Koenigsegg is adding another monster to its line up of hypercars in what is being called the world first "megacar", the One:1. Just last month the Hennessey Venom GT became the worlds fastest production car and now it looks like Koenigsegg is here to rip that title away. The One:1 weights in at 2,956 lbs and comes stocked with a newly developed 5-liter V8 that produces 1,341 horsepower, or 1 megawatt, and 1,011 lb-ft of torque, this completes the 1:1 power-to-weight ratio - giving it the name One:1. The One:1's insane power allowes it to go 0 to 248.5 mph in just 20 seconds. In order to safely harness the power and speed, Koenigsegg has added Agera R's 397mm breaking system. The system couples 397mm front power assisted ceramic discs with six-piston calipers and 380mm disks in the back with four piston calipers. The breaking system allows the One:1 to come to a full stop from 248.5 mph in just 10 seconds. The new aluminum 5-liter V8 also runs, not only on gasoline but, on E85 biofuel and uber-efficient race fuel. There are currently six One:1 production models, already sold, but Koenigsegg will most likely show off their new prize at next month's Geneva Auto Show.
