koenigsegg ccr

##title##
Debuting at the 2004 Geneva Auto Show, the CCR is quite similar to the CC8S and like its predecessor it features dihedral synchro-helix actuation doors. It has, however. various improvements. An upgraded body with a larger front splitter for optimized downforce, tweaked headlight arrangement and revised rear end. New larger tires and wheels equipped with larger brakes. Upgraded suspension and a more powerful engine with twin Rotrex compressors, producing 806 PS (593 kW; 795 hp) at 6900 rpm and 920 N·m (680 lb·ft) of torque at 5700 rpm.

To honour the Swedish Fighter Jet Squadron No. 1, (Johan röd) which had occupied the current facility of Koenigsegg, the CCR is adorned with a symbol of a ghost, the symbol of the squadron.

At its debut, Koenigsegg claimed the CCR to be the fastest production car with a theoretical top speed of more than 395 km/h (245 mph). Said claim was put to test on February 28, 2005, at Italy's Nardò Ring where a team of five Koenigsegg engineers and mechanics together with founder Christian von Koenigsegg ran a standard CCR, driven by Loris Bicocchi to a top speed of 387.87 km/h (241.01 mph), breaking the fastest production car record that was held for 8 years by the McLaren F1. However in April 2005, not long after the CCR claimed the record, a prototype of the long awaited Bugatti Veyron took the crown with a top speed over 400 km/h (249 mph) with the production model reaching 408.47 km/h (253.81 mph).
