Koenigsegg is finally coming to town – Naza Swedish Motors will represent the Swedish supercar brand in Malaysia. According to a report by The Star, the Naza Group subsidiary has inked an agreement with Koenigsegg Automotive to distribute and market Koenigsegg cars in Malaysia as well as Indonesia.
UPDATE: The Koenigsegg Agera S has been launched in Malaysia. Details and live gallery here.
The announcement of an official tie-up comes more than three years after a story in January 2010 intimated that Naza – which also handles Ferrari and Maserati in Malaysia – was set to become the local Koenigsegg distributor.
The report adds that Naza Swedish Motors will open its showroom and service centre sometime in the first quarter of 2014, which is also when the Koenigsegg Agera S will be introduced here. Pricing for the model reportedly starts from RM4.3 million.
The 1,415 kg Agera S is powered by a twin-turbo 5.0 litre V8 offering 1,030 hp at 7,100 rpm and 1,100 Nm of torque at 4,100 rpm, and the lump is mated to a specially-developed seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Performance specs include a 0-100 km/h sprint time of 2.9 seconds, and it’ll take 22.7 seconds for the Agera S to hit 300 km/h.
The report mentions that Koenigsegg has delivered 102 cars since the brand’s inception since 1994, and the company says it’s aiming to deliver up to 14 vehicles globally next year.
The announcement of Koenigsegg’s impending arrival follows the establishment of McLaren Kuala Lumpur, which opens its doors soon – the company recently previewed the MP4-12C ahead of its opening. Looks like there’s a healthy market for supercars here, eh?
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
They plan to sell 14 cars… globally? The mechanics here will be the most bored mechanics in the world then… (and can they even get a car for the showroom? Ready stock?)
Ask my wife to buy this for me!
Most of the 14 made will be ordered by Malaysians. Look at Lamborghini, their highest orders per annum comes from Malaysia. Of all countries worldwide, they receive the highest orders from Malaysia. Even when the Aventador was launched, 50 was snapped up by Malaysians.
Strangely, most of the buyers have no proper jobs. Neither have they inherited wealth. They just seem to have lots of money.
Can you list it out? Lamborghini owner without proper job…please…
Koenigsegg’s machanics fly from sweden to msia after an appointment for service or repair. You pay so much money for a hypercar, they will send you mechanics on demand. Same goes to singapore’s Koenigsegg customer.
meh…mine 2.6s only..rather get swedish chocolate.
14 for the whole wide world? How many allocated for malaysia? One for the Naza brothers and another for another sucker?
Or maybe one for our Agung? (he got all the hot new numbers (surely free lah)…W1A, W3A, W8A, W8888A etc)
malicious envy by hanjing hitam..
Sigh..Chill broather.. As usual the high ranking get all the nice cars while rakyat get crappy cars. Live with it.. i feel u.
Careful what you write boy, why need to mention DYMM Agong in this matter. Doing jail time seems like your idea of having fun I guess.
Get Nissan GTR or Carrera S rather than getting this useless kwai tai junk.
Don’t use my name here. I’m not envy to see other people drive sport cars. I’m only curious if they can beat me.
MACC officers should become undercover spy mechanics there.
Sure can catch lots of corrupt cronies big fish.
MACC dare not move a finger la. Mayb their big fish is actually their big big boss. Do u think they dare to touch big boss?
Yes. They dare. Just because they cant find evidence, they cant touch them. Once u got 100% solid evidence, even royal families need to go jail. No one is above the law. They only can play with law.
Which world are you living in friend? MACC got so much evidence on so many people but so scared to touch them. Look at Taib from Sarawak, he even ridiculed the MACC officers.
She’s from heaven. I know her well.
apa kah Naza mahu lagi ???
Nasa’s Luna Buggy agency perhaps!!
dude, do you think its the same buying a million dollar super car compare to buying your daily commute 4 wheels ?
Wow! I guess there will be a new aes record coming soon.
Ohohohohoho…. Wow Naza, just, wow
Wow….I need to start to become kronis for some politician now. My fav car coming to town~

The list goes a long way.
Buyers of these types of cars are usually business tycoons, not kronies whatsoever lah…
you are probably right, business govt linked tycoons. corrected
who? is it the one who control 70% of economy?
