2020 Koenigsegg Regera

Priced at an MSRP of $1,900,000, the body of the 2020 Koenigsegg is composed of carbon fiber and includes active aero aids. It also incorporates Autoskin technology. This lets you control hydraulically powered doors and clamshell hoods to open at the touch of a button. An upscale cabin with lighted cup holders, a retractable top, memory foam seats, and a nine-inch touchscreen infotainment display with wireless Apple CarPlay. Akrapovic titanium exhaust system and height-adjustable adaptive suspension with Ohlins dampers and shocks are also standard with the car.

The information regarding standalone features and optional packages are yet to be determined for the 2021 Koenigsegg Regera.

We Recommend

The 2020 Koenigsegg Regera remains to be one of the best hypercars of the year which is priced at an MSRP of $1,900,000. It has a powerful hybrid 5.0L twin-turbo V8. It comes with several features such as adaptive suspension, Ohlins dampers, Android CarPlay, etc. There really isn't any recommendation that we could make as every single Regara can be customized to be a bespoke piece depending on how the owner wants the car to look.

Release Date

The 2020 Koenigsegg Regera has already been released.

The 2020 Koenigsegg Regera comes with a standard hybrid 5.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine. This powertrain is aided by an electric motor on each rear tire. Each of these electric motors generates 241 horsepower, while a third electric motor on the crankshaft serves as a starter generator. This motor alone delivers 215 horsepower, for a total output of 1,489 horsepower and 1,475 lb-ft of torque. All of this power is directed to the back wheels, but with Michelin Cup2 tires, a clever suspension arrangement, and that direct drive transmission system, the Regera can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in less than 2.8 seconds and on to a (restricted) top speed of 255 mph. 

The 2020 Koenigsegg Regera offers more power than the Bugatti Chiron and Pagani Huayra. It performs well in terms of torque output and surpasses both of its rivals. The Huayra is slower to reach the 60 MPH mark than the Bugatti Chiron. Similarly, the Huayra lags behind the Chiron in terms of quarter-mile timing. The top speed of the car is 278 MPH which is at par with the rivals in the segment.

2020 Koenigsegg Regera Ride and Handling

Active front flaps and a folding active rear wing of the 2020 Koenigsegg Regera together function to enhance downforce on both sides of the car. Adaptive dampers with Ohlins shocks which are standard with the car improve its grip while also giving a composed ride. The car has negligible body roll when it is cruised through sharp twists and turns. Furthermore, Regera’s steering wheel is responsive to the inputs and imparts the necessary confidence to the driver. It is easy to maneuver the car through twists and turns, thanks to its appropriate turning radius. Moreover, the car’s traction control is its savior, without which it loses much of its grip, especially on a track. The noise insulation is also on point as it curbs all the outside noises effectively.

2020 Koenigsegg Regera Braking Performance

Depending on the nature of the driving, the 2020 Koenigsegg Regera ’s brake pads last about 20,000-60,000 miles. The information regarding the size of the brake rotors of the Koenigsegg Regera is not available. The car weighs around 3,510. The brake pedal is soft and responds adequately to the pressure applied. Furthermore, it undergoes almost zero nosedives when coming to a halt abruptly.

The 2020 Koenigsegg Regera comes with similar size brake rotors as other race cars in this particular segment. The data for the Bugatti Chiron is yet to be determined. The Regera is lighter than the 2020 Pagani Huayra which contributes to the overall momentum while cruising at high speed. The data for the stopping distance is not yet available for the cars.

The official EPA figures for the 2020 Koenigsegg Regera's fuel consumption are 11 MPG in a city, 11 MPG on a highway, and 11 MPG combined. This is worse than the Koenigsegg Agera RS which offers 11 MPG in a city, 18 MPG on a highway, and 13 MPG combined. The Regera comes with a fuel tank capacity of 21.1 gallons. The overall range of travel is 232.1 miles in the city and highway conditions. The 4.5 kWh battery is made by RIMAC which is made of 6 modules with 64 cells. The sole electric range is 21.7 miles. The plug-in charging requires 240 V AC input with a Type 2 connector.

The Koenigsegg Regera is more efficient in a city as compared to the Bugatti Chiron. The Pagani Huayra leads both of its rivals in this aspect. The Regera comes with a smaller fuel tank capacity as compared to the Chiron. This is also reflected in the overall range of travel, in which it lags behind the Chiron, both in a city and on a highway.

