The 2011 Koenigsegg Agera is a mid-engined targa-top hypercar developed by Koenigsegg as a successor to the Koenigsegg CCX.

Description

"The Bugatti Veyron may be (slightly) faster, but the Agera is among the most interesting of the current breed of hypercar. It certainly has the requisite manic power numbers, courtesy of a 940 horsepower, twin-turbo, 5-liter V8. With a top speed of greater than 260 mph and a sub-three-second 0-60 mph time, no one can deny its performance. But Christian von Koenigsegg’s genius is in making his cars boldly distinctive, and while the CCX and its derivatives are definitely that, the Agera is a further evolution of the theme. From every angle the new composite body (draped over a variant of the CCX’s incredibly stiff chassis) is fascinating, and it also provides improved downforce. For example, those halo-shaped taillights surround heat-extracting vents to help cool the engine. And the wheels are specially designed as vortex generators, cooling the brakes and increasing downforce. Of course, it wouldn’t be a Koenigsegg without some special details, like the wraparound windshield, distinctive cockpit, and the ghost on the engine cover. Ghost? Yes, it’s a tribute to a Swedish air force squadron that previously occupied Koenigsegg’s Ängelholm facility and used the ghost as its emblem." - Forzamotorsport.net description

The Koenigsegg Agera builds on the Koenigsegg CCX's stellar performance, complete with superb top speed, acceleration, and launch. However, as it is only the base model in its range; the regular Agera's handling and braking abilities are above-average, but still good. The Agera has superior top speed over almost all cars in the series, only topped by the likes of the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, Hennessey Venom GT, and Koenigsegg One:1.

Trivia

  • "Agera" roughly means "to take action" in Swedish.
  • The Agera's wiper in Forzavista is positioned across the center of its windscreen, but during gameplay, the wiper is positioned across the right-side of the windscreen.