And u just have to bring in the racial issue again? Mind u. Even the yellow ppl gain more than 70% of the economy. But yellow monkeys are not that spend drift and on top of those 70-80% yellow monkeys are control by a handful of brown monkey king overlord.
i don said it but u said it..who those brown monkey?
do u have prove wat u said?…the reality u can see fr forbes top 50 boleh richest…if other people controlling them obviously many of them oso in the list..how many of them been control? can u give one name?..if not well…
So what.. Dont you think there’s no KRONI in USA politics?. KRONI everywhere. You can be KRONI as well should one of your buddy become somebody in politic. Dont lie lahhh
Isn’t mahathir’s son driving one of the two veyron in Malaysia? So he work so hard to buy Bugatti la. Said to be Muslim. Own a beer company? Said to be a legitamate business men, took contracts from the government with no tenders to prove? Keep it up BN. good job!
Just be a SetPol to the menteris…..u can buy one… .
who?
Bow to the master…
They should also make a deal with the vauxhall…i like the astra vxr a lot
Yes bring in Opel/Vauxhall rather than bring in this type of junk brand.Like the new Opel Cascada and Astra GTC.
Koenigsegg is not a junk, you pollock
I’ll be the first customer.. em, sort of..
Just wow…maybe i can see the ultracar anytime soon on malaysian road
No way seeing this junk on the road.
Naza, u got the Stig’s seal of approval. I don’t care if no one buys it, I just want to see(and maybe touch)it. Bring it over to the KLIMS ’12 and it will make my year, Naza.
Now, wheres that piggy bank of mine.
KLIMS’12 ayoyoyoyoyo..
I can’t even pronounce the name cohhectly !!
How are the owners supposed to drive one of these on our roads, then? Only PLUS highway is suitable for such a low riding car. Elswhere it will grind the under body. Ouch!
Congratulations to Naza. at least there’s a chance we might see this car on the road.
Where is Mr.Pagani?
Koenigseggisseggggnignigsegigisegggg
I’ll buy one for my grandson.
Meh, Suprima S is better. Got 5 stars Asean NCAP you know?
since when? even SS bro, Preve oso dont hav 5 star ASEAN-NCAP …they oni hav 5 star ANCAP
if not mistaken most supercar/hypercar do not hav any NCAP watsoever…
Why bother any NCAP for supercars, sure die when crash at 250km/h and above.
if u don agree..give me 1 current supercar/hypercar that have 5 star EuroNCAP
I’ll be very happy if they provide test drive unit at the showroom
The SA will bring the car for a test drive at your home because he wants to have a spin in it too.
I don’t think just anyone could test drive it. hahaha
Of course it is too junk to test drive it.
I also have this car now….in Need For Speed lol
i like how the door opens. something different than others.
and the meter cluster indicates the horsepower measurements. cool
RM 4.3 million? Fuh… just imagine how much tax the gov get from there. This will always be my DREAM car (in my dream la).
I’m actually kind of confused. Can someone explain why do you need to “distribute” a car brand that only plans to make 14 cars a year?
Sound more like Naza is saying “We’ve manage to get our hands on one car and we plan to sell it”.
Cool. This hyper car got 2 brake pad for each rear tyre.
bugatti owners, beware…
the first words when I sow the paultan headline jz now was “WOOOWWWW”.
lim dynasty can buy maa..
How much were you paid per hour? By your bosses.
For the elites and higher society ppl plus porn stars cause the name says it all konek sex
These kind of vehicles are not for the ordinary richmen who drives Benz & BMW & Porsche.
Doesn’t it feel great to monopolize almost all the car brands including AP beside GLC.
On that very last sentence of the article, I start to think positively one day, the gov has to increase speed limit on the highway
Yes maximum 120km/h
healty market for supercar due to Income inequality in Malaysia.The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
From all the comments above, I can’t help but feel sorry for whomever is lucky enough (or privileged enough) to own the Koenigsegg…don’t get me wrong it’s a fantastic car…but it’s about the stigma that comes with owning such a beast of a car…
Racists, we all know whom his/her name is. It is above.
And racists/kronies can never care about the ongoing massive nuclear disaster in Japan.
Junk = sour grape; can you even buy a C-class every single year? Let alone E and S.
I thought there were a lot of real car enthusiasts when I saw the figure 60 comments.
If I had save from young like Rosmah, I could hv afford to get this car already…
btw not all pakai lambo or supercar is kroni… i got one fren which below 35… got GTR and lambo superleggra direct import from uk. he work hard, ada business sendiri.. like own medium hotel, retails shop and also a few petrol station. and he is a brown monkey… not all brown monkey tak tau business maa…. no need to join 08, 04, 36 or any group with number… sigh*
are you sure? 4++ mill only?
kalau kita beli ini jangan marah ya…bukan duit rakayat….honest (cross fingers)
Some say he doesn’t care about the owners’ stuff, he appreciates and thanks the one who bought this beauty and drive the hypercar out for Malaysians to see and hear the noise. #realcarsenthusiasts
bila langgar kancil u cry maaa….
