Koenigsegg Said to be Mulling More Affordable Model

Posted: 28 Apr 2014 08:35 AM PDT


And by more affordable we mean half the price of an Agera (~$650,000/€420,000), but still very expensive compared to regular supercars. It would obviously have to retain its Koenigsegg qualities and traits, but it would make the brand ever so slightly more popular or mainstream. Read more »

It's not at all unusual for carmakers to hide the platform and mechanical gear of an upcoming vehicle under the reshaped body of a different model from another brand within the same group, which seems to be the case with this Range Rover test mule.
