Koenigsegg has recently unveiled the brutal Agera R at the Geneva Show.

The hyper car is powered by a 5.0 liter twin-turbo V8 with blistering 1115PS (820 kW) at 6900RPM and the red line is a bit after that – 7250RPM. The maximum torque is 1200Nm (885 lb-ft) at 4100RPM, but over 1000Nm is available from 2700 to 6170RPM. 0 to 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds, to 200 km/h in 7.5 seconds.

A really hard discipline 0 to 200 and back to stand still is done in just 12.7 seconds. The brakes are so hard, that when you press them to the metal, you will have the feeling that your face will be taken off. The breaking distance from 100 km/h to stand still is 30.5m.

One of the most interesting about the car is the weight-to-power ratio: 1.19 kg/hp. The car has a curb weight of 1435 kg and with over a thousand horsepower, it is a real adventure to drive it.

Agera R has special Vortex Generating Rim (VGR) wheels wrapped in Michelin tires, which are specially developed for the hyper car and can hold a speeds up to 419 km/h (260 mph).
