In response to the enthusiastic view the Agera RS and the Regera received in the USA, a mind-blowing Swedish supercar will soon be made available stateside. Enter the Koenigsegg Agera XS ($TBA): “one of the most powerful, fully homologated, street legal production cars on American roads”.
Boasting an ideal power (1,160-hp) to weight (3,075 lbs) ratio, the supercar has active front & rear aerodynamics (check out that humonguous rear wing) creating a massive amount of downforce (990 lb at 155 mph) and prevent the missile from taking off. The 5-litre, twin-turbocharged V8 engine underneath is mated to a 7-speed paddle-shift transmission, with Koenigsegg’s rear differential stops, while suspension is provided by a front/rear hydraulic lifting system with active shock absorbers.
Inside, you get black alcantara with orange stitching, and all the modern electronic goodies you’d expect from a machine of this level: smart airbags, adjustable pedals & steering column, adjustable carbon sport seats, carbon ceramic brakes with Sport ABS, stability control, climate control, digital warning and information system, G sensor, tire monitoring system, and the list goes on. Wearing a flashy metallic orange and a carbon center strip, the Agera XS comes with a removable hardtop, so you can enjoy the ride at its fullness. Just make sure to leave your toupee at home.
