What's YOUR best guess at what this purple beauty will run? It's probably 400 kg lighter than Rimac Nevera (maybe more on low fuel), if CvK hits his own mark. Enough torque off the line from e-side alone I'd say, but it's all about the clutches per wheel to feed perfect torque at high refresh rate, to have a proper Plaid/Rimac/Taycan/Turbo S/918/765LT level dig. They want 0-60 in the 1.8s or 1.9s? That's be epic. Now if they can feed that power well and go through the superblitz gearbox well...putting down pretty much all the torque the tires can handle... Sub 9 should be easy. Rimac at 2300 kg does that easily. 8.5-ish, each? Low 8s? High 7s...a lot to ask I guess. Will the 3-cyl be quicker in the 1/4mi? Weight difference could be more than having a big dude passenger. The extra power over 1400 hp won't get put down for the first 1/8 mi surely?

Better acceleration than originally planned thanks to the 9spd in stead of torque converter mostly I think. Less e-power so less weight in motors and inverter. Less battery capacity need, so lighter battery. Frees up room to make fuel tank larger and they have. Crazy range cruising on the 3-cyl I'm sure. Hit the throttle and it's a 600 hp 8250 rpm screamer backup by an 800 hp e-motor and AWD torque vectoring. It'll take a very wide and very long runway to seem it could use more power :-D

I do very much hope they do balls to the wall with the traction and launch control. It's not been their strongest point traditionally I think. With the modest weight I can imagine the launch from dig might be in like 2nd or 3rd gear, but only engaging well into the run. The 800hp electric may well have enough torque (despite the very long gearing) to spin 4 wheels up to 30 mph or more. The V8 then comes in gradually I imagine, saving the battery and leaving some for an second push when the 1500 hp V8 alone can't spin up all for wheels anymore and you're still demanding maximum torque.

Other cars are being reduced to copy/paste engineering efforts with a slight aesthtics redesign. Koenigsegg skips over a decade with this one, it seems. Imagine making a hypercar and having to present it after Gemera was presented and rolled off stage. The Ferrari Daytona is a bland aesthetic tweak of their mass produced supercars in comparison. For the same price as Gemera which is a revolution in every way.

From what speed will the full beans be fully unleashed onto a decent drag strip? 120 mph? 150 mph? I wonder what tney'll actually do with the top speed. Might the way they tie and deploy in the e-motot limit it to 250 mph still, despite adding 900 hp on the ICE side versus the launch drivetrain? If they wanted to, of course a quick run to 300 mph would be peanuts, tires permitting.
