For me the engine head is the star. Each valve with an actuator, two exhaust valves per cylinder, two turbos, each of them driven by one of the valves. When only one turbo is needed, only one of the valves is opening.

The Koenigsegg Gemera is a limited production four-seat plug-in hybrid grand tourer (or 2-door sports saloon) to be manufactured by the Swedish automobile manufacturer Koenigsegg. It was unveiled on 3 March 2020 at an online broadcast by Koenigsegg at the cancelled Geneva Motor Show.

I don't think the new head depends on the configuration of the block. Each cylinder is independant, for what is concerning the head. No camshaft, no timing belt or chains. You can make it inline, V, W, star or whatever one desires. It just doesn't matter.
Edit: only the exhaust pipes should be longer before the turbo, since each turbo is driven by one valve of each cylinder. (Normally one turbo is fed by one bank, here the exhaust pipes have to be arranged in the manner of BMW's M5 (X5M etc) engine.

Most of the innovation apparently came from their sister company called FreeValve:
Very interesting on how the engine works...
Yep. And I guess it's the first twin turbo 3 cylinder, because you can't have a twin turbo on 3 cylinders normally.

This might be the most exciting cooperation in the auto industry yet!
Koenigsegg And Polestar Are Collaborating On 'Something Exciting'
It involves the Gemera and Precept Concept, but what could it be?
Koenigsegg and Polestar have at least one thing in common. Both companies call Sweden home, but a new Instagram post from Koenigsegg suggests there’s more commonality between the brands than meets the eye.
As we see below, Koenigsegg shared a photo showing the front clips of two cars. One is the new Gemera four-seat hypercar, recently unveiled at what would’ve been the Geneva Motor Show. The other is the Polestar Precept Concept, another car that was slated for a Geneva Motor Show debut. As for an explanation, the teaser post only tells us that something exciting is coming and we should “stay tuned.”
The teasing isn’t limited to Koenigsegg, however. On Polestar’s Instagram feed we get another photo of the two cars, this time showing their backsides. The text with this post is just as vague, though we’re at least told the meetup is happening on Sweden’s west coast. “Stay tuned” is mentioned again, so this isn’t some off-the-cuff collaboration. We sense deeper plans and a clear strategy at work here.
Unfortunately, we’re as in-the-dark on this as everyone else. We’ve heard nothing on the rumor mill from insiders regarding a Polestar-Koenigsegg collaboration, but there’s certainly some additional commonality between the two brands beyond their Swedish roots.
The Gemera is Koenigsegg’s take on a four-seat GT car with at least some measure of practicality, offering seating for four and enough space for groceries or suitcases. It’s also supremely electrified as a plug-in hybrid, using three electric motors along with a twin-turbocharged three-cylinder engine to develop a staggering 1,700 combined horsepower.

Spotted my first Gemera today. Close to Koenigsegg airfield. Had fake plates so maybe on the way to their testtrack?
First I thought it was an Laferrari but when he came closer I saw what it was.
Very low and wide and brown/cooper colorish. I was on my motorcycle so I gave him thumbs up.
No pictures, sorry,
Have a nice summer all!
