Koenigsegg

Koenigsegg Automotive AB (Swedish: [ˈkø̌ːnɪɡsɛɡ] ) is a Swedish manufacturer of high-performance sports cars based in Ängelholm, Skåne County. Founded in 1994 by Christian von Koenigsegg, the company is noted for its high degree of vertical integration, developing core systems—such as engines, transmissions, and software—entirely in-house. The manufacturer has set several world records for production car performance, most notably with the CCR and the Agera RS, the latter of which achieved a two-way average top speed of 447 km/h (277.8 mph) in 2017. Koenigsegg is a pioneer in automotive technology, introducing innovations such as the Freevalve camless engine, and the Light Speed Transmission (LST). As of 2026, Koenigsegg's production includes the Jesko hypercar, the four-seat Gemera, and the CC850. The company operates from a major production and R&D complex at a former Swedish Air Force base and employs approximately 850 staff.
