class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Koenigsegg has unveiled the <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1<\/strong> at Monterey Car Week 2026, bringing the spirit of its long-lost CCGT racing programme to the road in an extraordinarily focused new hypercar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Based on the <strong>Koenigsegg CC850<\/strong>, the CCGT1 combines a twin-turbocharged V8, rear-wheel drive, extensive racing-inspired aerodynamics and a new sequential-shift system. Its headline figures are equally dramatic: <strong>1,280 hp on pump fuel and up to 1,600 hp on E85<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.koenigsegg.com\/model\/ccgt1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Koenigsegg CCGT1 2026<\/a><\/strong> is about more than horsepower. The Swedish manufacturer has developed the car around high-speed stability and circuit performance while retaining enough road-car usability to make it a genuine road-legal hypercar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only <strong>70 examples<\/strong> are planned, and all have already been allocated. That makes the <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 unveiled at Monterey Car Week<\/strong> one of the most exclusive new cars presented during this year&#8217;s event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_the_Koenigsegg_CCGT1\"><\/span><strong>What Is the Koenigsegg CCGT1?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 hypercar<\/strong> is a road-legal performance car inspired by the company&#8217;s original CCGT GT1 racing project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The original CCGT was developed for GT1 competition but never got the opportunity to compete after changes to the racing regulations effectively ended the programme. The new CCGT1 takes inspiration from that unfinished chapter while using modern Koenigsegg technology underneath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rather than recreating the original race car, Koenigsegg has built the CCGT1 around the <strong>Koenigsegg CC850<\/strong> platform. This gives the new model access to a proven high-performance architecture while allowing the company to develop a significantly more track-focused body and aerodynamic package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The result is a car that sits somewhere between a sophisticated road-going hypercar and a road-legal interpretation of a GT racing machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/rideandtech.com\/blog\/ferrari-cz26-monterey-car-week-2026\/\">Ferrari CZ26 Unveiled at Monterey Car Week 2026<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Koenigsegg_CCGT1_Design_Inspired_by_a_Racing_Legacy\"><\/span><strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 Design: Inspired by a Racing Legacy<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 design<\/strong> immediately separates the car from the CC850 on which it is based.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although the two cars share their underlying technical architecture, the CCGT1 receives unique body panels and a substantially more aggressive aerodynamic treatment. The proportions and surfaces are shaped around airflow and downforce rather than simply creating a more dramatic appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The car&#8217;s visual connection to the original <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT<\/strong> is particularly important. The CCGT1 is intended as a modern tribute to that racing project, giving Koenigsegg an opportunity to revisit an idea that never reached its intended competitive destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, the CCGT1 retains the unmistakable engineering-focused character associated with modern Koenigsegg hypercars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Koenigsegg_CCGT1_Aerodynamics_and_Downforce\"><\/span><strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 Aerodynamics and Downforce<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/rideandtech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/https___hypebeast.com_image_2026_08_14_koenigsegg-ccgt1-revives-gt1-racing-spirit-on-road-5.avif\" alt=\"Koenigsegg CCGT1 rear view showing large active wing and aerodynamic design\" class=\"wp-image-927\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rideandtech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/https___hypebeast.com_image_2026_08_14_koenigsegg-ccgt1-revives-gt1-racing-spirit-on-road-5.avif 800w, https:\/\/rideandtech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/https___hypebeast.com_image_2026_08_14_koenigsegg-ccgt1-revives-gt1-racing-spirit-on-road-5-300x200.avif 300w, https:\/\/rideandtech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/https___hypebeast.com_image_2026_08_14_koenigsegg-ccgt1-revives-gt1-racing-spirit-on-road-5-768x512.avif 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The CCGT1 uses a large rear wing and extensive aerodynamic elements to generate high-speed downforce.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 aerodynamics<\/strong> are among the most important aspects of the car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead of relying solely on engine power, Koenigsegg has engineered the body around high-speed aerodynamic performance. The car features a large active rear wing, a substantial front splitter, a race-inspired underbody and a large rear diffuser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Koenigsegg claims the CCGT1 can generate up to <strong>800 kg of downforce at 250 km\/h<\/strong>, or roughly 1,764 pounds at 155 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The active rear wing can automatically adjust through different aerodynamic modes, allowing the car to balance low drag, braking performance and high-downforce requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This makes <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 downforce<\/strong> a major part of the car&#8217;s performance philosophy. The goal isn&#8217;t simply to produce a huge top-speed number; it is to make the available power usable when the car is driven aggressively on a circuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Koenigsegg_CCGT1_Engine_and_Power\"><\/span><strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 Engine and Power<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the centre of the <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 engine<\/strong> is a twin-turbocharged V8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The engine produces:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>1,280 hp on pump fuel<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>1,600 hp on E85<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Twin-turbocharged V8 configuration<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rear-wheel drive<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 power<\/strong> figure of 1,600 hp on E85 places the car firmly among the most extreme road-legal hypercars in production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the power figures need context. The CCGT1 has not been developed simply as a horsepower showcase. Its chassis, aerodynamic package, transmission and braking systems have all been designed around extracting performance from that enormous output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The use of E85 also gives owners the option of accessing the engine&#8217;s maximum advertised output, while pump fuel provides the lower 1,280-hp figure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Koenigsegg_CCGT1_Transmission_A_New_Approach_to_Shifting\"><\/span><strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 Transmission: A New Approach to Shifting<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most interesting engineering features of the CCGT1 is its transmission technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The car uses Koenigsegg&#8217;s nine-speed <strong>Light Speed Transmission<\/strong>, but the CCGT1 introduces a new <strong>Koenigsegg Sequential Shift<\/strong> system designed to deliver a more race-car-like shifting experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The system allows clutchless gear changes using ignition cuts, similar in principle to the sequential systems used in racing applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Koenigsegg has also retained a clutch for taking off from a standstill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This gives the <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 transmission<\/strong> a very different character from the conventional automatic or dual-clutch systems found in many modern supercars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Koenigsegg_Sequential_Shift_Explained\"><\/span><strong>Koenigsegg Sequential Shift Explained<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Koenigsegg Sequential Shift<\/strong> system is essentially an evolution of the company&#8217;s existing transmission technology, adapted to give the CCGT1 a more focused driving experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During aggressive driving, the system can perform rapid clutchless gear changes while the driver controls the sequence. The concept is closer to the experience of a competition-oriented sequential gearbox than a conventional automatic transmission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Koenigsegg has also offered an optional <strong>Engage Shift System<\/strong> that provides a more traditional six-speed gated manual-style experience. The company has previously demonstrated this type of multi-mode transmission technology with the CC850.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That makes the CCGT1 particularly interesting for enthusiasts who still value mechanical interaction in an era when most extreme-performance cars are increasingly automated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_the_Koenigsegg_CCGT1_Have_a_Manual_Transmission\"><\/span><strong>Does the Koenigsegg CCGT1 Have a Manual Transmission?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The answer requires some clarification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The standard CCGT1 uses the <strong>Koenigsegg Sequential Shift<\/strong> system, which provides a sequential driving experience. The car can also be specified with Koenigsegg&#8217;s Engage Shift System, providing a gated six-speed manual-style interface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is different from simply installing a conventional six-speed manual gearbox into the car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The technology builds on Koenigsegg&#8217;s existing multi-mode transmission philosophy, combining different forms of driver interaction with the company&#8217;s Light Speed Transmission architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For enthusiasts, however, the important point is that Koenigsegg has deliberately retained a strong mechanical connection between driver and machine in one of its most advanced modern hypercars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Koenigsegg_CCGT1_and_the_CC850_Connection\"><\/span><strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 and the CC850 Connection<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Koenigsegg CC850<\/strong> plays an important role in the CCGT1 story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CC850 was already known for combining modern Koenigsegg performance with a unique transmission system capable of offering both automatic and manual-style driving experiences. Its 5.0-litre twin-turbo V8 and Light Speed Transmission architecture provided a foundation for further development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CCGT1 takes that concept in a much more aggressive direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the CC850 focuses heavily on driver engagement and road usability, the CCGT1 adds substantially more aerodynamic focus and track-oriented engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This makes the relationship between the two cars important: the CCGT1 is not simply a rebodied CC850. It uses the CC850 as its technical starting point but develops that architecture around a very different performance objective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"From_the_Original_CCGT_to_the_CCGT1\"><\/span><strong>From the Original CCGT to the CCGT1<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The name <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT<\/strong> carries considerable significance within the company&#8217;s history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The original CCGT was conceived as Koenigsegg&#8217;s answer to the GT1 racing category. However, regulatory changes meant that the programme never reached the competition environment for which it was developed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CCGT1 effectively gives that idea a second life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rather than attempting to recreate the original car exactly, Koenigsegg has interpreted its racing philosophy through modern technology. The result is a road-legal machine that pays tribute to the original CCGT while incorporating the engineering capabilities of the current company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This connection gives the CCGT1 more historical significance than a conventional new hypercar launch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

