Koenigsegg - How It's Made Supercar
The company was founded in 1994 in Sweden by Christian von Koenigsegg with the intention of producing a "world-class" supercar. Many years of development and prototyping led to the company's first street-legal production car delivery in 2002.
In 2006 Koenigsegg began production of the CCX which uses an engine created in-house especially for that vehicle. The CCX is street-legal in most countries including the United States.
Apart from developing manufacturing and selling the Koenigsegg line of supercars Koenigsegg is also involved in "green technology" development programmes beginning with the CCXR ("Flower Power") flex-fuel supercar and continuing through the present with the Agera R. Koenigsegg is also active in development programs of plug-in electric cars' systems and next-generation reciprocating engine technologies. Koenigsegg also is working on a camless piston engine for the Regera.
