The Koenigsegg Agera R will make its global debut in 2011 Geneva auto show, it was the Speed Racer-inspired paint scheme and the packing so much power. Koenigsegg Agera R car shown in Geneva is a very special customer.
Koenigsegg Agera R comes equipped with a special roof section featuring an integrated Thule carbonfibre ski-box containing two pairs of Koenigsegg skis. It has some pretty-high quality materials and the Agera R certainly doesn’t disappoint. With a carbon fiber monocoque serving as its skeleton, the Agera R is is equipped with Vortex Generating Rim (VGR) wheels. The design of the spokes generate a turbine effect which help in creating some downforce.
It was just a year ago when Koenigsegg debuted the Agera in Geneva packing a twin-turbo 4.7-liter V8 with 910 PS (669 kW / 898 hp) and 1100 Nm (811 lb-ft) of torque. With performance specs such as 0-100 km/h in 3.1 seconds, top speed of 390+ km/h (245+ mph) it certainly lands itself firmly in the hypercar category.
2011 oenigsegg Agera R is “slightly” improved, It was powered by a larger 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 producing an earth moving 1115 PS of torque. A pretty astonishing figure but one crucial detail in achieving that number is the fuel. Fill it up with 95-octane fuel and the engine’s potential is limited to 940 PS (927 bhp / 691 kW) and 1100 Nm (811 lb-ft) torque while full potential is only unleashed with the use of E85 biofuel.
No performance specs have been released, Koenigsegg is keen to mention the Agera R Special Michelin tires were developed specifically for the Agera R and hold a speed rating of up to 260 mph (419 km/h), the highest-speed-rated tires in the world, according to Koenigsegg.Labels: fast car, Koenigsegg, Koenigsegg Agera, Koenigsegg Agera R, Turbo Car

Koenigsegg Agera R: 5000 cc engine that is able to make this car spewing power up to 1100 bhp.
Supercar manufacturer Koenigsegg featuring the latest face of Agera R at the Geneva Motor Show auto show that will open this week. This car is like a scary monster.
V8 engine with twin-turbo 5000 cc capacity of the hidden body capable of making this car spewing power up to 1100 bhp with peak torque of 885 lb-ft reach.
Power can be achieved when the Koenigsegg Agera R using gasoline biofuel E85. Because when using regular gasoline, energy Koenigsegg Agera R will drop down to number 972 bhp and 811 lb-ft of torque.
Still, it became a fearsome force. Engine mated to a dual-clutch gearbox is also capable of accelerating seven melesatkan Koenigsegg Agera R to the speed of 100 km per hour in just about 3 seconds, and jump quickly to a top speed of 402 km per hour.
Cars that have a sense of 'act' is a body of carbon fiber material that makes its weight so light with a roof that can be folded.
Koenigsegg Agera R Design body was made in such a way that this car aerodynamics become increasingly high. Koenigsegg foot rim seconded Agera R Vortex Generating Rim (VGR) with high performance tires are then made Koenigsegg look Agera R became more and more sporty.
Tire encircling the leg Koenigsegg Agera R is able to withstand friction up to speed 418 km per hour and according to Koenigsegg is a tire that has the highest specification at this time.
