When the name "Koenigsegg" is mentioned, it is difficult to imagine
a hypercar world without the Swedish hypercars that go along with
it. Starting from humble beginnings with Christian von Koenigsegg
in 1994, the hypercar manufacturer has now blossomed into a
world-record setter and technological powerhouse that has resulted
in many iconic performance cars built in limited numbers. From
early beginnings with the CC8S, to the world-record setting Agera
RS and the modern-day Jesko, Koenigsegg has always been known to
push the envelope in building some of the most engaging and brutal
performance cars to ever touch asphalt, with many of their cars
being fully homologated for the U.S. market despite their company
size and production. Each car is hand built in their factory in
Sweden, with a total of less than 300 cars built over the course of
their 32 year span since commencing operations.
The Koenigsegg Agera RS was the resulting continual development of
the Agera S and Agera R, and the brutal One:1. First revealed in
2015 at the Geneva Motor Show, the Agera RS took some of the best
parts of each iteration and combined them into one unified package.
Utilizing the same carbon fiber monocoque structure with aluminum
honeycomb, additional improvements lead to an increase in downforce
to 450kg at 250km/h with active aerodynamics. The removable carbon
fiber roof is storable in the front trunk when not in use, allowing
the duality of a coupe or open top as needed. The aggressive
aerodynamics package was lifted from the One:1, and other
lightweighting additions were carried out that lead to Koenigsegg
coining that the Agera RS was "the ultimate track tool" due to its
track-optimized technologies. With only 25 examples built, it is an
extremely limited production and exceedingly rare.
One of the most coveted upgrades available to the Agera RS was the
Megawatt package, increasing the horsepower from the standard 1,160
horsepower from its Koenigsegg-designed 5.0L twin-turbo V8 engine,
up to 1,341 horsepower, a reportedly $245,500 upgrade option. The
Agera RS was the vehicle that took the world record for a verified
277.9 miles per hour in 2017, cementing Koenigsegg as the fastest
hypercar manufacturer of all time. In a later record, a Koenigsegg
Agera RS completed a 0-400-0 km/h run (0-248-0 miles per hour) in
just 33.29 seconds! Carryover features such as full carbon
bodywork, Koenigsegg's own hollowcore carbon fiber wheels, a
7-speed dual clutch transmission, Koenigsegg's patented Triplex
suspension for improved ride quality with ultimate handling at high
speeds, and more.
This 2018 Koenigsegg Agera RS is one of 25 examples built, and #24

The Agera RS was first delivered to America in 2018. Upon arriving
at Canepa, the Agera RS had accumulated 3,827 miles since delivery,
working out to be just 478 miles per year. With $485,000 in
Koenigsegg factory options, including the 1 Megawatt power upgrade,
and the only Agera RS currently available in the United States,
it's easy to see why this Agera RS is such a rarity. Hypercar
performance, world-record setting pedigree, all from a company
started just 34 years ago in Sweden. The Koenigsegg Agera RS is
still an ultimate expression of performance, ready to be enjoyed
and driven the way it was designed to be.
