Why it matters

The Regera was designed as a luxury alternative to Koenigsegg's lightweight race-like cars. It pairs a twin-turbo V8 with three electric motors and an 800-volt battery through Koenigsegg Direct Drive, so there is no conventional gearbox, and it was the first 800 V production car.

Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.

History

Koenigsegg announced the Regera at the Geneva Motor Show in 2015 and built 80 in total. The electric motors drive the car away and the combustion engine joins in from around 30 km/h, with a hydraulic coupling that mimics a downshift during hard acceleration. A Regera set a 0-400-0 km/h record of 31.49 seconds in September 2019 and later a 28.81 second run in June 2023.
