It may take
a while until we see more of Koenigsegg Regera trickling out the factory and
out onto the open road, in whatever colors their fortunate customers order them
in.
It's done up in a deep shade of Bordeaux-tinted
carbon-fiber with black and gold accents, and an interior done up in coffee
shades of brown and beige. It's an altogether more elegant approach to the
hybrid hypercar, as envisioned by Johan Bjurmar – the company's sales director
for continental Europe and Scandinavia.
Regardless of the color scheme, you're looking at a
groundbreaking supercar powered by a 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8, supplemented by
three electric motors (but no transmission to speak of) for a combined output
of over 1,500 horsepower – or 1.11 megawatts. Despite the extra weight of the
batteries, Koenigsegg pegs the curb weight at 1,628 kg to give it
almost the same power-to-weight ratio as the One:1.
