He didn't say anything...

[@Addimotive]

CvK is a true inspiration! I’m so thankful I was able to meet him in California a year ago and have a quick chat with him about my go kart build. Not too many car companies where the CEO is so in tune with the design and engineering that he can tell you exactly why a certain bolt or material is used in a particular area of the car. Thank you Christian for showing others it is possible if you work hard!

[@alberttorns]

ur so lucky

[@gabethebaeb_5881]

I found this very inspirational. I've always wanted to start a car company from when I was young. I'd love to design cars from the ground up and see how they perform. I want to make a car company that is full on electrification, affordable for everyone, and even fun to drive. I want to be sure that everyone has an car that is environmentally friendly, safe, and even fun to drive! That is my dream as of now. I'd also love to take my dream even further with a ultra luxury electric car brand as well.

[@michaelmerklin9360]

Hallo, I hope you feel good! My name is Michael and I also have this Vision in my mind! I already started slow. My Idea is to create a new car brand for the future ( of course electric! ) Its a very interesting area I think! Maybe, if you would like we can work together and create the ultimate car brand in the future. Best regards, Michael

2 tips if you ever start a car company: Cut the costs somewhere such as keys headlights and rims Tune cheap cars or use engines of other cars(stock or tuned) Once you earnd enough money start making your own engines

[@elvpse]

hope you succeed and good luck!

[@TheBunnyDeveloper]

No new car company can really compete with the Detroit three or Toyota, they've got it all set out and a cemented customer base. But- you can find a niche in the car industry which is good for new companies!

[@TheOnlyRaceEngineer]

The best, most realistic and straight forward advice I've ever heard.

[@tyr3ll922]

Thank you for all the advice

[@joshpeck5842]

Everyone’s on here in the comments wanting to have their own company but don’t forget Christian went through a lot of heartache and it took years to even come up with a prototype. Not to mention his dad was a business man and so was Christian and he took another path while this dream was on the back burner, so with that said I’m not saying don’t go for your dream but just keep those things in mind when you come across the roadblocks. If you want it bad enough, you’ll have it. Just look at Christian, he did whatever it took and had what it takes to be at his level, he’s a great example of how passion and determination can get you anywhere, look at Enzo and ferrucio, those guys had relatively humble beginnings, and see where they are today and the legacy they left behind

[@molinasgarage4346]

Thank You Sir. Let my Vision Become Reality

[@kayrams1792]

Your my inspiration my man. I am more inspired by people with small to medium companies than large industrials like Toyota. If you can manage to produce something of quality and value to other people its an achievement. It does not matter how many units you produce. There is more to go around for all of us than being obsessed and reliant on few manufacturers.

man why do old people hate cars that have actual engines?

[@ivar4355]

All I want to do is start producing simple and cheap cars, looking something like the 90s vw vento or the 80s volvo 740. Biggest engine would be something like a 2L inline 4 down to 1.4, maby 1.0 in smaller vento models... as little electronics as possible, but still with fuel injection, yeah you get the drill

[@TheLexa053]

I actually want to make cars as well (like make my own cars and tune cars from Ford and Škoda) and Koenigsegg is legendary company in my eyes. In 1995 it was just a small company which no one knew about and now it's a main rival to Bugatti (even better)...

[@peliswasihlobo6717]

What I like about koenigsegg AB automotive it doesn't copy like other brands they have their own stuff like free valve,mouted air wing,one to one program 1360 hp =1360kg,nd their newest brakes on the jesko 300 nd their regera active wing thats efficiently better than the veyron s wing not that it's good

It's kinda cool that the 2 cars behind him : #135 Agera RS 1MW "Valhall" and #137 Agera RS 1MW "Draken" are owned by Jeffrey Cheng and Dan Kang. Both cars are kept in a giant mancave in LA along with several other Koenigseggs owned by them and others. That place is nuts : kzbin.info/www/bejne/garYoXSId9-hl5o
