The Koenigsegg CC is a mid engine supercar, built to excel both on the road and on the racetrack. It provides an uninhibited racing experience and still enables fully comfortable long distance traveling.
It is currently the fastest street-legal car in production, with a top speed exceeding 390 km/h and an acceleration that takes it up to 100 km/h in less than 3.5 seconds. The CC is made using state-of-the-art materials and technology; both body and chassis are made of carbonfiber, reinforced with Kevlar and aluminum honeycomb.
The Koenigsegg developed suspension system, modeled from Formula One racing, has been judged by expert test-drivers to provide better handling than any competing supercar. Its supercharged engine delivers 655 horsepower and a torque of 750 Nm. The design of the CC creates an impression of strength and flowing motion, and perfect aerodynamics have been achieved without compromising this aggressive beauty. A hardtop roof-panel, which is easily removed and stored under the front hood, covers the luxurious interior. The leather and aluminum fitted cabin incorporates all the top equipment for comfort and security.
New in 2002 model
For the year 2002 some minor changes have been made to the CC. The front headlights have been redesigned, and the car now has xenon lights in milled aluminum casings. The lights are covered to optimize aerodynamics. The rear hood is slightly reshaped and lowered, in order to enhance the streamlined characteristics and to reduce drag. The customer can now choose to eliminate the rear wing to reduce drag and facilitate a higher top speed. The front bumper has a built in wing similar to that used on the latest Le Mans cars, which provides downforce and great airflow to the cooler.
