The laurels of the world's record for the speed 400 km/h the former pilot of Formula 1 Juan-Pablo Montoya wore long – already the first of October 2017 the record of the Bugatti Chiron has fallen, and the new champion, Swedish hypercar Koenigsegg Agera RS, was what is called in the "basic" equipment, even the protective film from the wings and front spoiler did not shoot.

The slowdown was even more impressive – Koenigsegg Agera RS (or rather, the factory test pilot Nicholas Lilye) took a total of 9.56 with and 483 m to a complete stop (total distance 2441 m), and the total exercise time was only 36,44 with!
