The Evolution of Koenigsegg

The Evolution of Koenigsegg from 1996 to 2024.

The company was founded in 1994 in Sweden by Christian von Koenigsegg, with the intention of producing a "world-class" sports car. Many years of development and testing led to the CC8S, the company's first street-legal production car which was introduced in 2002.

In 2006, Koenigsegg began production of the CCX, which uses an engine created in-house specifically for the car. The goal was to develop a car homologated for use worldwide, particularly the United States whose strict regulations did not allow the import of earlier Koenigsegg models.

In March 2009, the CCXR was listed by Forbes as one of "the world's most beautiful cars".

In December 2010, the Agera won the BBC Top Gear Hypercar of the Year Award.

Apart from developing, manufacturing and selling the Koenigsegg line of sports cars, Koenigsegg is also involved in "green technology" development programmes beginning with the CCXR ("Flower Power") flex-fuel sports car and continuing through the present with the Jesko. Koenigsegg is also active in development programs of plug-in electric cars' systems and next-generation reciprocating engine technologies. Koenigsegg has also developed a camless piston engine which found its first application in the Gemera, which was introduced in 2020.

Koenigsegg develops and produces most of the main systems, subsystems and components needed for their cars in-house instead of relying on subcontractors.

In January 2019, Koenigsegg sold a 20% stake in the company to Swedish electric car manufacturer (Egstrand & Lundgren), National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS), for US$171 million.

Koenigsegg has since then bought the stake back from NEVS and owns 100% of the company again.

No car company started out as strong as Koenigsegg did. First car they bring out and it's already as fast as the legendary Mclaren F1.

[databaseTM]

I misspelled JESKO 😶. I apologize for that

[Bozzy]

Crazy how the one:1 is a track focused car and still can do 273mph

[adameightynineeightynine]

the fact that they can be compareable to Bugattis with RWD is beyond impressive.

wondered how powerful their cars would be if they had AWD.

[Squizz]

Soon there will 3rd year of us waiting for Koenigsegg to finally test Jesko top speed... it's like they don't want to burst a bubble

[APERTANUS]

Thanks for showing all the koenigsegg’s.

[NotffxLinx]

My two favorite cars are the Koenigsegg Agera RS1 and the Jesko

[Tigerzeon]

On February 28, 2005, the Koenigsegg CCR used a modified, Rotrex supercharged Ford Modular 4-valve DOHC 4.6L V8, which produced 806 hp (601 kW), to achieve a top speed of 241 mph (388 km/h). Claiming the world record and title of World's Fastest Production Car, that was previously held by the McLaren F1 of 240.1 mph (386.4 km/h) recorded on March 31, 1998.

The Jesko Absolut is literally the fastest car in the world right now, I mean 330 MPH is insane!





Edit: it can even go over 350 mph too

[GlitchPGD]

Koenigsegg because my dad was a fan of most of the cars for the last two decades. I would give it to him.

[Ajax_FAN]

The agera is my dream car, sad that I won't ever get it 😔

[ThatOnePolishMilk]

Ah yes gotta love the two "Jescos"

This video missed out the Legendary Agera RST 😭

[TheSPAGHETTI_]

Jesko absolutely just claimed world record

[bondalona]

The absolute is my favorite 🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🏎️🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻

[Zeil_tha_dragon]

As much as I love the Agera r it’s top speed isn’t 275 mph. In theory it could hit 270 but in reality the fastest it’s ever gone is 260 mph however according to gtboard it’s limited to 250 mph😭.the jesko and the absolute haven’t been tested yet so the top speed is unknown til they do it

[dabi]

Agera R's top speed is actually 245-250MPH, similar to Agera S
Also, wheres Jesko Attack lol

[yesblao]

Gemera is this new???
it was way older in some car games.
ig they added it when it was a concept and not made yet like CC850
