Koenigsegg One:1 development unit up for sale at $6 million

Today, the Koenigsegg One:1 is arguably the most formidable alternative to the all-powerful Veyron.

A genuine collector’s piece with an astronomical valuation, it will go down in history as one of the most powerful Swedish vehicles in the world, and it can now be acquired for the modest sum of $6 million.

Today we received news that the luxury dealership SuperVettura is putting up for sale a unit of the Koenigsegg One:1, at an estimated price of around $6 million. However, this is not a “standard” unit, as it is one of the development units used by the brand to bring the final product to light.

We know its chassis number is #7106, and that it has undergone numerous and varied tests throughout its life. In fact, this particular unit will be sold with a mileage of around 100,000 km, which almost certainly makes it the highest-mileage One:1 to date.

Koenigsegg used this unit to develop numerous systems and technical and mechanical innovations that later went into production, such as variable-geometry turbocharging, 3D-printed titanium, and active aerodynamics at both the rear and front of the vehicle.

The Koenigsegg One:1 is the most powerful vehicle from the firm, and it has a characteristic that makes it truly unique compared to its rivals: as its name suggests, it has a power-to-weight ratio of 1:1. The performance figures are, of course, astronomical. It is capable of reaching a top speed of 454 km/h, completing the 0-300 km/h sprint in just 11.9 seconds.

It is powered by a 5.0 V8 engine producing no less than 1360 CV and 1370 Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox that sends all the power to the rear wheels.
