When we first laid our hands on the Koenigsegg One:1 supercar, we knew from the start the were dealing with the most powerful megacar that the auto industry has ever had.

And the video below is not only demonstrating the skills that this supercar is coming with, but it also demolishes a world record in just a simple test track. But things don’t stop here.

Remember the world track record established in 2011 by the iconic Agera R, with just 21,19 seconds for a full run from 0 to 300 km/h? Well, this is nothing compared to the figures achieved by the Koenigsegg One:1 for the same distance.

The Koenigsegg took 17,95 seconds for the same 0 to 100 km/h straight line run, which is 3.24 seconds faster, meaning that the Guinness World Record is now in the hands of this supercar. But things….still don’t stop here either! You might laugh, but I don’t want to put the Agera R in a tough spot: the world record was achieved by Robert Serwanski in a simple test, without any preparations and ….. without having his hands on the steering wheel! Now, that’s a world record worth keeping in the books forever! But the video speaks for itself!

The Koenigsegg One:1 was launched back at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, competing against the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, the megacar coming with a 5.0-liter aluminum engine, which goes as far as 1,3400 horsepower and whopping 1,371 Nm of torque. The sprint from 0 to 100 km/h is done in just 2.8 seconds, at a topping of 450 km/h.
