The car design is fine, my question is they have no real world driving data??? Because of that, I assume it will operate within a tight tolerance of where you can go. It’s good to see others trying but I think the march of 9’s will make it difficult for them once operating as others are finding out. Tesla’s general AI solution I think will win in the end.
Rimac collaborates with Alphabet (Google) which has the third largest AI capacity in the US, Tesla's Dojo is not even on the top 10 list in the US, no need to worry.
@@BranislavB-hx9zy Tesla has NVIDIA chips though and over 6 million vehicles collecting real world data which is required for it to work in the first place. In order to catch up you'll need to build more factories than Tesla and at bare minimum be equally efficient in each factory at producing vehicles and on top of that you'll need the capital and expertise for those factories. After this you'll need approximately $250B in order to build those vehicles and lots of human workers & automation. After this you'll need to find +6m people willing to buy those vehicles and hope you can sell them at a profit. After this you'll need them to actively drive around (more than Tesla) in order to catch up to their amount of data. After this you'll need to be able to process the data faster than Tesla & actually take advantage of that data correctly and so on. Nobody is catching up, it's game over.

Guys, guys,guys,listen, what about a some sort of electric vehicle that going to drive around city and you could jump on it on special places, sit or stand and it’s like a room and can pick up a ton of people so you don’t need a ton of separate vehicles, what an idea huh
Vehicles for 1 to 2 people are actually more efficient at delivering people to their individual destinations. There certainly will be autonomous busses in the future once this is scalable.

Concept's are easy. It looks expensive to produce for something that is meant to be a utility where people want to pay the lowest price to go a short distance in the city, typically.
What we need is better buses and subways. Then we wouldn’t need so many cars and taxis. I think limiting it to 2 passengers is a mistake. People go out at night with a group of friends, families travel to the airport or train station or to grandma’s house. 3 passengers makes more sense. But they have the data so we’ll see. In America this is a tough sell other than NYC and maybe LA and Chicago.

