Germany’s Europa-Park has unveiled the finished train for its 14th roller coaster, Voltron Nevera powered by Rimac, set to open this year.
In an Instagram post, Europa-Park said the train arrived at the park last week from sister company Mack Rides, which designed and built Voltron Nevera.
Under construction in Europa-Park’s new Croatia-themed area, Voltron Nevera will be the longest multi-launch coaster in Europe at 1,385 metres. In addition, the ride’s 105-degree launch is the steepest in the world.
The new coaster takes it name from Mate Rimac, founder and CEO of Rimac Automobili, a Croatian automotive manufacturer, as well as the company’s Rimac Nevera electric sports car.
Michael Mack said the collaboration with Rimac is “a perfect match”. He added: “We’re united by our entrepreneurial spirit, our passion for acceleration and our special relationship with Croatia.”
“The history of the Mack family is very fascinating to me,” said Rimac.

“This is where visionaries and top engineers meet, both striving to be the best in their field. For me, it is an honour that Germany’s largest theme park will not only be able to show our innovations, but also present the rich history and culture of Croatia,” he added.
During the ride experience, guests will be immersed in Serbian-American inventor and engineer Nikola Tesla’s electricity experiments.
Riders will also enjoy several LSM launch tracks with speeds of 55.9 mph, a maximum height of 106.6 feet, a unique turntable element, and seven inversions.
