The Koenigsegg CCX

One of the fastest street cars ever to be built looks and drives like it should! The Koenigsegg CCX is a machine that doesn't hold back and is always in the fast lane. If you asked me why does a car need to be able to do 0-60MPH in 3.2 seconds, I wouldn't know what else to say other than "I hate to be late".

The design of this supercar inside and out has been with the driver in mind. A perfect combination of weight and a fire-breathing dragon of an engine is the result of a small dedicated team from Sweden.

Under the hood is something so scary you might want to shield your childrens eyes. 806Bhp and 678lbs of torque is delivered through 2 superchargers that sit on the Koenigsegg V8 cast aluminium engine which has 4 valves per cylinder and double overhead camshafts. There is a further 50 mm in headroom, making the CCX the most spacious super car on the market, truly considering the taller driver's needs.

In corporation with Sparco, and Koenigsegg test driver Loris Bicocchi, Koenigsegg has developed a new seat design for the CCX. The structures of the seat are still carbon fibre, but now feature fully padded front surface and a tilting backrest.

The Engine in the CCX retains the incredible performance and power of the CCR engine, while running on US 91 octane fuel and complying with California emission regulations. The new and cleaner CCX engine also incorporates the first engine block design that is specifically created and cast for Koenigsegg, with the Koenigsegg shield embossed in the casting on both left and right side of the engine block. CCX stands for Competition Coupe X. The CCX commemorates the 10th anniversary of the completion and test drive of the first CC maiden prototype, which rolled out from the R&D Department in 1996.
