"There&amp;#039;s little question that Koenigsegg makes some of the fastest cars in the world. But to get them there, the Swedish automaker has optimized its 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine to run on E85 fuel, helping it produce 927 horsepower in the Agera or 1,124 in the Agera R. The trouble is that not every place in the world has ethanol mixed into its fuel. So for those markets, Koenigsegg has released the new Agera S. Designed to run on regular pump gas, the Agera S develops 1,040 horsepower, putting it smack in the middle output-wise between the existing Agera and Agera R. Although this new powertrain spec debuted on the Hundra edition at the Geneva Motor Show this past March, Koenigsegg has just presented the Agera S in standard production form for the first time at a special reception in Singapore, where the first example sold for the equivalent of $4.2 million. Singapore&amp;#039;s colossal tariffs account for most of that, but there&amp;#039;s no doubt that the Agera S is one highly capable piece of machinery: quoted figures place its 0-62 time at 2.9 seconds, its top speed in excess of 250 mph and its lateral acceleration at 1.6 g.
