The Koenigsegg CCX is a mid-engined sports car built by Koenigsegg Automotive AB. The job began with the purpose of making a global car, designed and made to comply with global safe practices and environment rules, particularly to type in the United States car market. To market cars in the US many alterations were designed to the design of the CCR; the used Ford Modular engine unit was replaced with a Koenigsegg engine made to operate on 91 octane fuel, readily available in the United States, and to meet up with the Californian emission specifications.The name CCX is an abbreviation for Competition Coup? X, the X commemorating the 10th wedding anniversary (X being the Roman numeral for ten) of the completion and test drive of the first CC vehicle in 1996.
The CCX was revealed at the 2006 Geneva Engine Show, sports body adjustments to meet US regulations and a new 4.7 L twin supercharged V8 engine with the capacity of producing 811 PS (596 kW; 800 hp) at 7000 rpm and 920 N?m (679 lb?feet) at 5700 rpm of torque while running on 91 octane gas. There have been 49 CCX-Series autos produced between 2006 and 2010 (30 CCX, 9 CCXR, 6 CCX/CCXR Release, 2 CCXR Special Release and 2 CCXR Trevita). One of these was a CCX used for Crash assessments and one is still a manufacturer test car. CCX cars have later been upgraded to be CCXR-spec.
