As much as we hate to say it, the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport might have
outlived its glory days, since the upcoming Geneva Motor Show 2014 is
set to host the unveiling of the Koenigsegg One:1 – a technological
marvel of immense power. The name of this Swedish beast was chosen
cleverly for a simple reason: the car in question will feature 1
horsepower for every kilogram or 2.2 pounds of weight.
Consequently, simple math dictates that the new Koenigsegg will boast
no less than 1340 horsepower, since it will weigh no less than 1,340
kilograms or 2,954 pounds. Even though it is based on the renowned Agera
model, the One:1 is a different car by all intents and purposes. Its
new rear wing, for example, is significantly more massive than that of
the Agera, and it needed to be quite large in order to ensure enough
downforce at mind-boggling speeds. Speaking of speed, the Koenigsegg
One:1 is believed to flaunt a top speed of over 449kmh (279mph), but its builders
also want it to break several sprinting records.
Limited to just 6 units with a price tag of $2 million each, this
extraordinary hyper car will definitely become one of the most famous in
the world soon enough.