combines lightweight materials, racing-focused seats and Koenigsegg&#8217;s distinctive cabin design.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 interior<\/strong> combines road-car refinement with a much stronger focus on circuit driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cabin remains recognizable as a high-end Koenigsegg environment, but the available track-oriented equipment makes the car considerably more serious about performance use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Koenigsegg is also introducing a lightweight material called <strong>Ghost Fibre<\/strong>, designed to provide sound-dampening benefits while keeping weight under control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For customers who want an even more focused experience, the optional Track Package adds equipment including a full roll cage, racing seats, fire-suppression equipment and upgraded suspension and braking components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That combination gives the CCGT1 two very different personalities: a highly exclusive road car and a serious track-focused machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Koenigsegg_CCGT1_Track_Package\"><\/span><strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 Track Package<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The optional Track Package takes the <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 performance<\/strong> philosophy even further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The package includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Full roll cage<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Racing seats<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fire-suppression system<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Upgraded suspension<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Upgraded brakes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Track-focused equipment and support<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is significant because Koenigsegg is positioning the CCGT1 as a car that can be used seriously on a circuit rather than simply looking like a race car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The result is a hypercar designed to provide a much more focused experience for owners who intend to use it on track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Koenigsegg_CCGT1_Performance_More_Than_Just_1600_HP\"><\/span><strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 Performance: More Than Just 1,600 HP<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The headline <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 performance<\/strong> figure is naturally its 1,600-hp output on E85.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But horsepower alone doesn&#8217;t explain the car&#8217;s performance potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CCGT1 combines that power with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Rear-wheel drive<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Racing-inspired aerodynamics<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Up to 800 kg of downforce at 250 km\/h<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lightweight construction<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Advanced transmission technology<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Track-focused suspension and braking options<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This combination is important because extreme power can only be effectively used when the chassis and aerodynamic systems can manage it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CCGT1&#8217;s development therefore appears to follow the modern hypercar philosophy of balancing <strong>power, weight, grip and aerodynamic efficiency<\/strong> rather than focusing exclusively on top speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Koenigsegg_CCGT1_Production_and_Availability\"><\/span><strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 Production and Availability<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 production<\/strong> run is extremely limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Koenigsegg plans to build just <strong>70 examples<\/strong>, and the entire allocation has already been spoken for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That makes the CCGT1 a collector-grade hypercar before customer deliveries have even begun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The limited production also reinforces the car&#8217;s connection to the CC850, which itself was ultimately planned for 70 units after demand prompted Koenigsegg to increase the original production allocation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For buyers, therefore, the CCGT1 is no longer a matter of simply walking into a showroom and placing an order. The available production allocation has already been claimed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

