The time it takes a vehicle to accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour (97 km/h or 27 m/s), often said as just "zero to sixty" or "nought to sixty", is a commonly used performance measure for automotive acceleration in the United States and the United Kingdom. In the rest of the world, 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62.1 mph) is used.
The Rimac Concept One, sometimes stylized as Concept_One, is a two-seat high-performance electric car designed and manufactured in Croatia by Rimac Automobili.With a total output of 913 kW (1,241 PS; 1,224 hp) and an acceleration time from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 2.5 seconds, [5] the Rimac Concept One was claimed to be the world's fastest accelerating electric vehicle in 2013.

Bernard was able to slow the car down to 50–60 mph (80–97 km/h) with the brakes, but was only able to bring the car to a complete stop after putting the car in neutral. [50] After this incident, Toyota conducted seven recalls related to unintended acceleration from September 2009 to March 2010.
Afterwards, the vehicles hit the first launch which accelerates from 0 to 20 miles per hour (32 km/h) in 1.2 seconds. It moves through an s-curve slope and makes a right turn and hit the second launch, accelerating from 22 miles per hour (35 km/h) to 30 miles per hour (48 km/h) in 1.5 seconds.
[68] [69] This enables a modern F1 car to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (0 to 97 km/h) in 1.8 seconds, and from 0 to 100 mph (0 to 161 km/h) in 2.6 seconds. [70] It has a power-to-weight ratio of 1,297 hp / t , which would theoretically allow the car to reach 100 km/h (62 mph) in less than a second. [ 71 ]

This allows the car to accelerate from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 6.6 seconds and on to its top speed of 200 km/h (120 mph). [34] The car uses an energy recuperation system which, on average, contributes 30% to the range. Recuperation can be achieved both when the driver releases the accelerator and when applying pressure to the brake pedal. [33]