The 2020 Koenigsegg Regera comes equipped with quilted leather, carbon fiber, and aluminum-wrapped interior components. The roof from the inside has a distinctive cowhide treatment. The Regera's surreal door-opening mechanism may feel odd. Also, crossing the massive broad sill and low roof might be difficult, especially if you're a tall adult. However, once inside the car, the ambiance feels premium. There is a sufficient amount of space, which is rare in the cars of this segment. The visibility is good for the ride, even though it is such a wide car. However, some blind spots are evident and might affect your driving at times. The information regarding Standard features includes heated seats and a computerized driver info display.

The cabin dimensions of all three competitors are not yet available. However, all of them offer sufficient space for two occupants. The interior style choice is entirely up to the buyer, however, we would recommend the Bugatti Chiron's upscale and premium cabin. The material quality and feel of the Pagani Huayra and Koenigsegg Agera are similar.

Some of the key interior features available with the 2020 Koenigsegg Regera include:

• Quilted leather coverings
• Premium aluminum components
• Power adjustable seats
• Optional seatbelt cover
• Digital driver display
• Automatic climate control

The 2020 Koenigsegg Regera comes with an enormous front splitter that increases downforce. You can find a flush tail with an integrated wing that is deployable with an airbrake that sits above the slim LED tail lights. A double-bubble top of the car enhances headroom and comes with a glass skylight pane. Like previous models of the brand, the roof can be completely removed and stored in the front trunk. The doors lead into massive ducts that lead up to the engine on the side. Furthermore, a giant diffuser houses a central-exit exhaust tip on the rear. The 2020 Regera comes with 19 inches in the front and 20 inches in the rear. 

The outside design of each rival is distinct and stands appreciated among different kinds of audiences. The 2020 Koenigsegg Regera is longer than the Bugatti Chiron. It is also broader than Huayra and Chiron. The 2020 Regera offers the smallest wheelbase among its rivals. All four cars look immensely modern and futuristic. The 2020 Bugatti Chiron, in our view, has a robust exterior that gives it an advantage over competitors.

Some standout exterior features include:

• 19-inch aluminum front wheels
• 20-inch aluminum rear wheels 
• Slim LED headlights
• Daytime running lights
• Giant diffuser
• LED tail lights

The 2020 Koenigsegg Regera has never been crash tested before as it falls under the super expensive category which is rarely tested by the NHTSA and the IIHS. The Regera comes with a full carbon fiber monocoque that is stronger than the Bugatti Chiron. The standard features include standard airbags, front and rear parking sensors, rain-sensing wipers, a tire pressure monitoring system, parking sensors, rearview camera, and frontal and side-impact airbags are all standard on the Regera. Advanced safety features such as forward collision warning, automated emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and others are not yet available, not even as optional.

• Rearview camera

2020 Koenigsegg Regera vs 2020 Pagani Huayra

The 2020 Koenigsegg Regera is almost half the price as compared to the Pagani Huayra. The Regera’s engine is much more powerful than the Huayra, thanks to its hybrid engine setup. In terms of acceleration, the Regera dominates the Huayra by reaching the 60 MPH mark more quicker. It also leads the latter in terms of quarter-mile timing. On the outside, both of them look athletic and sporty, while inside the cabin, the Regera feels more functional and premium

2020 Koenigsegg Regera vs 2020 Bugatti Chiron 

Both of these hypercars are the epitome of powerful machinery. They both have their performance figures touching skies with 1400+ horsepower. Where the difference lies is the acceleration. The Bugatti Chiron remains unmatched in terms of the 0-60 MPH mark and, even in longer stretches, the car is quicker than the 2020 Regera. Even though the Regera is less fuel economical than the sibling Agera RS, it is still more efficient than the 2020 Chiron.

The 2020 Koenigsegg Regera is nothing less than a revolution for the brand. The brand itself is planning to launch several world firsts in the coming years. For Regera, a lot may change but for the 2020 edition, we can truly vouch for its excellent powertrain dynamics and handling characteristics. The ride stays composed and comfortable for most of the part. The exterior design of the car entails its price tag and the powerful machinery that the car has under its hood. The interior of the car provides a luxurious level of workmanship with several connectivity and utility features that some brands miss out on in this segment. Moreover, there are plenty of safety features to save you in case of an emergency. Therefore, in our opinion, if the 2020 edition of the Koenigsegg Regera is available for auction or used car market for a good price, it's definitely worth a purchase.
