Say Hello To Koenigsegg's New 'One:1' Veyron Destroyer

Swedish Hypercar maker Koenigsegg has revealed details of its new Agera One:1 model, which will prove to be the world's fastest ever production car - by quite some margin.

The One:1 is likely to be powered by a heavily tuned version of the current 5.0-litre, twin-turbocharged V8 unit you'll find in the Agera, which produces 947bhp in standard guise. The Agera R model - which runs on biofuel - produces 1140bhp and is already a quicker car than the 1183bhp Veyron Vitesse, as you can see...

The new One:1, by contrast, will produce a heady 1400bhp and will weigh no more than 1400kg - hence it's name - thanks to extensive use of carbonfibre. Thanks to its 1000bhp per tonne power-to-weight figure, the One:1 will accelerate to 62mph in around 2.6sec and will max out at 280mph (450kph).

More interesting still is Koenigsegg's claims that the One:1 will hit 249mph in just 20 seconds.

No prices have been confirmed (we're guessing around £1.5m), but reports suggest that the six cars that will be built are already sold.
