What Koenigsegg was on Top Gear?
“Top Gear” Clarkson Drives the Koenigsegg CCX (TV Episode 2006) – IMDb.
Do Top Gear presenters choose their own cars?
The Top Gear team work closely with car companies in order to select which vehicles are featured on the show, but strict BBC regulations mean that Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May have to buy their cars from dealers, like us mere mortals.
Do Top Gear hosts actually drive?
Even though viewers are led to believe that it is the presenters driving the cars the entire time, apparently they are not. There are stunt drivers brought in to fill in, such as if the presenters are needed at another location. As far as we know though, The Stig does all of his own driving.
What kind of engine does Koenigsegg Agera have?
The car we’re driving is an early development machine and uses a 4.7-litre V8 with twin fixed-vane turbos. The production car will use a slightly gruntier 5.0-litre engine with variable-geometry vanes on the turbos for greater flexibility of boost.
Where do you sit in a Koenigsegg Agera?
Lower yourself awkwardly over the super-wide sill with ‘Agera’ carved across its alloy plating, then drop down low into the cossetting racing bucket. Like all cars with great driving positions, the wheel telescopes out a long way so you can get it right to your chest. Sit for a moment, look forward through the distant slot of a windscreen.
What’s the difference between Bugatti Agera and Koenigsegg Regera?
Koenigsegg intends for the Regera to rain on the Chiron’s parade, to make you question why Bugatti hasn’t done something this radical for the Veyron’s replacement. Perhaps in line with that, the Regera is intended to be a gentler experience than the Agera.
What kind of power does a Koenigsegg Regera have?
The assumption would be that the Regera (say it with a hard ‘g’, it translates as ‘to reign’), would give a passing nod to electrical power, before pointing you in the direction of its 1160bhp internal combustion output and showing you the way to 250mph. But you’d be wrong.
