2011 Koenigsegg Agera R

2011 Koenigsegg Agera R

The Koenigsegg Agera is the best-performing Koenigsegg super car ever. Not anymore, at least since the Agera R was unveiled in the 2011 Geneva
Car Show.
The Royal Family of Oman knew that ahead of time, only because they got one even before Agera R made its world debut in Geneva.
The Agera R uses a skeleton made of carbon fiber monocoque. It is very strong and lightweight. It also comes with VGR wheels that have spokes serving as turbine vanes which helps maximize the overall downward force generated by the sports car. The car in general is made up of very high quality materials befitting a car of its stature. The car is expected to cost somewhere in the vicinity of $1.6 million.
The Agera R features a 5-liter V8 powerful engine producing a mind-boggling 1,115 hp, much more powerful than the 910 hp engine of Agera. It also utilizes a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. Imagine what happens when it unleashes all that power on the track.
The Agera R is being touted as the super car that can finally dethrone the Veyron Super Sport as the fastest production car in the planet. This is in spite of the fact that its engine is 100 hp less powerful than the Super Sport. This is because the Agera R is much lighter.