important stage for some of the world&#8217;s most exclusive performance cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CCGT1 fits naturally into the category of <strong><a

hypercars<\/a><\/strong>, but its story is more interesting than simply being another expensive and powerful machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It connects three different parts of Koenigsegg&#8217;s history:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The original CCGT racing project \u2192 the CC850&#8217;s transmission and architecture \u2192 the modern CCGT1.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That combination gives the car a genuine historical narrative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It also demonstrates how manufacturers can revisit unfinished ideas from their past and reinterpret them using modern technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

<strong>Koenigsegg CCGT1 hypercar<\/strong> enters an increasingly competitive segment that includes track-focused machines from Ferrari, McLaren, Lamborghini and other manufacturers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Koenigsegg&#8217;s approach remains distinctive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rather than focusing only on maximum horsepower or maximum speed, the CCGT1 emphasizes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Driver involvement<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Aerodynamic performance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lightweight engineering<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Advanced transmission technology<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Racing heritage<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Extreme exclusivity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Its 1,600-hp E85 output is certainly competitive with the most powerful hypercars, but the combination of a sequential transmission, available manual-style system and track package gives the CCGT1 its own identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p

It is based on the Koenigsegg CC850 and has been developed with a strong focus on aerodynamic and track performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_power_does_the_Koenigsegg_CCGT1_make\"><\/span><strong>How much power does the Koenigsegg CCGT1 make?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CCGT1 produces <strong>1,280 hp on pump fuel and up to 1,600 hp when running on E85<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_many_Koenigsegg_CCGT1_cars_will_be_built\"><\/span><strong>How many Koenigsegg CCGT1 cars will be built?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Koenigsegg plans to produce <strong>70 CCGT1 examples<\/strong>, and all 70 have already been allocated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_the_Koenigsegg_CCGT1_based_on_the_CC850\"><\/span><strong>Is the Koenigsegg CCGT1 based on the CC850?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. The CCGT1 uses the <strong>Koenigsegg CC850 as its technical foundation<\/strong>, but it has been extensively developed around a more aggressive track-focused objective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_the_Koenigsegg_CCGT1_have_a_manual_gearbox\"><\/span><strong>Does the Koenigsegg CCGT1 have a manual gearbox?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CCGT1 features Koenigsegg&#8217;s Sequential Shift system and can also be specified with the company&#8217;s Engage Shift System, which provides a six-speed gated manual-style experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_much_downforce_does_the_CCGT1_produce\"><\/span><strong>How much downforce does the CCGT1 produce?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Koenigsegg claims up to <strong>800 kg of downforce at 250 km\/h<\/strong>, supported by its active rear wing and other aerodynamic elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_Koenigsegg_CCGT1_Track_Package\"><\/span><strong>What is the Koenigsegg CCGT1 Track Package?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The optional Track Package adds equipment such as a full roll cage, racing seats, fire-suppression equipment and upgraded suspension and brakes for more serious circuit use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_the_Koenigsegg_CCGT1_a_race_car\"><\/span><strong>Is the Koenigsegg CCGT1 a race car?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. The CCGT1 is a <strong>road-legal hypercar<\/strong>, although its design and engineering are strongly influenced by racing and it can be equipped with a dedicated Track Package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_connection_between_the_CCGT1_and_the_original_CCGT\"><\/span><strong>What is the connection between the CCGT1 and the original CCGT?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CCGT1 pays tribute to Koenigsegg&#8217;s original CCGT GT1 project, which never reached competition.
