Koenigsegg has humiliated Bugatti

Recently we wrote that the Swedish Koenigsegg challenged Bugatti Chiron. The essence of the dispute - acceleration to 400 km/h and a complete stop. Who was more dynamic?

So, at the last race, the hypercar Koenigsegg Agera RS did this "exercise" in 36.4 seconds, thus improving the achievement of the Bugatti Chiron for more than 5 seconds.

Initially, the race was to be held on September 30 at the training ground in Germany. However, the weather made its own adjustments, so the organizers of the arrival had to be relocated to Denmark urgently. It was in this country, on the runway of an abandoned military base, that a new record was set.

For the race selected Koenigsegg Agera RS with the optional package 1MW. Under the hood of the car, the turboturbated 5.0-liter V8 engine "hid". This "monster" produces 1360 hp. and 1370 Nm of torque. Behind the wheel of the hypercar was a test pilot of the Swedish brand Niklas Lilja. He dispersed the car to 400 km/h in 36.44 seconds. This is 5.52 times faster than the Bugatti Chiron. The acceleration took 26.88 seconds, and for braking - 9.56.
