Christian von Koenigsegg oversees the final preparation of the first Koenigsegg One:1 Megacar ahead of The Geneva Motor Show. The One:1 attains a power to weight ratio of 1 horsepower to every 1 kg of curb weight through unprecedented weight saving measures.

This man is INCREDIBLE,.Tiny little family run supercar maker living at the absolute cutting edge of bespoke technology. The Americans buy some 20 year old Lotus chop it in half throw in a randomly tuned V8 the tell they world they own and look how beautiful their car is? This guy drew his own car from scratch, then built it, then the most astonishing thing? developed one of the WORLDS most power yet clean engines to run it. Truly OUTSTANDING.

I agree that this man is incredible, but don't knock Americans for some non sense that you're pulling out of your ass. The engine in the venom is not "randomly tuned." If it is, well that's even more amazing because a random tune is making more horsepower than you and your donkey make, x100.

Americans are profit motivated, supercars are not that profitable. Whatever country you're from....been on the moon ?? Build stealth fighter & bombers ? Even have a nuke powered aircraft carrier ? How about a series of rovers on Mars ? I didn't think so. Oh, sugarsaint,you're Black, no wonder you don't understand.

sugarsaint Whoa dude, chill. Now I shall take the neutral side here and weigh out some factual pros and cons of both the Koenigsegg here and the Hennessy. Hennessy Venom GT: Pros: -Better than a Veyron -Delicious V8 -Lotus chassis, therefore can turn nicely -270 mph in ~2 miles, less than a Veyron can reach its top speed, which is 5+ miles -Looks fucking awesome because the Lotus it was born from looks awesome -Price: Less than most hypercars within the 250+ mph range Cons: -Lotus chassis, therefore cannot qualify for top speed world record and counts as a modified Lotus -Looks like a Lotus Koenigsegg One:1 Pros: -Better than a Veyron -Delicious V8 -Advanced aerodynamics -Due to adv. aero, it would surpass the Hennessy in terms of top speed, possibly 275+ mph? -Possibly 270+ mph in ~2 miles, less than a Veyron can reach its top speed, which is 5+ miles -Original design Cons: -Slightly less usable for daily driving than its sibling, the Agera R (my favorite out of all of Koenigsegg's cars) -Price (duh) Both are awesome cars, so stop whining and shut the fuck up. This is a car YT channel, not some space-moon conspiracy or some shit.

If I could get my hands on some motorcycle 🏍 rims the weight in rims Would save off seconds plus your experience in gas electric is the future. If this were ever attempted on F1 cycles it be a breakthrough in modern technology and historical in the Moto world ..

Some of you may remember my last comment on an /INSIDE Koenigsegg video, telling Volkswagen Veyron fans to step up their shit talking game since the Agera R's power was featured on this show, and instead of finding anything new, or exciting from Bugatti, I find Mr. Christian von Koenigsegg, talking about his new car, a Megacar, producing damn near a megawatt of power, in a powerplant (pun intended) of a vehicle. Some of you hate on the aesthetic appeal of the car, failing to realize that while so much of CCX and Agera are present, it's lead to the evolution of this... beast. The CCX window curve, one of the lowest drag windshields on a production car, the agera's squatbar, which improves acceleration by stopping the rear from dropping on it's haunches, this doesn't just shatter the current hypercar mark of 1,000 hp; it throws a Evo XIII through it. I for one, cannot wait to see the shakedown videos.

I have so much respect for Christian. I like the fact that he himself is an engineering genius who thinks of new things, designs new things and they actually work. I love how the cars have massive torque from very little rpm to the redline. I liek the fact that every little part on this car is totaaly unique and is not found on any other car. And one thing what I like the most is that everything is made in sweden - its truly original supercar.

Love Christan's openness about the whole production process. One can see he's as excited about the project as everyone else after reading the specs. Saw the One:1 in the flesh at Geneva, looks great for a pre-production showcar. Can't wait to hear first impressions of people putting 1360 bhp through the rear tyres with their right foot. Good job /drive

Chriss Harris has talked about how much he enjoys the Veyron. I'm sure it's an astonishing car. I've only heard him talk about the Koenigsegg once at this year's Geneva Motor Show. A little company like Koenigsegg is producing something that will likely surpass what the VW Group could muster. Chris, drive the thing.

tjay84 You got it all wrong. Carbon fiber bends very well. It is just very stiff. It is very flexible, but it does not like impacts. It has 5 times the stiffness to weight over for example titanium and that is why it is used. Takes up less space to create the same stiffness plus it weighs less than metals.

He always has been. Back in the late 90's (98/99) I emailed them back then and asked for high res pictures, and actually got them. They have always been very proud of the car and development. I'm surprised Wikipedia doesn't have pictures or writeup of the earlier versions.

It's incredible, what Christian Von Konigsegg achieved, in auto industry !!! A man that came from nothing, to built an exceptional car brand. In all aspects, of an automobile. Design, power, safety, performance, inovation, technology, you name it. How that, is possible for such a small brand with limited ressources !?!?!? It proves that, even today, we can still dream about doing different, from stablished giant companys, and shake them up, doing better even, if ower dreams came from nothing. Well done Chirstean, what ever will be, the future, You are already an unforgetable legend. Thank you, for that 👍👍👍👍

I'd prefer it more so if Koenigsegg would keep the One:1 out of the pointless top speed dick swinging contests just because it will be compared by idiots to an overrated garbage tuner car and I do not want this masterpiece to be associated in any way with a glorified Exige. Just unleash this beast round the ring and let the top speed be an added bonus rather than the main focus. :D

rbeaton16 Got nothing against the Venom either, just annoyed by the people who think these two cars are on the same level. Tuner car will stay tuner no matter how many times they say "The only thing it has in common with the lotus is the doors and windshield." which is apparently a hard concept to grasp. :)
