Friendly Soul, One of the best Interviews
Mate RImac is such a wonderful person to listen to, quiet spoken and passionate and shows quality through the product. Spent a hour or so on the Geneva stand in 2018 and was blown away at the level of detail. Looking forward to part 2 of this interview
A truly fascinating fellow , he will go down in history as an amazing forward thinking human being , long may his success continue. Thanks for the interview I have been hoping for , I'm looking forward to part 2 .
I think that any of us can't actually imagine what Mate already see in the future. He said that they are just starting! Wow, what a start, but, if this is the start for him, what is at the other end that he sees?
the level of in depth information of this interview series is unreached. Jonny knows how to catch the audience. Glad that you started this show. Kind of missed you at fully charged
Yes Elon Musk (a la "Technoking" and "emperor of Mars") is a narcissist and a megalomaniac. Not someone who will gladly rub elbows with ordinary people. Check out his rad rages against poor factory workers and subordinates. The guy is pure jerk, who makes Steve Jobs look like a saint. LOL
he's probably exceeding Elon if compared age to age, and with this pace he'll actually exceed him in some areas in the real time, first of all maybe profitability?..
What an interview! and what a character, this (at least for me) is one of THE best if not the best interview I've seen so far. You are doing phenomenal work man I'm really looking forward for part 2
I've been watching car shows for decades, from when there were only two or three "serious" shows and now there are thousands, blah, blah, blah - just when I thought there were no new versions or "takes" or perspectives, The Late Brake Show comes along - I have always enjoyed Jonny's opinions and knowledge and unique views on autos but this is a new level - production, dialogue, subject matter and the everyday enthusiast's point of view - I'm hooked - thank you for what you do, how you do it and what you show - I love it!
Johnny you keep bringing us such gems of interesting borderline educational content. What a guy and what a company. If I’m honest I believe he’s selling himself short by aspiring to E. Musk levels. From a technical as well as business model point of view he’s up there with the best, in fact Rimac at the moment probably his the best. The guy have big relevant renowned OEM buying their services and product. Can’t wait for part 2 👍
Thanks Johnny for this fantastic interview. Mate seems to be ‘one of us’, just a car guy but in this case with a great mind and coupled with the sheer determination of turning impossible dreams into reality.
Goodness me Jonny, what an extremely nice guy, so relaxed, so forward thinking, so many ideas yet to come from him, this guy is the future, why aren't all manufacturers turning to him for his tech. Another brilliant interview, very much looking forward to part 2.
9:18 That is one of the most profound things I have ever heard from a man like this. A man absolutely bursting with ideas, having the humility and the wisdom to realise that the copyright system is totally broken and that all it does, is stifle creativity.
Thanks Johnny great interview. I always watch any content about Mate or Rimac a brilliant man who is able to keep his EGO in check. Notice how he always mentions his team that started it all with him. It's not me me me 😁😁😁
Best channel EVER! Loving your content at the moment Jonny! I've been telling everyone for years that an ebike is the most fun you can have on wheels. 🙂
Rimac seems a really nice, hyper intelligent guy. Musk also has that extreme intelligence but it's mixed with sociopathy and unpleasantness. Musk is a total bellend.
Oh man! So happy to see "coming up in Part 2" at the end. Now I just have to pray that there are 30 parts! I genuinely could have listened to the two of you talk for many hours! What an incredible guy and an incredible interview.
Wow, what an interview. It was great to see a real friendship, and hear you both discuss its background. @Mate is such a genuine guy that is clearly thinking on another level, but humble with it.
Hearing his story told with real emotion was inspirational.
Thanks @Jonny and @The Late Brake Show for bringing this video to us. Looking forward to part 2!!
Oh, and good to see the notepad making in attendance. 👍🏼
The chairs look cozy.
You guys are kinda getting close to Elon Musk...
the ones that didn't make it to the interview 😜
Great work Mate I hope one of your chapters includes building an affordable line of cars in the future - I hope to be able to buy one
The lads over at Rimac HQ were really missing out on those chairs
I meni :) Bravo Mate. Što reći.. svaka čast, želim ti puno uspjeha u daljnjem radu.
love the middle finger speed mode lol
It was so awkward ...He tried to joke about it but still theres a scene of Mate showing him the middle finger..Not so cool ...
@@cocosloan3748 Well if he took offense who cares. Couldnt take a effing joke
@@cocosloan3748 Too bad you don't like fun lmao
@@davidkirinic9463 He didn't take offense...
Plot twist: Same guy who sold Mate's dad a Ducati also rented them these chairs 😂😂
This guy’s energy is so infectious.
This guy is extremely intelligent and forward thinking - one of those geniuses!
He comes across as such a great, normal guy. Clearly mega clever. Love the Ducati story. I can imagine Mate standing there keeping quiet while the salesman did his work!
His mum must have been super cross when he came back with the Ducati!
@@Thametownguy His father probably slept on the couch for the entire month lol
We ALL want to see the drag race between Elon and Mate in their respective cars...
RIP Elon
I want to see them run a quarter mile 😂
I really don't.
too bad elons roadster is floating in space, otherwise it would be roadster #1 vs eM3
I’d imagine Elon would be insufferable if he won and petulant if he lost.
A genuine guy who hasn’t forgotten his roots. Thanks for bringing this to us Jonny - looking forward to part 2!
Hey Johnny, greetings from Croatia! We are so proud of Mate.
Having met Mate on a few occasions I can confirm he is exactly as he appears in the media appearances. He's a very sharp & hugely motivated guy who has a presence way beyond his years. Good to see the dreams coming true.
2 great minds from Croatia: Tesla and Rimac
??? Elon is from South Africa.
@@williamarmstrong7199 He is refering to Nikola Tesla, who was born in present day Croatia. Tesla(car brand) was named after Nikola Tesla......
@@williamarmstrong7199 are you okay?
@@lillypichu4566 he's alright just not educated enough 😂
@@kurokuronja5647 wait isn’t Nikola Tesla Serbian ?
I think Elon should be trying to meet Mate, not the other way around. This man is astonishing.
You forgot that Elon owns "space X" not just electric car company. Space X and Nasa are in the process of going to the moon and Mars.
@@m5184jhd Elon Musk is a just a businessman, Rimac is a car guy. They are not the same.
Man is a legend.
What a fantastic interview, finally someone talks to Mate that understands cars and lets his passion come through. Great job Jonny!
One of the best interviews with Rimac out there, thoroughly enjoyed this!
This was top. Such an interesting guy, and top questions and comment from Johnny as always. Gg’s.
This just popped up - this is amazing! Cannot wait to watch it! This is exactly what I was after, after seeing your first Rimac videos with such an inspirational guy. Well done for knowing your audience Jonny. Bloody well done.
You just cannot dislike this guy. Can't wait for part two. Cheers Johnny
Mate Rimac is one of the most down to earth geniuses on this planet. THANK you for the amazing interview!