They left out how it drives autonomously 😂 the owner even said don’t worry about it. Seems they have nothing except a car filled with LiDAR sensor. Sensors Tesla says don’t work. This is nothing except the high level concepts of a Robotaxi support system.
Stop saying why does it look like a car, that's becuase it is a car, the fact it drives itself has nothing to do with it, car is defined as a 4 wheeled vehicle for transporting passengers, that's what this is.
Its a nice car but no one have a full autonomus car. Just needed this to say, that means autonomy level 5 and no one had that at this point, so why do you say its fully autonomu?s
Not making larger ones seems like a mistake. having to pay 2 or 3 taxis when you could go with one will get expensive fast. They don't have make a lot of them, just a few per fleet is enough.
This is what I'm waiting for. I don't like dealing with other drivers. No more insurance, maintenance, etc. That would save thousands of dollars each year. I like looking for new ways to cut my expenses down.
The Chinese has autonomous self driving cars on the road. Hope this company release the product as soon as possible before the Chinese copy their designs
Again very limited areas in a few cities and also using expensive LIDAR and have to map the city streets and constantly renew mapping. Tesla will have to make some adjustments for driving in China but once implemented the Tesla FSD cars will be able to drive anywhere on main roads. The same for setting up in Europe. China and Rimac will only be limited to major cities and large freeways connecting them. They won´t work in towns or villages.
I love this design. But the hard part is actually getting a car to drive itself, which, no one has achieved yet. Tesla is nearly there, but that took 6m vehicles worth of driving data , mutli billions and 10 years.
The Teslae are reasonable at it, but having tried full self drive a few times in a friends Model 3 last month, it's not ready for prime time. As a take-over for a long trip on the freeway or interstate - likely. Navigating a busy downtown or dealing with roundabouts, terrifying.
Achieving it is not the only issue. In the US public transportation is only so popular and there are plenty of options already. I just don't see more people using public transportation just because there is no driver. It's still shared with others and it's not waiting for you to make a quick get away when needed. Our use of cars is not just pre planned trips from one location to another. Sometimes we just "go for a drive", we see what's new and stop anytime we see something interesting. There have been many estimates about how much the market is worth and I don't think any of them are close to reality and might even be based on getting 100% of the market with no competition. There is no way to make back the money spent on these things.
@frankcoffey Robotaxis will be on par with public transport costs, but you now also have your own space, no need to wait in long queues for trains/busses etc. You can relax, stretch out, watch a movie/do work etc. That's a huge value add for the consumer
@@louisdude1 I still don't think that's new customers. It's just a slice of the pie of people that will consider public transportation at all. We shall see what that's worth but I think it's going to be a tiny fraction of what has been estimated.
This is the biggest thing since the horse gave way to the car. I'm a Tesla shareholder and I find this super exciting [yes, I know this will be a rival]. Tesla will have to go some with its Robotaxi to be this good. This has been properly thought out. I'm assuming the automotive driving technology will succeed, because given enough time, realistic goals usually are, and FSD isn't pie-in-the-sky, despite what people with little imagination and knowledge might say. Yes, I'll hail one of these around about the time I either buy my next BEV or I keep the cash.
The factory for it is built, the showcase city and the country are fully in it. Its not the car, its not legal restrictions, those things won't run high speed on high ways its the business case behind it. Rimac, will again use this as a show case and make money with the tech behind it.
Bugatti has just as much experience with building cars at large scale as the next startup. Even with big investors backing (Lucid/Nio/etc) them up almost none of them end up mass producing cars.
Any manufacturer that is REALLY SERIOUS😳about manufacturing autonomous vehicles must incorporate ultrasonic sensors🤔(lidar), radar😮and cameras😇. You will NEVER😱ACHIEVE 'Level 5' autonomy with "cameras only"🤯..!
One thing that seems very strange to me is that Tesla (and other small start-ups) were working on "Robo-taxi" - independent unmanned vehicle that would serve as taxi as a form of transportation. Yes, excitement is there, innovation and all that... but stop and think for a moment: WHY? WHY are they going that route, investing ton of money to get that concept into reality... They must know something we do not know - and that is, discontinuance of a today's car/transportation vehicles and into gazillion robo-taxis that would serve you to offer transportation where you want to go... That is where Bugatti apparently knows something as well aligning to the Tesla and other small start-ups... how will their investment pay off? They get this manufactured, and cities subscribe and order thousands of these for their metrolpolitan and suburb residential areas? Bottom line - I like the innovation, but I do not like that progressive modernization that is very coy and very manipulative of "nothing wrong to see here"... You tell me, if I am wrong, I am wrong, but there is no other logical reason they would throw millions into this...
It really is the elephant in the room and quite disappointing that they didn't press the issue. That said, what they are doing here really seems to be asking for Waymo to license their software stack, which might in fact not be a bad bet given how Google (Android, etc) have operated in the past. Conversely, they might be trying to sell the physical cars to Waymo itself, which has seemingly given up on developing its own car in favor of partnerships (Jaguar i-Pace being the current test bed of choice). Rimac really made its name as a supplier to others so the fact that there could be a lot more to this iceberg than we can see makes a lot of sense, especially if they are deep in talks.
The autonomous driving is done by Mobileye. Rimac Technology does, as far as I know, all of their infotainments, applications and software on the Controller Area Network (CAN) level themselves, so it will likely be the case with Verne as well.
@@YourD3estinY Good catch. Another big OEM provider, although I wonder how their full autonomy software will stack up to Waymo. There is a big difference between driver assistance and full autonomy and they seem pretty untested on the latter.
Doesn't sound ready to take on Tesla. Tesla Robotaxi is designed to be significantly cheaper. I wish Rimac all the luck, and I think this will do well in limited markets/volume. But it won't touch Tesla on cost/price, or global scale.
As someone who works in the autonomous car industry. I've been in a total of 3 different driverless cars on public roads. It takes a lot of engineers to write code for these cars.
@@OneManOnFire Not to mention capital, which Rimac being a tiny company doesn't have. Seems like a desperate attempt to get some funding because the company is going under.
@@OneManOnFire Tesla has more and better engineers than Rimac, Tesla has the best AI and autonomous engineers period. The best engineers want to work at Tesla and SpaceX. Rimac has essentially nothing in these fields and you can see that where they have offloaded the whole autonomous part of the project to MobileEye. MobelEye is going to fail at autonomous, they are using the wrong approach. So Rimac has nothing here but a concept on how a RoboTaxi system may work. That is the easy part, trivial even.
Concept of robotaxi is interesting and could have potential in the future, but problem are people who will ride the taxi, they are the one who will deteriorate cars faster and car could got nasty. Therefore i think this type of taxi should be very expensive, because there is less chance that person who can afford it will be some average drunk joe that will puke all over the car and give it some scratches. And starting this in Zagreb is good starting point to prove if I am right or wrong.
If only Rimac had agi software so the car could drive itself ... hmmm, I wonder if there's a company that's spent a decade developing just that and a fleet of millions that provides the data to train it. Long game thinking required.
The car is good but the need for very expensive hardware (Lidar) makes it not scalable and I'm assuming they will need to map the roads for it to drive on so it is ringfenced like Waymo.
i agree. it’s weird rimac would come out with smth like this when elon has been trying to make Teslas drive themselves for a gazillion years and still can’t.
Don't underestimate Mate Rimac. Also, don't overestimate Elon and his many failed ideas like the Hyperloop, Boring Company, stainless steel rocket and pointless 44 Bn$ acquisition of Twitter ;-)
This company currently manufactures 150 units per year. Not sure if they’ll even be able to scale an AV, especially an electric AV. Anyone can build a few very expensive cars, but not many can scale these at an affordable price. I say if they can scale these at 20-30k each, then they may have a shot, but something tells me the LiDAR is going to be very expensive haha
They say in Video which company developed autonomous driving software and there are videos of those cars driving without driver. Only thing Rimac did different is they removed the fron seats and the wheel. They did not make New software.

