Not enough HP...and not fast enough.

Only yesterday, Koenigsegg confirmed plans to unveil a new RS version of its Agera supercar at the upcoming 2015 Geneva Motor Show. Now the Swedish firm has announced a second model which it describes as a “megacar,” just like it does with its One:1, currently the world’s most powerful production car.

Koenigsegg’s second car for the Geneva Motor Show is called the Regera, and it’s likely packing at least 1,341 horsepower, or one megawatt of power if you’re used to measuring a car’s power in terms of watts, hence the megacar descriptor. Since the One:1 produces 1,341 hp, Koenigsegg also refers to it as a megacar.

That’s about all we know about the Regera but there may be a clue in the car’s name. The name is possibly an amalgamation of the word “regeneration” and the existing “Agera” name. This would suggest that the upcoming car is based on the existing Agera but has some form of energy recovery system to match the tech offered by rival supercars like the Ferrari LaFerrari, McLaren P1 and Porsche 918 Spyder. There’s also the possibility that we may see Koenigsegg finally debut its cam-less engine tech on the new car.
