      Koenigsegg CCX
      The Koenigsegg CCX is a mid-engined roadster from Swedish car manufacturer Koenigsegg, to replace the Koenigsegg CCR. CCX is an abbreviation for Competition Coupe X, the X commemorating the 10th anniversary, being the Roman numeral for ten, of the completion and test drive of the first CC vehicle in 1996. The CCX is intended to be suitable for the United States market and thus engineered to comply with US regulations. A base model CCX costs approximately US$540,000 (€370,000) but with all optional extras the car costs US$610,000 (€415,000).The CCX was first unveiled on February 28, 2006 at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show although its existence was announced earlier. The CCX is also available as the CCXR, the difference being that CCXR's engine is tuned to run on biofuel. The different fuel

      Koenigsegg Edition CCXR
      [click on a specific area of image to enlarge that section] What happens when Swedes get a supercar, then bump an 888 horsepower 4.7 liter engine to a 1,081 horsepower 5.0 liter monstrosity that can go from 0-60mph in under 3 seconds accelerating to a top speed of 250mph?

      Geneva Motor Show 2008: Koenigsegg unleashes the Edition
      We were all set to go shoot the Koenigsegg CCX and CCXR Edition cars in their exotic black and red kit, but what we found instead was this carbon fiber goddess. There's nothing quite like a raw carbon fiber finish to make the visceral reaction to driving a supercar more palpable. Still, we would have liked to have seen the black and red ones too. Either way, this Swedish Siren still scores highly on the must-have meter. Like the "normal" CCX and CCXR, the Edition models are powered by supercharged V8s, but their displacement has been bumped from 4.7-liters to a full 5.0, good enough for 888HP in the CCX and a non-Edition-matching 1,018HP in the E85-burning CCXR. Both cars are said to be good for a 0-60 sprint of just under three seconds, but the "R" can top out at least five MPH higher tha

      Koenigsegg unveils limited Edition CCX and CCXR models
      Koenigsegg claims that customer demand has led them to produce a limited edition version of its CCX and CCXR supercars. They’ll be called - get this - the Koenigsegg Edition CCX and CCXR. Pretty creative, huh? Regardless, we all know Koeni cars have the goods to defend their funny names with peerless performance. What makes these Edition models truly special is, of course, more power thanks to a bump in displacement for Koenigsegg’s V8 from 4.7L to 5.0L. When fitted with its pair of superchargers, the Edition CCX produces 888 horsepower (up from 806 HP) and the CCXR that can also run on E85 ethanol produces the same 1,018 horsepower as the standard model. Both the Edition CCX and CCXR actually have similar performance figures according to Koenigsegg, each running to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds. Keep the pedal to the floor, however, and the CCXR with its higher octane fuel will begin to pull away from the CCX, eventually topping out at 250+ mph. Price of entry for these two limi

      Koenigsegg CCXR Special Edition Biofuel Supercar
      It's hard to believe that a car a little more powerful than the average Bugatti Veyron (if not, reportedly, as well engineered) would run purely on E85 ethanol fuel, but here it is. Leaving aside the...

      Koenigsegg CCXR
      Когато повечето от нас чуем думата “биогориво”, си представяме несъвършен разтвор, който не е достатъчно добър, за да задвижи кола. Но явно сме грешали (или поне аз), защото колата Koenigsegg CCXR коренно промени мнението ми по въпроса. Автомобилът е просто срахотен: Малка маса V8 двигател Ускорява от 0-100kph за 2.9 секунди 1018 конски сили Всъщност тези страхотни характеристики са постигнати благодарение на E85 биогориво. Само сега, цената на возилото е 1.5 милиона евро. Побързайте !!!

      Koenigsegg (revisited) CCXR Special Edition: Biofueled This Time Around…
      You might remember the Koenigsegg CCGT we saw earlier this month, well what you see above you is one of the first renders of the upcoming Koenigsegg CCX-R special edition. Whats the difference this time around? Well ladies and gents, this bad boy will be biofuel-powered. Meaning, this red-on-black Special Edition model rocking a cast-aluminium V8 engine with sequential multipoint fuel injection and twin rotrex centrifugal superchargers is not only green, but also fast as hell. Thanks to its biofuel having higher octane and cooling attributes, this Buggatti-dwarfing supercar pushes out 1018 HP at 7200 rpm and 780 lb-ft of torque at 6100 rpm. Check out the official press release after the jump as well as more photos. (more…) Related PostsPicture Me Rolling, Koenigsegg CCGTE3’s Halo 3 trailer!!!The Halo 3 Edition Zune…

      Picture Me Rolling, Koenigsegg CCGT
      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

It's been more than five years since our backsides were intimate with the carbon-fiber seat of the only supercar made in Sweden, the Koenigsegg. That's probably long enough ago that you're saying out loud, "Koenigswhat??" To bring you up to speed, here's a Koenigsegg primer:

      Green Super Car: Koenigsegg CCXR Flower Power
      When thinking about supercars, one of the last things that spring to mind are their environmental friendliness.Even though the very low and exclusive production volume of Koenigsegg can hardly be considered to have a measurable impact on the C02 problem that global society is facing, it is an impressive statement that even a small and extreme company like Koenigsegg can afford to develop environmentally focussed solutions.By following conscientious and forward thinking strategies, Koenigsegg has managed to create the Bio Fuel Powered CCXR - environmentally friendly 1200 with 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.

      Koenigsegg CCGT
      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
