From powertrain to safety — every part must enable the car to deliver the best possible performance. Even the beautiful form of a Koenigsegg has a purpose. Our cars are wind tunnel tested during development and whilst a Koenigsegg is beautiful to the eye, the exterior design also serves a higher purpose, being the most streamlined design available that will accommodate the powertrain, comfort and performance requirements that customers demand of a Koenigsegg car.
When you build a car as powerful as a Koenigsegg, you must remain mindful of the safety of your customers and their surroundings. Given this, we take every measure possible to ensure that customers feel confident in their vehicle whenever they take the wheel. A Koenigsegg is lightweight and balanced, making it both agile and predictable. Of course, the cars are also equipped with all the modern passive and active safety features that one would expect.
Furthermore, we subject all Koenigsegg models to rigorous crash testing to ensure they meet or exceed world standards.
In fact, our cars have been subjected to 18 different crash tests during their development and still counting. Yes, it hurts us to crash test our cars, but as per our philosophy at Koenigsegg, there are no shortcuts. Everything from the careful lay up of pre-preg carbon fiber to the interior of a Koenigsegg is meticulously hand crafted.
Only the finest materials are selected and hand-finished by skilled artisans. Our highly trained staff scrutinize every detail to ensure that we continue to meet the most extreme quality standards, again keeping the Koenigsegg philosophy intact. The fruit of this philosophy, this painstaking attention to detail, is a meticulously crafted and prepared car with extreme performance.
At Koenigsegg, we always strive for the best performance and the highest standards in the world. We strive for this because we know our customers expect only the best from a Koenigsegg and we truly stand by our product.
This is our tradition and commitment, that has made the company we are today. The Koenigsegg way. The Spirit of Performance. There is ample room for the composite workshop, engine development and testing, a pre- and final assembly hall, a paint shop, research and development facilities, as well as vehicle and parts storage.

Many Koenigsegg customers have enjoyed the possibility of landing their private jet on the runway just outside the doors of the factory. There is also a helipad in front of the main entrance for those who wish to travel by helicopter.
Each and every Koenigsegg has a premium price, but then each and every Koenigsegg has been painstakingly built by a select group of automotive artisans to the highest possible standards. At Koenigsegg, we are able to fabricate intricate, hand-made metal and carbon fiber components in our own hi-tech production facilities.
We also source specialist components from a network of dedicated suppliers and partners — most of which are based in Sweden. However, the automaker's first production model--the CC8S--didn't arrive until The company now produces about 10 cars per year, priced in the seven-figure range. Chinese conglomerate Evergrande , which also has a controlling interest in electric automaker NEVS, now owns a percent stake of Koenigsegg.
