Koenigsegg Regera

The Koenigsegg Regera (Swedish for "to reign" or "to rule") is a plug-in hybrid targa-top megacar created by Swedish supercar manufacturer Koenigsegg.

:Text originally from the Koenigsegg Regera's Wikipedia page.
Koenigsegg founder Christian von Koenigsegg purchased a Tesla Model S P85+ in 2013, and was impressed by the car's ability to instantly deliver power without the need for a downshift or to wait for turbo lag. He was especially impressed with the direct and intuitive experience provided by an electric car like the Tesla, remarking that the instantaneous response of the motors was something even a Formula One car could not attain with a traditional internal combustion engine. Von Koenigsegg sought to combine this desirable aspect of electric powertrains with the traditional Koenigsegg experience of a lightweight, powerful sports car.
Realizing some form of compromise was necessary, von Koenigsegg decided to look to a hybrid solution. By removing the traditional 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and switching to a single-gear direct-drive system, Koenigsegg mitigated the added weight of the three electric motors and a 4.5 kW·h battery pack installed in the Regera as compared to the previous Agera models. The single-gear electrical solution also provided the instant response that von Koenigsegg sought, while the onboard internal combustion engine would then maintain the rapid acceleration and power at higher speeds where the electric motors are less effective.
Christian von Koenigsegg invented the Koenigsegg Direct-Drive System (KDD), and it was developed for the Regera by the Koenigsegg Advanced Engineering Team. The KDD system effectively eliminates the need for a transmission and allows for pure EV (electric vehicle) mode. The Regera doesn't have a traditional multi-gear transmission but instead features a single-speed fixed-gear transmission, often called a direct-drive, with a 2.73:1 reduction ratio, meaning the crankshaft mounted on the ICE will rotate 2.73 times for every 1 time that the output shaft of the direct-drive mechanism will rotate.
At speeds below 30 mph, the wheel shaft electric motors mostly propel the car through the use of a hydraulic coupling that lets the ICE and the crankshaft mounted electric motor slip. In reverse, only the wheel shaft electric motors propel the car. Above 30 mph, the RPM of the crankshaft mounted electric motor and internal combustion engine are proportional to wheel speed through locking of the hydraulic coupling. However, Christian von Koenigsegg described and demonstrated how the Regera features a steering-wheel-mounted paddle that simulates a traditional downshift by initiating slip of the hydraulic coupling connecting the crankshaft to the output shaft. This results in higher RPM of the ICE and the crankshaft mounted electric motor and therefore higher power at lower speeds than what would have been possible if the coupling would have been locked at all times. Koenigsegg reported that the omission of a gearbox and addition of electric motors and battery only added 88 kg (194 lb) compared to what the Regera would have weighed with the same combustion engine but a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT) and no electric motors or batteries.

The Koenigsegg Regera appears as a high Class S car with the following rank statistics:
*Stock rank: 3,460 ()
* rank: 3,612
* rank: 3,793 ()
* rank: 3,980 ()
* rank: 4,176 ()
* rank: 4,403 ()
* rank: 4,616 ()
=== Performance ===
The Regera has the third-highest top speed of any car in the game (after the Koenigsegg Jesko and SSC Tuatara), at 273 mph (440 km/h). This comes at the cost of handling, drifting, and nitro efficiency; performance aspects that the Bugatti Chiron is superior in. However, if managed properly, it can be competitive in multiplayer and events.
=== Availability ===
Blueprints for the Koenigsegg Regera were initially available only through its Special Event as well as limited-time packs that were available only for the duration of the event. blueprints were obtainable from solo rewards while the remaining were obtainable from club rewards; combined, players could get up to Regera blueprints—enough to unlock the car and star it up to with extra blueprints left over—from the event.
Following the conclusion of its Special Event, blueprints for the Koenigsegg Regera could only be obtained from limited-time packs featuring it, available at irregular intervals.
With the update to the Garage Level system during the King of the Fall Update, the Koenigsegg Regera's blueprints could now be obtained from most limited-time packs, including packs that do not feature it. In addition, Regera blueprints can be purchased from the Legend Store once the player reaches Garage Level 17.
Up to Koenigsegg Regera blueprints were obtainable from the rerun of the Koenigsegg Regera's Special Event.

===Summary===
The Koenigsegg Regera won in the 2016 Community Car Poll alongside the Arrinera Hussarya GT, Aston Martin One-77, DC Avanti, Ferrari FXX K, Honda Civic Type R, Lamborghini Centenario LP 770-4, Lexus LFA, Saleen S5S Raptor, and W Motors Fenyr SuperSport.
The Regera was added in the Showdown Update, three years after its initial appearance in the 2016 Community Car Poll.
The Koenigsegg Regera is a high-end Class S car with the following statistics:
*Starting rank: 1626
*MAX rank: 1759 (+133)
**This was changed to 1749 (+123) in the 2019 Halloween Update.
*MAX+PRO rank: 1862 (+103)
**This was changed to 1862 (+113) in the 2019 Halloween Update.
*Tuning Kit bonus: +67
**This was changed to +56 in the 2019 Halloween Update.
*Nitro Efficiency: 6/11/15.5
===Performance & Usage===
The Koenigsegg Regera has decent acceleration, high top speed, decent handling with mediocre drift radius, and decent nitro efficiency.
While the Regera has the top speed and nitro duration to rival the other cars in its tier and placement, it lacks the acceleration needed to be competitive in multiplayer. In Gauntlet races, it is best used as the 2nd-5th car.
=== Price===
As of the 2020 Halloween Update, the Koenigsegg Regera can be purchased for which was previously only obtainable from its R&D event.
The Regera was available for limited time during the following dates:
*October 31- November 5, 2019: 
*February 5 - 8: 2020: 
*March 20 - 30, 2020: 
*April 22 - 26, 2020: 
The Regera was obtainable by reaching Tier 20 with the Premium upgrade in the Koenigsegg Gemera Festival. Players who already had the car would win 7x instead.
The Regera was obtainable for a second time by reaching Tier 8 with the Premium upgrade in the Bugatti Bolide Festival. Players who already own the car would win 5x instead.
The Regera was obtainable for a third time by reaching Tier 25 with the Premium upgrade in the RAESR Tachyon Speed Festival. Players who already own the car would win 10x instead.
The Regera was obtainable by landing the dice in the Super Round and then landing on its cell or reaching Stage 2 by collecting 8,000 Treasure Points in its Treasure Rush. Players who already owned the car in the Super Round or prior to the event would get 20x in Stage 2 instead.
If the player purchased 5 bundles in the Hot Deal section that contained 25x Normal Dice, in each bundle and on the 5th bundle, 8,000 Treasure Points, the car is unlocked.
As of the Gangstar Season Update, upgrades require 55 of each , , , and , 60 , 60 , 160 , and .
