Koenigsegg celebrats its 15th birthday this year with a blast as it uncovers the supercar 2011 Agera at next week’s 2010 Geneva Motor Show.
The new Agera will derive inspiration from the regular model CC but inject some transformative design elements and boost the power. The name Agera literally means “to act” in Swedish and was chose to symbolize the philosophy of Koenigsegg of going to the edge in terms of beefing their cars in terms of performance and design.
The designers of the new Koenigsegg Agera designed the front end of the car to be as wide as its rear to get better balance and decrease body roll when cornering. The supercar also gets new ventilated ceramic drills that are cross drilled. The carmaker also installed traction control technology that is capable of adapting automatically to different conditions of the road and styles of driving.
After reading the paragraphs above, you might still be wondering how much power does this Koenigsegg supercar has. The 2011 Agera roars a monstrous 910 horsepower and a torque of 811 pound feet. The figures are attributed to the added boost pressure and better breathing of the car. Rev the car from 2,680 u pto 6,100 rpm and you still get an excellent torque of 737 pound feet.
The new Agera gets a redesigned interior of the CC. The cozy interior makes use of Ghost Lights that illuminates the aluminum buttons via invisible nanotubes. The center is fabricated with carbon fiber. A single dial controls everything to give you control over music, timer, compass, power meters, G force measurements, and other basic functions.
The Agera that will take spotlight in Geneva will be a pre-production unit. Koenigsegg will spend the next six months to test and develop the supercar. The car manufacturer is also working with Michelin to come up with a unique tire design for the 2011 Agera. Story via Exotic Car News.
