We’ve experienced this first hand and we can assure you, it is every bit as impressive as it looks! Rob Ferretti and his Superspeeders video franchise took a trip to Europe recently and stopped by Koenigsegg while they were there.
The video below shows Koenigsegg test driver Robert Serwanski putting the Agera R through its paces on their legendary runway. In two runs he manages to demonstrate what Koenigsegg’s in-house traction control and stability control systems do.

We did of course road test the Koenigsegg Agera R earlier this year. In total, the Koenigsegg Agera R produces 960hp on 95 octane regular fuel and 1,140hp running on E85 bio fuel. In the video above it seems to handle like a car with a quarter of the power!
Common – can you please give the Veyron a break. We all know, it is an ageing [even still very fast] model. I guess Koenigsegg just focussed on stability and safety [and electronic measures] after the fiasco on the Top Gear Race Track???
