2010 Koenigsegg CCX
T here’s a new and attractive Scandinavian alternative for those with a need for speed. It’s the Koenigsegg CCX, an 800-plus horsepower supercar that delivers on performance – like nothing else on four wheels.
Capable of more than 245 mph, this carbon fiber and Kevlar supercar, which is adaptable for street or track use, the CCX also is built to comply with the toughest emission regulations in the world. And that’s something for the Swedish builder.
The Koenigsegg CCX, which features scissor-style doors and a removable hardtop, is derived from the company’s CC model, but possesses a more aggressive stance and unique styling cues. Unlike the CC, the CCX was built to compete in the world supercar market – a daring leap for this relatively small car maker. Expect to pay plenty for this Swedish supercar, however.
The cost is $650,000, give or take, and about two dozen cars a year are expected to be produced, making the Koenigsegg one very limited sports car. But good news for the rest of us as Koenigsegg just bought Saab, and will hopefully inject a little spirit and update the styling of the more affordable Swede. That way we can spend in the neighborhood of $45K and say we're driving a Koenigsegg. Technically, at least. –LS
