Arguably one of Koenigseggs wildest creations, the Regera was unveiled in concept form at the 2015 Geneva International Motor Show, with its production debut the following year. Boasting Koenigseggs trademark Dihedral Synchro-helix doors and carbon fibre monocoque that allowed for a removable roof, at its heart was a revolutionary hybrid powertrain unique to the marque.

Dubbed the Koenigsegg Direct Drive system, it paired a 1,084 horsepower 5.0-litre V-8 engine fed by a brace of 3D-printed variable turbochargers with a trio of electric motors, two of which powered each rear driveshaft, while the conventional gearbox was replaced by Koenigseggs Hydracoup torque converter a remarkable and unique single-state drive mechanism. Allied to this was an 800-volt battery system utilizing technology from the top-flight of international motorsport. The electric motors not only smoothed out power delivery at low engine speeds, they also contributed a staggering 690 horsepower to the Regeras already prodigious output for a cumulative total of 1,479 horsepower.

Approximately 85 Regeras have been produced and the entire production run had been spoken for by 2017, a testament to its innovative new technology. The example on offer here, chassis no. 7218, was delivered new to the UK via SuperVettura, one of the official Koenigsegg dealers in the UK, in May of 2022 as part of a delivery of five Regeras for various UK customers.

Finished in Arctic White paintwork, the Regeras exterior livery boasts two carbon fibre stripes running the length of the car over the bonnet, roof, and tail, as well as a single stripe down both sides of the car. The car is fitted with the optional Tresex AirCore Carbon wheels alongside white brake calipers.

On display with SuperVettura at the 2022 Goodwood Festival of Speed, the car was sold to its present owner in Hong Kong that same year and was subsequently shipped to Hong Kong, where it has remained ever since. Unregistered, the car has accumulated less than 20 miles from new and is presented in virtually as-new condition throughout.

A technological tour de force in every respect, the Regera is undoubtedly one of the most remarkable cars produced thus far into the 21st century. It is the perfect example of Koenigseggs relentless drive towards innovation in the pursuit of the maximum possible performance to be extracted from a roadgoing automobile. This unregistered, delivery-mileage example is the perfect candidate for the individual who missed out on buying one new.
