The Regera was created as a luxury Megacar alternative to Koenigsegg’s traditional extreme lightweight race-like road cars. Even though the One:1 and the Agera RS have surprising levels of practicality, creature comforts and features, their primary focus is, and has always been, to be the overall fastest cars on the planet – around a racetrack or elsewhere. Regera is Swedish for “to Reign” – a suitable name for a machine that offers a never seen before combination of power, responsiveness and luxury.
The heart and soul of every Koenigsegg is its Internal Combustion Engine. The engine 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. The difference to the Agera engine is that, given the electric propulsion of the Direct Drive system, the combined output is way over 1500 Hp and over 2000 Nm torque.
The Regera is the first car in the world that operates all body closures completely automatically. The spectacle to open and close the entire car simultaneously from the remote or smartphone, truly turns the Regera into a transformer.
The Regera will be handcrafted in only 80 examples, a number that symbolizes “the principle of domination, control and achievement in Pythagorean Numerology”.
