Never has a car been more appropriately named than Koenigsegg’s Agera XS.

Equally appropriately, it’s heading to the land of excess as the first Koenigsegg to be homologated to be driven on US roads.

The Agera XS is more or less the same as the ‘regular’ Agera underneath, which means a 5.0-litre twin-turbo V8 sending 865kW to the rear wheels through a seven-speed automated manual transmission.

The XS features a bespoke aerodynamic setup inspired by the One:1, including the biggest rear wing ever fitted to a Koenigsegg at the request of the owner, because everything is bigger in the US.
