Germany’s renowned Europa-Park has announced the official name of its 14th roller coaster as “Voltron Nevera powered by Rimac,” situated within the captivating backdrop of the park’s latest Croatia-themed section. This extraordinary roller coaster, a creation by Mack Rides, serves as a tribute to the pioneering work of Nikola Tesla in electricity, and its nomenclature takes inspiration from Mate Rimac, the esteemed CEO of Rimac Automobili, a well-regarded Croatian automotive manufacturer renowned for its groundbreaking Rimac Nevera electric sports car.

With an impressive length of 1,385 meters, the Voltron Nevera coaster claims distinction as Europe’s lengthiest multi-launch roller coaster.
