Design – Exterior & Interior

With previous Koenigsegg production models being a sign, the Regera virtually looks like a restyled Agera, which itself is a restyled variation of the CC8S/CCR/CCX and then CCXR that went before it. That said, the brand-new design sporting activities enough style modifications to be worthy of the name and then propulsion changes, although a lot of its style attributes are nearly the same to its predecessors.

The front features a set of new fronts lights, a much deeper wind resistant front splitter for even more downforce as well as less nuisance, as well as some differently shaped air consumption. 3 NACA-like air shaft have actually been matched on the front hood, right under the windshield.

The side profile looks quasi-identical with other Koenigsegg models, with the trademarked “dihedral synchro-helix actuation” doors being retained too. On the other hand, the back is rather different compared to its predecessors, with a pair of restyled LED taillights going along with an enhanced the shape of rear wing that is hydraulically actuated. Another Koenigsegg trademark that hasn’t been preserved is the solitary, big, main exhaust splitting the diffuser, since the Regera seems to include two exhaust exits.

A variety of additional aerodynamic winglets and then side splitters tested on the One:1 have actually found their method over the Regera, along with a changed version of Koenigsegg’s exclusive carbon-fiber wheels. Last, but definitely not least, the energy filler cap is come with by an electrical outlet, while the side air intakes have been enhanced the shape of too. The package is completed by new rear-view mirrors as well as a bunch of extra air consumption as well as outlets possibly used to cool down the electric battery and then electric motors.

Interior details

Just like some of the exterior information, I really did not anticipate to locate an all-new cockpit inside the Regera, yet Koenigsegg surprised every person by finally presenting a redesigned facility console. Entrance is still made through the great doors, which the Swedish carmaker insists on calling by their main name on every event, while the seats as well as almost every touchable surface is engulfed in leather, Alcantara and then carbon fiber.

A few touches of machined aluminum on the brand-new center console and also air conditioning vents make for a classier environment as compared to various other Koenigseggs, although the flat-bottomed steering wheel and then LCD-based instrument cluster resemble the ones from the Agera, only with better clothing.

The Engine range

Providing dual-mode inspiration for the Regera is a bespoke variation of Koenigsegg’s very own 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 tuned to make 1,084 horse power along with a trio of electrical motors – one between the crankshaft and also the Koenigsegg Direct Drive (KDD) transmission that changes a traditional gearbox and one at each rear wheel to add additional muscular tissue in addition to torque-vectoring – that tally up one more 690.

That combo also develops a collective 1,475 lb-ft of torque, sufficient to send the 3,590-pound Regera blitzing from 0-249 mph in less than 20 seconds. Situated in a carbon-aramid main tunnel, the Regera’s 620V/9.3 kWh liquid-cooled lithium battery pack can be renewed on the fly through regenerative stopping or through a Level II charger making use of the port concealed behind its back badge.

2016 Koenigsegg Regera Price & Release date

Merely 80 Regeras will certainly be generated, each one influencing a beginning price of $1,890,000 before any sort of costs or taxes. And then there’s this: The Regera will certainly be offered in the U.S. as a fully federally certified model, possibly early following year.
