Making 280mph Capable Carbon Fiber Wheels - /INSIDE KOENIGSEGG

One of the most disputed topics in the industry: Is it possible to make high performance carbon fiber wheels? Christian von Koenigsegg explains that it's not only possible, but his company has been doing it for a few years now. Take a look at how:

I find his extensive technical vocabulary in a second language almost as inspiring as the wheels themselves. CvK comes across as a very competent leader of his company.

It's always cool when the boss knows his shit.

Some say he is a mad car genius and sheds his own hair to reduce unsprung weight, others say he is as aerodynamic as his cars are.
all we know is he's called Christian von Koenigsegg!

Christian von Koenisegg has been 40 years old for half his life.

This guy didn't come from a rich family and only had a high school education when he built his first car. And now is the founder of one of the most prestigious car manufacturers in the world. Congratulations and what an awesome job he's done. By far my most favorite cars ever.

The only thing smoother than carbon fiber is this guy's head.

One of the few car companies that can justify the price of their cars. For 1 million dollars, you get 1 million dollars of car

this guy seems pretty laid back and explains things pretty well. would love to visit the shop!

This is how you reach the success ! You take part in all that your company does, not just leaving all the work to your workers and collecting the income :)

[garylowe]

I bet the CEO of ferrari or Porsche doesn't know how the wheels for their cars are made.

[NCHobbies]

Mad respect for Koenigsegg, he knows his shit inside out.

Ok, these in depth videos has led me to conclude that this is the best series on Youtube hands down.  Love you Koenigsegg

[SuryaDe]

Every Koenigsegg video I watch I get amazed. The level of engineering and the detail is just mindblowing. The Pagani is amazing but I think Christian takes his machine to a whole new level. It would be great to see something like this but with Pagani as well!

[ApriliaRacer]

Love this guy's passion for what he does!  Love the engineering!

[Sicksan]

Christian is proof that anything is possible if you put your mind to it. Never give up!

Amazing combo of engineering and craftsmanship!

For a mechanical engineering student this is porn. The highest quality car porn.

[SelimxBradley]

Damn, I love these mini episodes. Make more of them with other super car manufacturers! 

[FastCarsNoRules]

Screw the Bugatti, this car is the new king of the road!

They have to weight up the opposite side of the wheel to the valve because the proportion of the weight is so high a VALVE takes it out of balance.

I love this. Absolutely adore Christian and Drive's coverage. Thank you so much for making my Tuesday nights.
