Koenigsegg puts one in the record books
Koenigsegg has received Official Guinness approval for its 0-300-0 km/h record time.

On the 2nd of September 2011 at 12.08 pm a standard Koenigsegg Agera R took several new production car world records at the Koenigsegg proving ground in Ängelholm, Sweden.

The 0-300-0 km/h time of only 21.19 sec truly show the Agera Rs phenomenal stability, acceleration and braking performance – and that presently its performance is in a league of its own.

Christian von Koenigsegg was very pleased that the Agera R received this acknowledgement from Guinness and said:

“We had high hopes when we set out to do this record. But the end result was truly astonishing. This is Koenigsegg ́s 4th Guinness World Record since 2003 and it show our continued commitment to build Hypercars that deliver beyond expectations.”

Holy shit!!!!!!

 

I want!!!!

 

Wow that is impressive. It did it so effortlessly too.

 

0-200mph in four seconds less than a Veyron.

 

Red suits this car oddly well

 

Well let me correct myself. That is 4.5s quicker than the Super Sport, and 6.5s faster than the standard Veyron. (22.2s and 24.2s respectively)

 

We forgive you. haha

Wow that is incredibly fast. I was a fan since they first came out with the first model. love the doors

 

0-200-0 is faster than veyrons (both) 0-200.
