Koenigsegg are pretty sure that the Agera R would be faster than the Pagani Huayra, McLaren P1 and Ferrari LaFerrari, on the test track at Top Gear.
The 2013 Agera R is the result of Koenigsegg’s endless pursuit of perfection. The 2013 model features new Aircore hollow carbon fiber wheels, upgraded power and enhanced aerodynamics. The car has an incredible top speed of approximately 273mph. Apparently the all new Agera can put out 1,140 HP of a 5.0-liter V8 engine and push the car to 200 mph in only 17.68 seconds and stop 200-0 mph in 7.28 sec.
Power is transmitted to the rear wheels with a Dual-Clutch 7 speeds transmisiion. The Agera R is the only roadster Hypercar with a detachable and stowable hardtop, thereby offering the best of two worlds. This, in combination with 120 litres of luggage space, truly combines extreme performance with everyday usability.
The Koenigsegg Agera R is available in left or right hand drive. Base price is $1,611,000. We’ll wait and see the top gear show and see whether they right.
