Let me start off by saying this car is my favorite car at Geneva this year. It is an absolute monster! If you haven't heard the One:1 stands for its crazy 1:1 power-to-weight ratio. This carbon fiber beast is the worlds first megacar (It is called a megacar because 1360 hp is one megawatt). It weighs 1,360 kilograms and produces 1,360 hp! This car is supposed to hit 280 mph and goes 0-400 km/h in approximately 20 seconds and it handles great. It has a 7-speed, ridiculously fast, dual-clutch and a paddle shifter with electronic differential. There is an aluminum 5.0L twin turbo V-8 with 1371 Nm of torque. The Koenigsegg is an aerodynamic marvel. It has a movable rear wing, hydraulic actuators, sculpted panels, and much more! It has everything another supercar could dream of. How they cut the weight down to 1360 kg is amazing and that is with a half tank of gas and all other liquids filled. How do they do it? Simple, everything on the car is carbon fiber, I mean everything. Wheels, interior chassis, monocoque, everything. The tech is also amazing. The car was built on a request to make an amazing track car that can be driven on he road. It has active suspension and variable ride height, along with GPS and an app to log your track times. There will be only 6 cars made, they will cost $2M and they are all sold out. Bottom line, this is an amazing car and I wish I had one.
