Koenigsegg Regera sets a new world record for homologated production cars 0-400-0 km/h at just 28.81 seconds and 0-250-0 mph at 29.60 degrees Celsius.
Koenigsegg Regera is Swedish for “To Reign,” and this new record stretches even further.
The Regera’s performance has been proven over the years on the road and track with several lap, acceleration and braking records, and now it has once again broken the 0-400-0 km/h records and 0-0 mph for the second time, managing this ultimate test of acceleration, speed and braking in an astonishing 28.81 seconds for km/h and 29.60 for mph.
Previously, the most famous record was the 2019 0-400-0 km/h record at 31.49 seconds, which broke Koenigsegg’s 0-400-0 km/h record which was set by the Agra RS at 33.29 seconds.
So why set these new records with a car that’s long off the production line? Because it’s possible. Because he’s still the king who reigns supreme in today’s super-competitive automotive landscape, and that’s something that should be celebrated with a new record.
The Regera was designed and engineered ten years ago and is still unbeatable, but how can the Regera be faster today than it was 4 years ago?
Simple Cup2R tires – New Cup2R tires from Michelin and a smoother track compared to previous records.

Unbeatable technology
The Koenigsegg Regera was built to excel and lead with revolutionary technology – and the cornerstone is the Koenigsegg Direct Drive (KDD) propulsion system.
The KDD allows the massive power of the in-house developed Twin Turbo V8 to be directly connected to the rear axle without a transmission, and it combines with an electric assist that supports with power and allows the generation of brakes like the F1 cars d ‘Today. It also gives a super smooth, direct response and extremely powerful punch, while treating its driver and co-driver in the most luxurious way.
The Koenigsegg Regera was launched at the Geneva Motor Show in 2015 and quickly sold out its limited run of 80 cars. The first cars were delivered in 2018, and production ended in 2022.
“This specific record means a lot to Koenigsegg,” explains Christian von Koenigsegg, founder and CEO of Koenigsegg, “because it is a record that covers all aspects of extreme performance. The fact that the Regera can still surprise and amaze the world of the automobile after all this time is a testament not only to its timeless design, but also to the engineering and technology that was way ahead of the curve. It’s something that makes me extremely proud, and in praising Jesko’s customer cars, we can’t wait to show you what’s next.”
