The Koenigsegg Agera RST is BACK! And it’s going up against the Tesla Model X Plaid!

This is set to be one really interested drag race. We know the electric power of the Model X will propel it off the line, but not only is it down on power compared to the Koenigsegg, it’s also SO much heavier! But will that prove decisive?

For starters, let’s check the stats. The Koenigsegg is powered by a 5-litre twin-turbo V8 that can produce 1,360hp and 1,570Nm of torque. This power is sent to the rear wheels only via a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox, and the car weighs just 1,395kg. It’s one of the most expensive cars we’ve ever featured, valued at a cool £3,500,000!!

As for the Tesla, it’s powered by 3 electric motors, and these combine to produce 1,020hp and 1,420Nm. The car has all wheel drive, and it weighs in at a fairly colossal 2,468kg. If you’re looking to pick one up today, it’ll cost around £127,000.

So the Tesla weighs over a tonne more than the Koenigsegg! So does it stand a chance? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!
