As stated on TheSupercarBlog<\/a>, Koenigsegg is expected to bring either 4 or 5 cars to the Geneva International Motor Show on March 3. One of those cars is almost certainly going to be the new Koenigsegg KG12 hypercar.<\/p>\n

The KG12 is different than all other Koenigsegg’s as it is the company’s first foray into the 2+2 seating style. While retaining the classic Koenigsegg low, removable roof and the dihedral synchro-helix doors, one wonders how the second row of seats would fit.<\/p>\n

A bespoke Koenigsegg 2.0 liter turbocharged 3 cylinder using the FreeValve camless will form the gas powered core of the system, with an extremely powerful electric motor paired with it.

The KG12 is expected to cost about $1.5 million US, with a total unit production of 300 cars, and deliveries are expected to start in 2022.<\/p>\n

Also expected to be shown at Geneva are the Mission 500 Jesko<\/a>, the new Koenigsegg $1 million “affordable” hypercar, and another car that has been shrouded in deep secrecy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
