Pretty crazy looking. I like the Koenigsegg line up of cars. Probably because the streets of Vancouver aren't flooded with them.

0-248 mph in less than 20 seconds and single-speeder that's scary

I wonder why they still put V8 in it?
Compare to electric motor, internal combustion engines are very inefficient. 70% of power generated are simply converted to heat as energy loss due to friction and all that. Not to mention carrying V8 + transmission + fuel tank + exhaust + turbocharger + everything else is very heavy and space consuming.
Just follow the path of Tesla/Fisker once it gets to that level.

Why is the McLaren P1 a V8?
I wonder why Ferrari put in a V12 when these extra cylinders are just too heavy and space consuming.
Didn't Fisker go bankrupt?

I think Koenigsegg finally going to redesign the entire car. It's 2015 so it's about time. Because I believe the every single Koenigsegg lineup was just modified CC8S. Including Agera R or ONE:1.
2002 Koenigsegg CC8S |
