Preparing the 1360hp One:1 for its Debut - /INSIDE KOENIGSEGG

Christian von Koenigsegg oversees the final preparation of the first Koenigsegg One:1 Megacar ahead of The Geneva Motor Show. The One:1 attains a power to weight ratio of 1 horsepower to every 1 kg of curb weight through unprecedented weight saving measures.

I cannot express how much I admire Christian Von Koenigsegg. What a genius. What a masterpiece this machine is. I wish and hope I can do the same!

[evanshanks]

The fact that he's just over forty years old and is successfully producing unbeatable, beautiful supercars is inspirational--especially from an entrepreneurial point of view. This is just awesome.

[sugarsaint]

This man is INCREDIBLE, .Tiny little family run supercar maker living at the absolute cutting edge of bespoke technology. 

The Americans buy some 20 year old Lotus chop it in half throw in a randomly tuned V8 the tell they world they own and look how beautiful their car is?

This guy drew his own car from scratch, then built it, then the most astonishing thing? developed one of the WORLDS most power yet clean engines to run it. 

Truly OUTSTANDING.

160HP more powerful that Veyron SuperSport, 500kg lighter, and DEFINITELY better looking. I want it.

Koenigseggs might not be my favourite super/hyper cars but Christian is my favourite automotive entrepreneur and engineer, his love for cars and what he is doing comes across is spades. The man is a genius.

[bloodpig]

Pagani makes cars that looks like art...this guy makes cars that looks like weapons!
I love it!

[juukame]

Koenigsegg is one of those companies where I just love and respect everything they do. Definitely one of my favorite series to watch.

So the Vikings ruled the seas, and now the roads.

Koenigsegg really does deserve more attention and praise for their incredible cars. They make some of if not the best cars in the world and yet you still don't hear about them nearly as much. Shame :/

[brudel]

I have so much respect for Christian. I like the fact that he himself is an engineering genius who thinks of new things, designs new things and they actually work. I love how the cars have massive torque from very little rpm to the redline. I liek the fact that every little part on this car is totaaly unique and is not found on any other car. And one thing what I like the most is that everything is made in sweden - its truly original supercar.

Porsche, McLaren and Ferrari be making hyper Hybrids and Koenigsegg comes along and says fuck it, lets make a "mega car".    

I want one. :D

Some of you may remember my last comment on an /INSIDE Koenigsegg video, telling Volkswagen Veyron fans to step up their shit talking game since the Agera R's power was featured on this show, and instead of finding anything new, or exciting from Bugatti, I find Mr. Christian von Koenigsegg, talking about his new car, a Megacar, producing damn near a megawatt of power, in a powerplant (pun intended) of a vehicle.
Some of you hate on the aesthetic appeal of the car, failing to realize that while so much of CCX and Agera are present, it's lead to the evolution of this... beast. The CCX window  curve, one of the lowest drag windshields on a production car, the agera's squatbar, which improves acceleration by stopping the rear from dropping on it's haunches, this doesn't just shatter the current hypercar mark of 1, 000 hp; it throws a Evo XIII through it.
I for one, cannot wait to see the shakedown videos.

Then = Print a paper of the turbo
Now = Print the whole turbo 

[RastaBIasta]

I would dedicate my life to work for this man and his company.

[TwistedHEROxX]

As an aspiring automotive engineer, these Inside Koenigsegg videos are amazingly inspiring. Thanks /Drive for exposing this awesome footage and cinematography!

[OddisProductions]

Another F Brilliant inside koenigsegg! Set up camp in the backoffice at Koenigsegg with weekly updates. < Success.

[FamilyCTSV]

I first found out about koenigsegg back in 2007 and since then it's been my favorite car make, learned about the company and completely fell in love with it's cars. Agera model ( of course Agera R and one:1) to me is by far the most beautiful car to ever set wheels on the planet. They continue to alway amuse me with their creations. Thanks a lot for the video DRIVE.

[Metaica]

This guy and mr Pagani are 2 of my favorite people. The result of their enthusiasm and passion is unmatched in the industry.

Thank you DRIVE for this new series!

[FerrarisRock]

What astonishes me about this car is that so much effort has gone into making it complete. Its one thing to make a car fast in a straight line *cough* hennessey* but this has the aero to truly match a gt1 car, along with active suspension I would not be surprised if it had better handling then a GT1 car… I envy the future owners of this car, and like always christian von koenigsegg (and horatio pagani) are the modern da vinci's of the car world. Mclaren P1 what?