This is the perfect model for the electric car. I thought of this first! Haha maybe but jk. Verne is cool and Rimac is cool yay. 💯 Cheers from Florida 🌴🤙🏼
This is surprisingly similar, (albeit larger) to the Tesla robotaxi prototype, or what is being said to be the Tesla robotaxi. I've thought the walk-in, four seat (or more) facing-seat, "toaster" type makes more sense. Taking luggage in with you. Huge, radically sloped windshields do not improve aerodynamics and induce problems. Curious.
Another home run for Mate and his team at Rimac technology, what an awesome technology and actually looks great would love version with steering wheel 😊❤❤😂😂. Tom as always great video and keep up with awesome job😊😊❤
I cant imagine how much rides will cost to make up for the expenses of producing all these vehicles, especially since they only have one purpose, for a limited customer base in specific areas.
have you seen how much a taxi costs? you don't have to pay the driver anymore, without the need of a steering wheel, dash board, etc, costs could be the same or less than an actual car.

It will never get cheaper, they just find novel new ways of getting more of that revenue in the pockets of shareholders rather than the consumer.
@@Renzsu the big difference is people aren't the ones buying these cars. they just have to pay for the fair which if it can compete with ubers or taxis then it's worth it. the push for ev's is basically telling people to get rid of their current vehicle and buy an ev and have a payment that you probably didn't have before.
whats wrong with that? most of the time it's two people or less like they said. if it can be cheap enough, having 2 of them to use could be better than a regular taxi or taxi van. the big thing is how much a fare would be.

Dead men walking. Nice eye candy. Ask these people to put their money where their mouths are and actually demonstrate how well their FSD works - They have nothing! Tesla is the only company with proven and working FSD AI technology which has been in development since 2020 through its FSD Beta program, using 8 HD cameras and no lidar. The AI software uses nural-net technology which learns through driver training, not hard coding. This requires vast amounts of mainframe computing power and hardware which nobody else currently has. Rimac may produce the vehicle but may have to license the FSD compute from Tesla if available.
so more buses in cities? why not a small car that can be parked away until needed? instead of buses doing routes all day long and having people having to walk from every destination. why can't someone just have their own taxi so to speak? i think it's a much better idea than a bus. smaller vehicle, don't have a bus with 3 or 4 people inside waiting around until their stop.
@@alastairhatt360 Tesla doesn't even have a prototype driverless vehicle. Tesla is all about hype. They were the first to announce an electric pickup truck but other manufacturers beat them to that.

