When is comes to flat our horsepower and intimidation there are few cars that carry this role appropriately, but this right here the Koenigsegg Competition Coupe GT? It takes it to a whole other level. Believe it or not this car was down tuned from over 1,000 to 600+ HP in order to comply with race regulations. But the fascination shouldnt stop there. There is also a Bio Fuel Powered CCXR! Yes, there is a version of this vehicle that is environmentally friendly and features even more spectacular performance than the standard CCX.
These two almost conflicting results are made possible due to the simple fact that the ethanol in biofuel has the positive side effect of cooling the combustion chambers, as well as a higher octane value, well over 100 RON, which gives the high power. Due to the fact that the biofuel has higher octane and cooling characteristics, the power has gone up to 1018 hp at 7200 rpm and the torque to 1060 nm at 6100 rpm.
Yes, it is ridiculous, more photos after the b
Koenigsegg has created a new race car - the CCGT, based on the production CC-model range. The CCGT complies with the ACO and FIA GT1 regulations.The CCGT engine is based on the Koenigsegg CCX production engine with the superchargers removed but enlarged to 5.0 liter.The reliability of the race engine is expected be exceptional as it is based on the proven strength and durability of the significantly more powerful road car engine.The minimum weight allowed for a GTI race car is 1,100 kg and most manufacturers struggle to meet this target, having to undergo massive weight saving programs.Due to the fact the Koenigsegg CC cars are very light and stiff in road configuration, the racing CCGT weighs in at just under an astounding 1,000 kg. This gives the possibility to place 100 kg of ballast freely within the car structure, still following the set rules. This should give Koenigsegg an interesting advantage over the competition.The CCGT has very short overhangs, which could be seen as an iss
