    "The Super Sport's flat, elongated silhouette is immediately recognisable. The 16-cylinder engine gets its air from two NACA ducts set into the roof, rather than from scoops above the engine. The front air intakes have been expanded and reshaped, with the lower one extending elegantly around the sides to the wheel arch. The revised back looks sportier due to the double diffuser and a centrally arranged exhaust system."

    "The super Sport's flat, unusually long in width is immediately recognisable. The 16-cylinder engine gets its air from two linked ducts inside the roof, rather than from scoops above the engine. The front air intakes has expanded and reshaped, with the lower one extanding around the sides to the wheel arch. The fixed back looks sportier due to the double diffuser and aranged exhaust system."

  • For example, the Triplex system works in series with the car's regular springs and dampers, allowing their spring and damping rates to be lowered. This results in increased comfort and better handling on rough and wet surfaces without compromising dry track handling.

      1. The triplex system works in series with the car's springs and dampers and allowing the springs and damping rates to be lowered. It increased comfort and better handling on rough or wet surface without messing up the dry track handling.
  • The Triplex system also has an anti-squat effect. Traditional anti-squat systems are designed into the geometry of the suspension. These systems do not add any components or weight, however they compromise the geometry of the suspension for other aspects of handling aside from anti-squat.

      The triplex system also has an anti-squat effect. Traditiional anti-squat system is designed into the suspension. These systems do not add extra parts or weight, but they quarrel with the geometry of the suspension like handling.
  • The unique shape of the combustion chambers, improving the resistance against detonation. High cylinder head clamp load, enabled by a specially designed engine block. This has proven to give a zero failure rate to combustion overpressure, even considering the extreme cylinder pressures. A unique engine block design, where the cylinder sleeves are used to further stiffen the aluminium block. A connecting rod design that reduces TDC dwell time and thereby enables higher mean pressures without detonation. Exhaust manifold and intake plenum trumpets designed to ensure the absence of peak RPM resonance and back pressure. An efficient ejector pump system reducing the crankcase pressure and aerodynamic losses.

  • large 80-litre fuel tank ensures a long driving range due to the relatively low average consumption. The Agera R follows the previous generations of Koenigsegg vehicles with its fuel tank being well protected, built centrally into the carbon fibre monocoque chassis. Since the fuel is placed centrally within the car, the weight distribution does not change regardless of whether the tank is full or empty. Thanks to the safe fuel tank position, the challenging US high-speed rear impact test was passed at the very first attempt.
