Koenigsegg One:1 Revealed Ahead of Geneva Debut

The Koenigsegg One:1 is finally here and it's determined to become the world's fastest road legal car. And looking at the numbers, the Swedish "Mega car" has what it takes and maybe even more. The One:1 is powered by a 5.0-liter aluminum V8 engine producing 1,341 Hp and weights 1,341 Kg (2,956 pounds) which explains the name and which also explains why the 0 to 400 Km/h (248.5 mph) sprint is expected to take just 20 seconds. Top speed is expected to be more than 440 km/h (273 mph).

The car will make its debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month and only six units will be built.

Another stunning piece of carbon fiber has been put up for sale on jameslist.com. This time it's the very exclusive and very rare (so rare that it could cost you more than two McLaren race cars) Koenigsegg Agera X chassis #88.

The Swedish supercar is powered by a 5.0-Liter bi-turbo V8 producing 927 Hp and 110 Nm of torque. It weights just 1290 Kg (2843 pounds) and it'll do the 0 to 100 Km/h (62 mph) sprint in 3.1 seconds with a top speed of 398 Km/h (247 mph).

The car you see above have just completed 3250 kilometers (2019 miles). This matte black beast can be yours for €888,888! But we believe that if you have just 888 thousand Euros, they can deal with it since it still matches both the chassis and the license plate numbers... More pictures of the Swedish beauty in the gallery below.

Sweden's new beast

Until you'll be able to see Koenigsegg's latest supercar in the flesh in the upcoming Geneva Motor Show, the guys from GTspirit.com got their hands on these very first high quality renderings of the Swedish supercar. Apart from its front facia, the new supercar called "Agera" clearly reminds us of its predecessor, the CCX. But you can not really complain about that as the CCX (along with the Pagani Zonda) is one of those hypercars that make you wonder if it could even get better.

Maybe the more significant change is under the bonnet where now you can find the 4.7L Koenigsegg V8 from the CCX tuned to produce: 910 Hp. The Agera has a weight of 1284 Kg which allows it to have an astonishing weight to power ratio thanks to its ultralight carbon fiber chassis and bodywork. This will help the car provide endless acceleration until it hits 395km/h (245 mph) with 100 km/h (62 mph) coming right after 3.1 seconds. Frightening numbers which, judging by the performance of the Agera's predecessors, are all but overestimated.

Until we get more real world pictures of the Swedish beast check out the pictures below and don't forget to visit GTspirit for more details.
