When introduced, it was the fastest street-legal car in production, with a claimed top speed of 390 km/h (240 mph), and an acceleration that takes it up to 100 km/h (62 mph) in less than 3.5 seconds. The CC8S's body and chassis are made of carbon fiber, reinforced with Kevlar and aluminium honeycomb.
The Koenigsegg developed suspension system, modeled from Formula One racing, has been judged by expert test-drivers to provide better handling than any competing supercar. Its supercharged engine delivers 655 bhp (488 kW) and 750 N·m (553 ft·lbf) of torque. Like a racing car, it can be fully modified to optimize the vehicle for the race track.
