Koenigsegg: Gemera whirs to the start 🎥
NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE Supercar maker Koenigsegg unveils the production version of the Gemera, unveiled as a study in 2020, and shows off the home of the high-performance model - the Gripen Atelier.
In the halls of the Gripen Atelier on the Koenigsegg campus in Ängelholm, Sweden, the Gemera is initially being built on an area of more than 11,000 square meters, and later further models are to be built there after further expansion on an area of around 30,000 square meters.
Horrendous peak performance
Christian von Koenigsegg, founder and CEO of the brand, describes the model as the world's first four-seater megacar, with horrendous top performance, a gigantic technical masterpiece. Unlike the two-seater Regera, the new Gemera uses the 9-speed LSTT transmission (Light Speed Tourbillion Transmission) rather than the Direct Drive system. Two drive groups are optionally available.
System power up to 2300 hp
The Gemera TFG combines a 3-cylinder biturbo gasoline engine (600 Nm, 600 hp) with the new Dark Matter electric motor (1250 Nm, 800 hp). This results in a system output of 1400 hp and a maximum torque of 1850 Nm. Naturally, this drive power is distributed to all four wheels. In the Gemera HV8 model, Koenigsegg proves that even a hybrid drive with V8 biturbo mid-engine and four seats can be combined. While here the electric motor again delivers 1250 Nm and 800 hp, 1500 Nm and 1500 hp come from the 5-liter biturbo V8. According to the manufacturer, this adds up to 2750 Nm and 2300 hp.
Race car power-to-weight ratio
Christian Koenigsegg: "The Gemera HV8 is not only the most powerful production car on the planet, it is also the most practical and customer-friendly model we have ever built. The power-to-weight ratio is 0.9 kilograms per horsepower. Production of the Gemera is scheduled to start in late 2024, with first deliveries in 2025."
