The Agera S, which means “to take action” in Swedish, is powered by a 5.0-liter biturbo V8 engine that pushes out a colossal output of 1,030-horsepower at 7,100rpm and 1,100Nm of torque at 4,100rpm. This massive power is then transferred to the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch paddleshift transmission, which is also the world’s first ever dual-clutch system designed for a single input shaft gearbox-combo.

The whole engine package, including the clutch, flywheel, dry sump system and Inconel manifold system (including two turbochargers) weighs just 197kg, while the transmission only weighs 81kg. With the body being made out of lightweight pre-impregnated carbon fiber/Kevlar, the whole car tips the scales at just 1,415kg.

The Triplex rear suspension system, invented by Christian von Koenigsegg himself, comprises of a shock absorber and spring connecting to the left and right rear wheels, allowing the spring and damping rates of the car to be lowered. This enables the car to have better ride comfort and great handling on rough and wet surfaces. Gripping the Agera S to the road are a set of Michelin Super Sport tires developed specifically for the car to withstand high Gs and the high speeds the car is capable of.
