Koenigsegg Boss Explains Agera R’s Engine

Amongst all the exciting stuff you find in a Koenigsegg Agera R, its engine is the most fascinating bit of them all. It is incredible how a tiny auto maker from Sweden is capable of creating such an amazing piece of kit. The highly sophisticated 5. liter V8 engine has earned the auto a couple of globe records so far. It’s been updated for new model, shown at the Geneva Motor Show, and dependent on the sort of fuel you put in it, it makes between 940 to 1140 hp.

Now, clearly the best man to try and explain what this jewel of an engine is all about, is the man who came up with it in the first location. So let’s hand more than to Christian von Koenigsegg himself as he explains particulars of the new V8.