Welcome aboard TLBS. Thank you for watching.
For the Ducati story alone this is the coolest guy on the planet.

*Me:* "Oh, interesting! Wait, 25 minutes? I'll give like 5".
*Also me:* _"Wait, it's already been 25 minutes?!"_
Mad respect to Mate and his crew!
That is the best praise. Thank you. 👌🏽
Brilliant interview can't wait for pt2.
I feel at home with these two people. Love the story!
Can’t believe these chats with Mate Rimac haven’t had more views! This guy is just so unlike the sort of person you’d expect him to be, no ego to speak of, decent hard working bloke with clear ideas on what he wants to achieve.
Keep up the hard work Jonny, high quality films as always
This bloke is the future for the automotive industy.
You Jonny, are the perfect interviewer for a conversation with Mate, you both know your stuff! This was excellent, can’t wait for part 2.
After your review last week, I couldn’t be bothered watching other car Journos as you gave all the answers we needed.
Paul, much appreciated. Welcome aboard TLBS!
Awesome, but Jonny can you please increase the audio volume. Both this vid and the last are really quiet despite me cranking it to the max.
Great video. I love your relaxed interview style and that you let the other person speak. He is definitely a clever chap!
Mate is such an inspiration from every single aspect!
He is the absolute definition of a role model!
The Kid's a genius. The Electric Enzo !
There is some amazing backstory in here that I've not heard before. What a fascinating and brilliant guy.
This is an absolutely brilliant piece, amazing friendship and what an incredible guy so inspirational his motivation and ideas but while being so down to Earth even with everything he’s achieved is inspirational
WOw, cant wait for Part 2. That sneak peek at the end, really got me hooked.
Every school age child needs to watch this! It should be shown to reception school classes and especially to the parents! It should be shown every year and be compulsory.
What a guy, I genuinely knew very little about him until now.
The speed mode finger is really thoughtful! Man, I love Mate!!😂🙏🏻
He's such a cool and humble guy and his company will have significant impact on the EV market in the coming years.
Jonny...you really do pick-um!! You have done some really interesting interviews recently, Chris H and the touring car guys being my highlights (as like you I watched them bagging doors as a teen). This interveiw was even better though...can't wait till part two. With guys like this influensing the future of the automobile I feel a lot happier:)
Absolutely brilliant chat. I have so much admiration of Mate. I hope one day I can meet him. Just seems so intelligent, humble and fun. I also like to cycle off-road and escape the road ragers.
What a humble guy , And how pretty is that M3 wow! great interview 👌
Watch part 2 for the full M3 walk around.
@@TheLateBrakeShow Can't wait for that it looks amazing 👌great content as always 👍
This was fantastic, exactly what I was hoping for after seeing the Nevera vid. When's part 2 dropping?
In 24 hours. 👍🏼
Part 1, 25 minutes just flew by, so interesting to hear him talk about the background. Nice interview, excited for part 2.
Cheers
This guy is going to take over the world! Underestimate him at your peril. The best bit is that he's taking people on the journey, unlike Musk who seems to be burning those who are closest to him. Another brilliant video Jonny.
I love mate's work but he shouldn't try compare himself to elon musk hes more like Christian von Koenigsegg except in a way hes almost gone beyond in terms of finding a niche that allows him to expand his engineering prowess to benefit other manufacturers.
I feel the same way and a conversation between these two would be amazing because Elon is known for giving real answers. Also Elon probably already knows him
He’s WAAAAY more interesting and cool than Elon. Mate is great
@@johanneswarn5488 being cool isn't important. Starting a business in a new industry makes them both impressive and worth talking too
This is exactly how Elon was when the first Roadster came out. But of course, Elon was involved in many more things before and while Tesla was growing, so that shaped his personality too.
@@macberry4048 yeah and no offence but Elon didn't start EV company, space tech yes, but EV no, so Mate is so much more or of a real car guy.
This is why the late brake show is one of the best RUclips channels out there because of videos like this. Also everyone loves Johnny for being just a nice guy and a car pervert.
Mate Is going to change cars forever and not just hyper cars but all electric cars. He will be a legend.
What a fascinating interview. Mate comes over very well, as a down to earth chap who has not let his well deserved success go to his head. Bring on Part 2!
Mate is like a younger, hairier even more energetic Christian Von Koenigsegg. Absolutely brilliant video Jonny, very much looking forward to part two.
Great yarn. What a cool guy. The ev world is in great hands 🙌
Flip the bike the bird to get full power! Laughed out loud!
What a humble man, honestly I don't believe Elon is at this guy's level, he doesn't come from big money, he's actually thinking about solutions and implementation, I respect Mate as much as I don't care about Musk.
What a beautiful person. Johnny I am pretty sure you are very similar to Mate. What a nice interview with two beautiful persons :) Love it.
What an incredible man with such vision and determination
I would like to shake his hand 👍👍

