Koenigsegg Trevita CCXR - Jay Leno's Garage

Trevita means three white in Swedish, thus Koenigsegg's latest is limited to three breathtakingly handbuilt cars. Strip away the carbon fiber and you'll find a bespoke 4.8-liter V8 yielding 1018 hp - same as the Bugatti Veyron at half the weight!

Had the ultimate privilege meeting him at Geneva, one of the nicest guys ever and lost brain cells talking to him and his intelligence. Koenigsegg is the man.

[bukskiebuks]

Im no swedish. But c'mon guys seeing the founder of the one of the greatest cars ever made. Talking and act like a normal person. Makes me so proud.

[Disrupptive]

Mr. Von Koenigsegg is a true engineers engineer. Unbelievable to think in a little more than a decade, he has built and produced cars that rival the great manufacturers (Lamborghini, Ferrari, Audi, ect.)  To build a complete car in house from chassis, interior, suspension, and their own engine and transmission, truly revolutionary and inspirational.

So much respect for Mr. Koenigsegg! Amazing what he's achieved in such a (relatively) short period of time & at such a young age. Bravo, sir!

[TFQ]

22 years old started a freaking hypercar company, buulding a hypercar is something even the biggest automotive company with all their money and resource fear to take chances. Many hypercars has came and failed already. But this man did something no one else could, maximum respect for that.

I don't think I've ever heard Jay speaks so highly of any car as much as you did about this beast! Hope diamond! Amazing art!

[residnt]

"The problem is, everyone is driving slow." I feel you Jay.

[xlex.the.menxce]

Christian is such a cool guy. The fact that he started this program and is doing pretty much everything in house is exceptional. The level of detail appears to match that of Pagani. This car is truly beautiful, like Jay said, I could just go to the garage and look at it. My hats off to Christian and his team for engineering such a great supercar.

[Texas_Cruiser]

I remember when carbon fiber was worth its weight in gold and a 128 mb flash drive was $60. We sure have come a long way.

[stephenbrandon]

He is a real dude. Showing up with his car. Awesome.

[doodskie]

some say christian koenigsegg lost his hair to improve aerodynamics.

[adj]

Ferrari's, Lambo's, Porsche's are all very cool but this guy breaks the mold

[dennelclayton]

This first time I became aware of a Koenisegg was in a film called "Need For Speed ". I became hooked everysince.

You can tell that Christian is like one of the most laid back, coolest / intelligent guys that you'd wanna hangout with. A beautiful, hand-built, superexotic driving machine.

[FloridaCams]

2 guys with infinite passion for cars. I love Jay's down to earth nature and amazing personality! Von Koenigsegg is a true genius who has made one of the most desirable cars ever made.

[manpera]

To have a car enthusiasts like Jay admire your work, yeah I'd have a smile of pure bliss. What a master piece of engineering Mr. Koenigsegg.

[IWalkOnGuildedSplinters]

This guy is building the best supercars on the planet! You can even tell through watching the video how perfectly everything works and fits together. The doors shut so precisely and the engineering is just amazing. This guy now holds the world record at 277 mph average on two runs down a public road in Nevada or Arizona. He hits 280+ mph on the pass that was going downhill and went 275 going uphill. He set the world record in a different car but this model looks better than the newer ones to me! He is definitely raising the bar for the supercar manufacturers.

[Freddiebarrone]

We are proud of you Christian, you are one of the few things we Swedish peopel can be proud of today.

[JabbaFanzz]

Jay Leno talking to Christian von Koenigsegg?!

What a great picture.

[zehzahl]

FLAWLESS. My favorite supercar. Absolutely brilliant.

[mikhailpugliano]

Finally! I've been waiting for a good quality video like this about the trevita
