Yeah folks, holly macaroni! The ultimate race we were waiting for. We doubted that Bugatti will ever have strong opponent, worthy enough to challenge him and has the pleasure to race on the same track.
But this opponent is something different which will make you doubt in numbers, yeah, you will think that is something wrong with your eyes! So, the truth is, there’s nothing wrong with your eyes, and all those numbers that follow are real and proven.
Here they are, the Koenigsegg Agera R is powered by 5.0-liter V8 DOHC engine which through the 7-speed dual clutch transmission delivers 1.140hp and 1000Nm of torque, accelerates from 0 to 100km/h in just 2.8 seconds and hits amazing maximum speeds, 420+km/h. The car is ultra-light-weight, 1.340kg so the ratio is 1.19kg/hp! What else we need to add here to convince you who serious opponent has the Bugatti Veyron Vitesse!
So let’s see what the “old” Knight has to offer: 8.0-liter W16 (two V8 parallel bocks merged in one) that boost power of 1,200 hp and 1,106 lb-ft of torque. The acceleration is also crazy, from 0 to 62mph in just 2.4 seconds and the maximum speed is limited on 258mph for tires reason.
By the performance numbers we can see that the rivals are suiting one to another, so let’s give them a chance. On which one you place your bets?
