Koenigsegg Regera at Geneva – Video

 

The only car able to come close to Bugatti’s unbelievable Chiron is Koenigsegg’s hybrid Regera, which produces 1,500hp and goes from 0 to 60 in 2.8 seconds. It’s a legitimate automobile sculpture, crafted out of carbon fiber, aluminum, and titanium.

Koenigsegg Regera Specs:

The heart and soul of every Koenigsegg is its Internal Combustion Engine – the ICE. The ICE of the Regera follows the path of its siblings, based on the proven and extremely reliable Koenigsegg drysumped twin turbo, DOHC, 5.0 liter V8.

As before, the Koenigsegg V8 is the most downsized homologated production ICE in the world, with 220 Hp per liter engine (using regular pump gas). The compactness of the engine makes the Regera nimble, efficient and lightweight.

The difference to the Agera engine is that, given the electric propulsion of the Direct Drive system, we did not have to go as extreme on ICE power, as the combined output is way over 1500 Hp and over 2000 Nm torque, anyway. Given this we could install even smaller, faster spooling turbos on the Regera, further enhancing the ICE drivability and response.
