Koenigsegg Regera sets new world record
(Oilandgaspress) The performance of the Regera has been proven over the years on the road and on the track with several lap, acceleration, and braking records, and now it has again broken the 0-400-0 km/h and 0-250-0 mph records for the second time, managing this ultimate test of acceleration, speed, and braking in an astonishing 28.81 seconds for km/h and 29.60 for mph.
Previously, the most famous record was the 2019 0-400-0 km/h record at 31.49 seconds, which beat Koenigsegg’s 2017 0-400-0 km/h record that was set by the Agera RS at 33.29 seconds.
So, why set these new records with a car that is long off the production line? Because it can! Because it is still the King reigning supreme in today’s super competitive automotive landscape, and that is something that should be celebrated with a new record.
The Regera was conceived and engineered ten years ago and is still unbeatable, but how can the Regera be faster today than it was 4 years ago?
Simple – New Cup2R tires from Michelin and a smoother track compared to previous record runs.
All data was measured and verified by RACELOGIC.

The Regera was built to excel and lead with groundbreaking technology – and the cornerstone is the Koenigsegg Direct Drive (KDD) propulsion system.
The KDD allows the massive power of the in-house developed Twin Turbo V8 to be directly connected to the rear axle without transmission, and it combines with electric assistance that supports with power and allows for brake generation like on today’s F1 cars. It also gives a super smooth, direct response and an extremely powerful punch, while treating its driver and co-pilot in the most luxurious way.
The Regera was launched at the Geneva Motor Show in 2015 and quickly sold out its limited edition run of 80 cars. The first cars were delivered in 2018, and the production run came to an end in 2022.
