Do you like the Koenigsegg Agera RS? Don't look for one, the entire production is already sold out

Agera RS 3

The Koenigsegg Agera RS has been one of the most eye-catching models and one of the most anticipated launches of last year.

It was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2015, and today we know that, just 10 months later, the entire production run has already sold out.

The Agera RS was presented at last year’s Swiss show with the aim of becoming one of the global benchmarks in the supercar segment. Credit must be given to Koenigsegg, since over the last few years its technology has improved exponentially, allowing it to bring to market products such as the one we are discussing in this article.

Supercharged V8 engine, a fully lightweight construction with advanced materials, plenty of carbon fibre, rear-wheel drive and more than 1000 CV of power. Throw all these ingredients into the shaker, mix well, add a pinch of Swedish spice, and… the result is 25 units of the so-called Agera RS, one of the most powerful and high-performance vehicles ever created by the small Swedish manufacturer.

In the words of the owner and founder of the brand, Christian von Koenigsegg, “the Agera RS programme has been a complete success, and the whole company feels more than proud.” No wonder. The Agera RS has become the Koenigsegg with the fastest sales in the brand’s history. It is true that production has been very limited, just 25 units, but it is also true that a price above one and a half million euros does not bring it within reach of just any budget.

Agera RS 2

The performance of the Agera RS is truly outrageous. It is capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds, with a top speed of over 400 km/h. Above all, the aerodynamic work stands out, which is very important for stability when we are talking about a beast of 1160 CV. Its complex active rear wing is capable of generating 400 kg of downforce at 250 km/h, which represents one of the best figures in the automotive landscape for road cars. Arguably -and without the “arguably”- without these add-ons the Agera RS would take off at certain speeds.
