Auction house RM Sotheby’s has listed one of the rarest modern hypercars in the world — a 2015 Koenigsegg One:1. The car is expected to fetch between 8 and 10 million euros, which is equivalent to approximately 9.1-11.4 million US dollars. RM Sotheby’s reports this.

The model is extremely rare, as the Swedish manufacturer built only six customer examples of the One:1. For sale is chassis #7108, which is considered the third production car created for a buyer.

The name One:1 comes from the power-to-weight ratio of 1:1. The car is equipped with a 5.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, which produces 1341 hp (1360 PS).

The hypercar’s dry weight is only 1360 kg. It is thanks to these characteristics that Koenigsegg called the model the world’s first “megacar,” as its power exceeds one megawatt.

According to the manufacturer, acceleration from 0 to 400 km/h takes about 20 seconds. The top speed was limited by the capabilities of tires certified for speeds up to 440 km/h.

The car offered for sale has a mileage of only 4,233 km. Since its release, it has been regularly serviced at the official brand dealer Esser Automotive and specialized service centers.

A special feature of this example is the body made of exposed carbon fiber and Kevlar with accents in China Pink color. The aerodynamic elements, brake calipers, and unique Aircore carbon fiber wheels are finished in the same style.

The interior is trimmed in black leather and Alcantara with pink decorative inserts. The car is also equipped with carbon fiber sports seats.

Among the technical features of the model are active aerodynamics, variable geometry turbochargers, adaptive Triplex suspension, and a seven-speed dual-clutch automated manual transmission.

Together with the car, the new owner will gain access to the closed Koenigsegg Ghost Squadron community, which unites owners of the most exclusive models of the Swedish brand.
