The Koenigsegg CCX is a mid-engined sports vehicle built by Koenigsegg Automotive AB. The project began with the aim of making a worldwide car, designed and constructed to adhere to global safety and environment polices, particularly to enter into america car market. To sell cars in america many alterations were designed to the design of the CCR; the previously used Ford Modular engine was replaced by a Koenigsegg engine designed to operate on 91 octane energy, readily available in america, and to meet up with the Californian emission expectations.The name CCX can be an abbreviation for Competition Coup? X, the X commemorating the 10th anniversary (X being the Roman numeral for ten) of the completion and test drive of the first CC vehicle in 1996.
The CCX was launched at the 2006 Geneva Electric motor Show, sporting body modifications to meet US rules and a new 4.7 L twin supercharged V8 engine unit with the capacity of producing 811 PS (596 kW; 800 hp) at 7000 rpm and 920 N?m (679 lb?foot) at 5700 rpm of torque while jogging on 91 octane gasoline. There were 49 CCX-Series autos produced between 2006 and 2010 (30 CCX, 9 CCXR, 6 CCX/CCXR Edition, 2 CCXR Special Release and 2 CCXR Trevita). One of these was a CCX used for Crash lab tests and one continues to be a stock test car. CCX automobiles have later been improved to become CCXR-spec.
