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 manufactured to comply with global safeness and environment restrictions, particularly to get into america car market. To market cars in the US many modifications were designed to the look of the CCR; the previously used Ford Modular engine was replaced with a Koenigsegg engine made to operate on 91 octane gasoline, readily available in america, and to meet up with the Californian emission benchmarks.The name CCX is an abbreviation for Competition Coup? X, the X commemorating the 10th anniversary (X being the Roman numeral for ten) of the conclusion and test drive of the first CC vehicle in 1996.

There were 49 CCX-Series cars produced between 2006 and 2010 (30 CCX, 9 CCXR, 6 CCX/CCXR Release, 2 CCXR Special Edition and 2 CCXR Trevita).