I saw it in person and I can say that, for a taxy- it is big, but only two seats. And that kills it for me. This is a vehicle for rich people. And taxi drivers will have a field day with them.
What about getting out in emergency? What about stopping the car if my handset's display breaks when I am inside? Is there a button inside which I can press to open both the doors? It should also have turn indicators, for human driver and wipers too, because even though it can drive through the rain autonomously, people sitting inside should be able to see outside when it's raining. How about throwing some HDR Capable OLED Screens in there, with some Dolby Atmos/Dolby Vision?
@@mateo8090 Oh, I guess I didn't see anything then 🤣. Plus ummmm yes, Atmos is good. But they should go for DoVi also. Great if they've done that too. I don't think that display's OLED though. MiniLED would also be sufficient, especially with blackened glasses all around.
As a citizen of Croatia, I would most sincerely like the success of this project. Mate Rimac could be in the rank of Nikola Tesla, but I personally doubt that this story will take a completely different course. Many times richer, more technologically advanced countries have spent billions of dollars, they do not show the final solutions of autonomous vehicles. When analyze the current level of development of cameras and sensors for detection and it is impossible for AI to make 100% correct decisions in real conditions of vehicle use. It is nice to dream, but the current state of technology and electronics has limits that limit autonomous application. The time ahead will prove that .With this promotion of its autonomous vehicle, Rimac only wanted to justify the invested funds from shareholders and the EU. The years ahead will tell if I'm wrong.!!!
smartphones and internet seemed 20 years ago like a crazy dream, with exponential development of ai and quantum computing will figure that out sooner that later

The car design is fine, my question is they have no real world driving data??? Because of that, I assume it will operate within a tight tolerance of where you can go. It’s good to see others trying but I think the march of 9’s will make it difficult for them once operating as others are finding out. Tesla’s general AI solution I think will win in the end.
Yes they will map the area of some large city and taxi will drive only in that area
Rimac collaborates with Alphabet (Google) which has the third largest AI capacity in the US, Tesla's Dojo is not even on the top 10 list in the US, no need to worry.
Tesla doesn't have AGI you know that right?
@@BranislavB-hx9zy Tesla has NVIDIA chips though and over 6 million vehicles collecting real world data which is required for it to work in the first place.
In order to catch up you'll need to build more factories than Tesla and at bare minimum be equally efficient in each factory at producing vehicles and on top of that you'll need the capital and expertise for those factories. After this you'll need approximately $250B in order to build those vehicles and lots of human workers & automation.
After this you'll need to find +6m people willing to buy those vehicles and hope you can sell them at a profit.
After this you'll need them to actively drive around (more than Tesla) in order to catch up to their amount of data.
After this you'll need to be able to process the data faster than Tesla & actually take advantage of that data correctly and so on.
Nobody is catching up, it's game over.

Guys, guys,guys,listen, what about a some sort of electric vehicle that going to drive around city and you could jump on it on special places, sit or stand and it’s like a room and can pick up a ton of people so you don’t need a ton of separate vehicles, what an idea huh
Vehicles for 1 to 2 people are actually more efficient at delivering people to their individual destinations. There certainly will be autonomous busses in the future once this is scalable.

Concept's are easy. It looks expensive to produce for something that is meant to be a utility where people want to pay the lowest price to go a short distance in the city, typically.
What we need is better buses and subways. Then we wouldn’t need so many cars and taxis. I think limiting it to 2 passengers is a mistake. People go out at night with a group of friends, families travel to the airport or train station or to grandma’s house. 3 passengers makes more sense. But they have the data so we’ll see. In America this is a tough sell other than NYC and maybe LA and Chicago.

Its a nice car but no one have a full autonomus car. Just needed this to say, that means autonomy level 5 and no one had that at this point, so why do you say its fully autonomu?s

