The Koenigsegg CCX is the
latest supercar from Koenigsegg. CCX is an abbreviation
for Competition Coupe X. The X commemorates the 10th
anniversary of the completion and test drive of the
first CC vehicle in 1996. The CCX is intended to be
more suitable for the U.S. market and thus engineered
to comply with US regulations. The CCX is powered by
a Koenigsegg designed and assembled, all aluminium,
4700 cm³ DOHC 32-valve V8 based on the Ford Modular
engine architecture enhanced with twin Rotrex centrifugal
superchargers with response system, 1.2 bar boost pressure
and an 8.2:1 compression ratio. The engine produces
806 hp (601 kW) and 678 lbf.ft (920 Nm) on 91 octane
(U.S. rating) gasoline, 850 hp (634 kW) on 96 octane
(Euro rating) gasoline and 900 hp (671 kW) on biofuel.
