  • Final Koenigsegg Agera RS during Vmax200 event in April, 2018

    Koenigsegg's Agera RS is now out of production but the car is still obliterating records. On Saturday, the very last Agera RS ever built, a blue example owned by Neil Miller, hit 242 mph over a set distance of 1.3 miles at a Vmax200 event near Leicester in the United Kingdom. Vmax200 is similar to the standing mile events run here, but each Vmax200 event is hard to directly compare because the set distances often vary. Miller's Agera RS broke the previous Vmax200 record of 240 mph over a set distance of 1.4 miles achieved by a Koenigsegg One:1 in 2016. Miller wasn't doing the driving...

An amazing 277.9 mph. Perhaps more amazing still is that the final number used was the average of two runs. Meaning one of those runs was even higher. We're...
