To set the record straight, and restore JLB's faith in my ability to side-step all-too-common tropes, I took the current year Agera's specs and transformed them into the 2046 version. Granted, I likely underestimated the 30-years' worth advancements in raw engine power, but the effort was made nonetheless: to avoid saying this year's car is sufficient to describe future ones because this year's is going to be seriously unrefined compared to what will be rolling off the line 30 years in the future.


2014
Engine: 1,030 hp, twin-turbo, 5.0-liter V-8
0-62 mph (that is, 100 km per hour): 2.9 seconds
Starting price: $1,520,000 USD

2046
Engine: 1,460 horse power engine, V-8 block
0-62 mph (100 km/hr): <2.5 seconds
Starting price: $3,000,000 CCD


And as a note, if I had a schematic representation of the 2046 version, I would have posted it. Alas, I am not privy to Koeinigsegg's engineer's sketchpads.

Hey, it's not raining on your parade to say car specs woosh over my head faster than I presume that thing can drive! Now quit the sad puppy, or you'll start to make me feel all bad and stuff. *grin*

That better, thal?
"So?" said Loki impatiently.  "This isn't the first time the world has come to an end, and it won't be the last either."