Not making larger ones seems like a mistake. having to pay 2 or 3 taxis when you could go with one will get expensive fast. They don't have make a lot of them, just a few per fleet is enough.
This is what I'm waiting for. I don't like dealing with other drivers. No more insurance, maintenance, etc. That would save thousands of dollars each year. I like looking for new ways to cut my expenses down.
Bravo, man!
The Chinese has autonomous self driving cars on the road. Hope this company release the product as soon as possible before the Chinese copy their designs
Again very limited areas in a few cities and also using expensive LIDAR and have to map the city streets and constantly renew mapping. Tesla will have to make some adjustments for driving in China but once implemented the Tesla FSD cars will be able to drive anywhere on main roads. The same for setting up in Europe. China and Rimac will only be limited to major cities and large freeways connecting them. They won´t work in towns or villages.
I assume you have not seen 100s of crash videos there, what they have is very primitive and limited self driving tehnology.
what about their actuall autonomous tech? that is the key technology here
Ey that interviewer is not the brightest dude under the sun to do this with rimarc smart guys
I love this design.
But the hard part is actually getting a car to drive itself, which, no one has achieved yet. Tesla is nearly there, but that took 6m vehicles worth of driving data , mutli billions and 10 years.
Tesla isn't even close. Waymo is MUCH closer, they seem to still fall victim to occasional edge-cases. FSD is a con, full-stop.
The Teslae are reasonable at it, but having tried full self drive a few times in a friends Model 3 last month, it's not ready for prime time. As a take-over for a long trip on the freeway or interstate - likely. Navigating a busy downtown or dealing with roundabouts, terrifying.
Achieving it is not the only issue. In the US public transportation is only so popular and there are plenty of options already. I just don't see more people using public transportation just because there is no driver. It's still shared with others and it's not waiting for you to make a quick get away when needed. Our use of cars is not just pre planned trips from one location to another. Sometimes we just "go for a drive", we see what's new and stop anytime we see something interesting. There have been many estimates about how much the market is worth and I don't think any of them are close to reality and might even be based on getting 100% of the market with no competition. There is no way to make back the money spent on these things.
@frankcoffey Robotaxis will be on par with public transport costs, but you now also have your own space, no need to wait in long queues for trains/busses etc. You can relax, stretch out, watch a movie/do work etc. That's a huge value add for the consumer
@@louisdude1 I still don't think that's new customers. It's just a slice of the pie of people that will consider public transportation at all. We shall see what that's worth but I think it's going to be a tiny fraction of what has been estimated.
This is the biggest thing since the horse gave way to the car. I'm a Tesla shareholder and I find this super exciting [yes, I know this will be a rival]. Tesla will have to go some with its Robotaxi to be this good. This has been properly thought out. I'm assuming the automotive driving technology will succeed, because given enough time, realistic goals usually are, and FSD isn't pie-in-the-sky, despite what people with little imagination and knowledge might say. Yes, I'll hail one of these around about the time I either buy my next BEV or I keep the cash.
Let’s see the production hell. Prototypes are easy!
The factory for it is built, the showcase city and the country are fully in it. Its not the car, its not legal restrictions, those things won't run high speed on high ways its the business case behind it. Rimac, will again use this as a show case and make money with the tech behind it.
Hope he sees this, champ.

One thing that seems very strange to me is that Tesla (and other small start-ups) were working on "Robo-taxi" - independent unmanned vehicle that would serve as taxi as a form of transportation.
Yes, excitement is there, innovation and all that... but stop and think for a moment: WHY? WHY are they going that route, investing ton of money to get that concept into reality...
They must know something we do not know - and that is, discontinuance of a today's car/transportation vehicles and into gazillion robo-taxis that would serve you to offer transportation where you want to go... That is where Bugatti apparently knows something as well aligning to the Tesla and other small start-ups... how will their investment pay off? They get this manufactured, and cities subscribe and order thousands of these for their metrolpolitan and suburb residential areas?
Bottom line - I like the innovation, but I do not like that progressive modernization that is very coy and very manipulative of "nothing wrong to see here"...
You tell me, if I am wrong, I am wrong, but there is no other logical reason they would throw millions into this...
Thats nice, did you write any self driving software?
they are all complete jokes except Tesla and Rimac which actually rock at software
@@JohnSmith-pn2vlinclude tesla in the clown section (like a joke, but not funny)
It really is the elephant in the room and quite disappointing that they didn't press the issue. That said, what they are doing here really seems to be asking for Waymo to license their software stack, which might in fact not be a bad bet given how Google (Android, etc) have operated in the past. Conversely, they might be trying to sell the physical cars to Waymo itself, which has seemingly given up on developing its own car in favor of partnerships (Jaguar i-Pace being the current test bed of choice). Rimac really made its name as a supplier to others so the fact that there could be a lot more to this iceberg than we can see makes a lot of sense, especially if they are deep in talks.
The autonomous driving is done by Mobileye. Rimac Technology does, as far as I know, all of their infotainments, applications and software on the Controller Area Network (CAN) level themselves, so it will likely be the case with Verne as well.
@@YourD3estinY Good catch. Another big OEM provider, although I wonder how their full autonomy software will stack up to Waymo. There is a big difference between driver assistance and full autonomy and they seem pretty untested on the latter.
Doesn't sound ready to take on Tesla. Tesla Robotaxi is designed to be significantly cheaper. I wish Rimac all the luck, and I think this will do well in limited markets/volume. But it won't touch Tesla on cost/price, or global scale.
As someone who works in the autonomous car industry. I've been in a total of 3 different driverless cars on public roads. It takes a lot of engineers to write code for these cars.
Code based systems don’t work at scale.
Tesla ditched heuristic code for AI based learning.
@@carsonj1 It still requires a lot of engineers.
@@OneManOnFire Not to mention capital, which Rimac being a tiny company doesn't have. Seems like a desperate attempt to get some funding because the company is going under.