No one else is doing this…. Bravo on the content Mr Smith 👏
Excellent Jonny, what a great guy he is.

I hope there is more than just two parts too this interview.... This guy is so enjoyable to watch and just talk about his passion
We have enough material for probably 4 parts!

I've said this before - your interviews, who you pick, the questions you ask, the way you ask them, are the very best I've seen. Fabulous work, Jonny.
What a guy!!! Thanks a lot for the interview. I really enjoyed it!!
the level of in depth information of this interview series is unreached. Jonny knows how to catch the audience. Glad that you started this show. Kind of missed you at fully charged
Mate is everything that Elon Musk isn't. I'd happily go for a pint with Mate!

What an absolute dude. Humble, funny and vibrant
Mate Rimac is just amazing... Great show from Johnny
"But not Elon Musk level"
Seriously, Mate > Elon.
*Mate* Please do not aspire to Elon Musk Douchebag Level. LoL
he's probably exceeding Elon if compared age to age, and with this pace he'll actually exceed him in some areas in the real time, first of all maybe profitability?..
@@deeplato5647 Lol I agree. That guy's a complete and utter jerk. Unfortunately, he has fanboys to support him...
@@TD1237 His fanboys may be very annoying but Elon Musk haters are more annoying, they sometimes have stupid reasons to look down on Elon Musk.
Musk is in Tesla for money, his real company is Space X, so its not fair to compare this way:)

The famous passport at the start :p
This is the most interesting idle chat I heard in a while.
Thank you. Well, I haven't done one since Christmas due to Corona!
Mate is such a genuine guy , a real innovator and engineer by nature, not a spoiled brat just pure processing power, love this guy!
he's such a story teller....anecdotes and histories....thats what makes him so relatable....great episode, cannot wait until the next one...
Best channel EVER! Loving your content at the moment Jonny!
I've been telling everyone for years that an ebike is the most fun you can have on wheels. 🙂
Middle finger for full power mode....genius. You said exactly what i was thinking about how hard Mate was being on himself....
I can honestly say, I would really like to meet Mate Rimac! To meet Elon, no, not on my list.
Rimac seems a really nice, hyper intelligent guy. Musk also has that extreme intelligence but it's mixed with sociopathy and unpleasantness. Musk is a total bellend.
Rimac has passion, Musk has greed......Reminds me of Edison and Tesla beef :D
Oh man! So happy to see "coming up in Part 2" at the end. Now I just have to pray that there are 30 parts! I genuinely could have listened to the two of you talk for many hours!

The major difference between Rimac and Musk is that Rimac seems like a really nice guy whereas Musk is an absolute bellend.
Another great video Jonny.
Did not expect this to happen! Incredible person. And there will be a part 2!
I love Mate, he's a true genius with vision and seems like a totally genuine guy.
What a role model!
