Koenigsegg Agera R

LP670-4 SV · Feb 28, 2011

its going to offically unvield at Geneva and the stats are well........ :nervous:

I mean 1,115 hp and 885 lb-ft of torque O_o i mean this is asking for accidents, there putting in 300 MORE hp over the already violent, mean, cruel, brutal violent CCX and keeping the RWD.......Stiggy will need to double up on boxers when he goes for a blast in this thing

Honestly, it's only that much more [motions with fingers] insane than the CCX-R. Were you really expecting the guys at Koenigsegg to NOT milk the new V8 for all that it's worth?

I foresee lots of wheel spinning (perhaps all the way through 4th), lots of heavy oversteering, and a huge ass wing.

Yeah i can see Clarkson making this his new substitue for smoking , and him screaming about POWER and SPEED and how the cars torque powers the continental plate movements

Looking good but honestly I don't get. Why do cars have to have such an amount of power, i.e. torque and HP?

You can't use the power of such supercars without getting speeding tickets, or endangering other people.

Tested for speeds up to 300 kph. All we need now is a towbar and were good to go on a caravan vacation.

You can't use the power of a Fiesta 1.1L without getting speeding tickets and endangering people either.

Because those power and torgue figures help to sell it at insane prices. Plus, bragging rights.

The most insane cars come from Sweden.

zedextreme8177 · Feb 28, 2011

I'd like to see how it compares to the Veyron SS in terms of top speed.

And that engine sound from the V8 :drool:

so, it's gonna be a burnout machine like the SSC Ultimate Aero?

yeah pretty much, just pure brumilian fury :scared:

Quite so. There just isn't going to be anywhere to put all the power down without priming the rear treads until they're bald. It's either mind the speed and RPMs, or floor it and possibly go in every direction except the one you're pointing toward.

It's insanity and I absolutely adore it.

I need to change my pants! :drool:

Looks incredible, and the sound.............wow. :drool:

Don't you mean 'Brunelian' as in Isambard Kingdom Brunel, the Victorian engineer?

I don't think the Bugatti will be beaten by anything for very long. As soon as another company makes the 'world's fastest production car' VW will be there with another. I'm looking forward to the Veyron's succesor. You never know the Bentley 'Hunanderies' (spelling) may be resurected!

Dan_ · Mar 6, 2011

In all honesty, it looks almost exactly the same as the CCX, they just added some power and bad looking styling changes. At the end of the day, it is just a CCX "SV", swan song edition.

Philly · Mar 6, 2011

I wonder just how new this car is. I also see a lot of similarities to the CCX. Is this just s restyled and renamed version of the exact same car?

There is no doubt in my mind that this car will be epic but nothing Victorian about it. I believe clarkson used that phrase about the Ascari A10.

Swedish journalist getting a bit overwhelmed when testing the Agera.

Even if you don't understand anything of what he is saying you still understand what he is feeling.

Top speed.

On basic shape, all Koenigseggs look pretty much the same. But, they've only gotten faster and scarier.

Philly · Apr 8, 2011

But this is Koenigsegg's second model. That would be like saying all the Zondas were the same shape, because they were the same car. Is this a new model or just another member of the CC_ line?

McLaren · Apr 8, 2011

This is the successor. The body will remain similar, but there's a lot of new tech. in the car. The CCX ran on a twin-supercharged 4.7 V8 whilst the Agera runs on a new twin turbocharged 5.0 V8.

Absolute Must - Have for this car ist the Thule Roof Box!

I was digging the Agera when I found out it was in Hot Pursuit 3... but then when I drove it, I switched back to the CCX.
