Watch a 1500HP Koenigsegg Regera Do a Righteous Burnout

From Road & Track

You probably understand that 1500 horsepower is a lot of power for a car. Particularly a car that sends every one of those ponies to the rear wheels.

Clearly, traction is going to be an issue.

This is the 1500-hp, hybrid-powered, no-gearbox Koenigsegg Regera, the latest insanity out of Sweden's hypercar maker. It's a short video, yes, but it gets the point across: This thing will absolutely murder tires.

Want to see and hear more? Here's video of a Regera prototype blasting to nearly 220 mph on a dyno. Here it is murderslaying its way down Koenigsegg's test runway. And here's the founder and madman-in-chief Christian von Koenigsegg giving us a tour of the car, explaining all the wild and crazy engineering that went into making a 1500-hp hypercar.