Rimac has essentially nothing in these fields and you can see that where they have offloaded the whole autonomous part of the project to MobileEye. MobelEye is going to fail at autonomous, they are using the wrong approach.
So Rimac has nothing here but a concept on how a RoboTaxi system may work. That is the easy part, trivial even.
2026 for trial........hahaha......Tesla make anouncement on 08.08.24. Top Gear had been do a lot and I mean a lot advertising for Rimac lately....LOL
"Where's the sofware Lebowski?!"
In Israel.
Concept of robotaxi is interesting and could have potential in the future, but problem are people who will ride the taxi, they are the one who will deteriorate cars faster and car could got nasty. Therefore i think this type of taxi should be very expensive, because there is less chance that person who can afford it will be some average drunk joe that will puke all over the car and give it some scratches. And starting this in Zagreb is good starting point to prove if I am right or wrong.
I can just imagine everyone racing to use the robotaxi because some celebrity released an album.
If only Rimac had agi software so the car could drive itself ... hmmm, I wonder if there's a company that's spent a decade developing just that and a fleet of millions that provides the data to train it. Long game thinking required.
Love your style, it's like a burst of creativity in every video!
The car is good but the need for very expensive hardware (Lidar) makes it not scalable and I'm assuming they will need to map the roads for it to drive on so it is ringfenced like Waymo.

prototypes are easy. production is hard. let's see how this goes. until they start mass manufacturing this, it's all vapourware.
Don't underestimate Mate Rimac. Also, don't overestimate Elon and his many failed ideas like the Hyperloop, Boring Company, stainless steel rocket and pointless 44 Bn$ acquisition of Twitter ;-)
This company currently manufactures 150 units per year. Not sure if they’ll even be able to scale an AV, especially an electric AV. Anyone can build a few very expensive cars, but not many can scale these at an affordable price. I say if they can scale these at 20-30k each, then they may have a shot, but something tells me the LiDAR is going to be very expensive haha
amazing,future is here

Dead men walking. Nice eye candy. Ask these people to put their money where their mouths are and actually demonstrate how well their FSD works - They have nothing! Tesla is the only company with proven and working FSD AI technology which has been in development since 2020 through its FSD Beta program, using 8 HD cameras and no lidar. The AI software uses nural-net technology which learns through driver training, not hard coding. This requires vast amounts of mainframe computing power and hardware which nobody else currently has. Rimac may produce the vehicle but may have to license the FSD compute from Tesla if available.
Jealousy. Again.
Love that they do it before Musk but we need more public transport not more cars, you can’t have so many cars inside cities
so more buses in cities? why not a small car that can be parked away until needed? instead of buses doing routes all day long and having people having to walk from every destination. why can't someone just have their own taxi so to speak? i think it's a much better idea than a bus. smaller vehicle, don't have a bus with 3 or 4 people inside waiting around until their stop.

Many times richer, more technologically advanced countries have spent billions of dollars, they do not show the final solutions of autonomous vehicles. When analyze the current level of development of cameras and sensors for detection and it is impossible for AI to make 100% correct decisions in real conditions of vehicle use. It is nice to dream, but the current state of technology and electronics has limits that limit autonomous application. The time ahead will prove that .With this promotion of its autonomous vehicle, Rimac only wanted to justify the invested funds from shareholders and the EU. The years ahead will tell if I'm wrong.!!!
