Vehicle Background

Overview

The Koenigsegg CC850 is a modern reimagining of Koenigsegg’s first production car — the CC8S, originally launched in 2002. Revealed in 2022 to commemorate both 20 years of Koenigsegg production and Christian von Koenigsegg’s 50th birthday, the CC850 serves as both a tribute and a technological statement.

Although inspired by the design and spirit of the original CC8S, the CC850 is an entirely new car — built with Koenigsegg’s latest carbon fibre monocoque, advanced materials, and the brand’s signature blend of extreme performance and innovation.

Production is strictly limited to 70 units worldwide, symbolising 20 years of Koenigsegg and 50 years of Christian von Koenigsegg — making it one of the most exclusive hypercars ever produced.


Performance

The CC850 is powered by Koenigsegg’s acclaimed 5.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, derived from the Jesko but uniquely tuned for this model.

  • Engine: 5.0-litre twin-turbo V8 (Koenigsegg in-house design)
  • Power Output: 1,385 PS (1,366 bhp) on E85 biofuel / 1,185 PS (1,168 bhp) on standard petrol
  • Torque: 1,385 Nm (1,021 lb-ft)
  • Transmission: Koenigsegg’s revolutionary Engage Shift System (ESS) – a 9-speed transmission capable of operating as both an automatic and an engaged gated manual with a physical clutch and shifter
  • Drivetrain: Rear-wheel drive

Performance statistics are extraordinary:

  • 0–100 km/h in around 2.7 seconds
  • Top speed estimated beyond 400 km/h (249 mph)

The CC850’s power-to-weight ratio is nearly 1:1, thanks to a lightweight structure of carbon fibre and aluminium, ensuring phenomenal acceleration and handling precision.


Design

The CC850’s styling pays direct homage to Koenigsegg’s first production car, the CC8S, while blending contemporary aerodynamic and technical sophistication.

  • Exterior: The car retains the clean, organic silhouette of the original CC series, with modern refinements such as updated lighting elements, a more sculpted front fascia, and a sleek, minimalist tail design.
  • Signature Doors: Koenigsegg’s signature dihedral synchro-helix doors remain a defining feature, offering both visual drama and practical ease of access.
  • Body Construction: Full carbon fibre monocoque chassis with integrated roll-over protection and removable roof panels for open-top driving.
  • Colour & Finish: Each CC850 is fully customisable, with exposed carbon options, metallic finishes, and heritage-inspired hues — allowing owners to recreate the look of the original CC8S or commission entirely bespoke designs.

The overall aesthetic is one of elegant minimalism, merging heritage cues with the unmistakable modern Koenigsegg design language.


Driving Technology

The Engage Shift System (ESS) is the CC850’s most remarkable innovation — a world-first in automotive engineering.

  • Dual-Mode Transmission: ESS allows the car to operate as a 9-speed automatic or switch seamlessly to a 6-speed gated manual, complete with a physical clutch pedal and traditional H-pattern gear lever.
  • Adaptive Gear Ratios: Depending on the selected driving mode, the ESS varies the gear ratios to optimise for performance or efficiency.
  • Chassis Systems: Adaptive suspension, active ride height control, and advanced traction management ensure the car remains stable and predictable even under extreme power.
  • Brakes: Carbon-ceramic discs with multi-piston calipers provide exceptional stopping performance.
  • Steering: Electrically assisted steering fine-tuned for feedback and precision.

This combination of analogue engagement and cutting-edge automation defines the CC850 as a “modern classic” — a car that connects the driver to the machine in ways few hypercars can.


Interior & Craftsmanship

The CC850’s cabin continues Koenigsegg’s philosophy of functional minimalism combined with exquisite craftsmanship.

  • Design: A symmetrical layout inspired by the CC8S, with modern digital instrumentation and tactile mechanical controls.
  • Transmission Interface: The exposed gated manual gearshift is a centrepiece — a meticulously engineered mechanism that operates in both manual and automatic modes.
  • Materials: Premium leather, carbon fibre, brushed aluminium, and precision-milled switchgear dominate the interior environment.
  • Instrumentation: A fully digital driver display designed to mimic traditional analogue dials, blending nostalgia with modern clarity.
  • Roof: Detachable carbon roof panels allow the car to transition seamlessly from coupé to roadster.

Every surface is handcrafted in-house at Koenigsegg’s facility in Ängelholm, Sweden, ensuring the highest levels of quality and attention to detail.


Heritage & Philosophy

The CC850 celebrates Koenigsegg’s journey from a small, ambitious Swedish automaker to one of the world’s leading hypercar manufacturers. It is both a tribute and a technological showcase — merging the simplicity of early Koenigsegg design with the complex innovation of the Jesko era.

It embodies Christian von Koenigsegg’s belief in mechanical purity, where analogue engagement and digital precision coexist harmoniously. In essence, the CC850 is a hypercar built for enthusiasts who still value the tactile joy of driving.


Place in the Koenigsegg Line-up

The CC850 sits between the Jesko Absolut and the Regera in Koenigsegg’s range, combining the lightweight focus of the former with the luxury and comfort of the latter.

It is not designed for ultimate speed records, but rather as a driver’s hypercar — a spiritual successor to the brand’s origins and a celebration of mechanical art. With its limited production and revolutionary transmission, the CC850 is already considered one of the most collectible and technically fascinating Koenigseggs ever built.
