In the case of the R-version of the V8 twin-turbo petrol engine with five liters of huge 1115 hp is pushed. The maximum torque of 1,200 Nm is reached at 4,100 rpm and is available in a 3300 rpm continuous area. In 2.9 seconds it goes from zero to 100 km / h, after 7.5 seconds and reaches 200 km / after 12.7 seconds the number is 300 on the speedometer. Theoretically, according to Koenigsegg a top speed of 440 km / h is possible, however the Agera models at 375 km / h electronically limited.
