When we first saw it earlier this year, we feared it could be just another prototype which never made in into production. But now an insider at the Swedish car manufacturer has told a newspaper they are set to start making them, albeit in limited numbers.
Koenigsegg, who are in talks to buy Saab from GM, say the car has 512hp and can speed from 0-62 in 5.2 seconds. It features a thin solar coating on the bodywork to top up power and can be charged (in a more conventional way) within 20 minutes. There is no word on price but suffice to say you won’t be able to afford one. [RegHardware]
