Why it matters
The CC850 is a modern reinterpretation of the CC8S, Koenigsegg's first production model, created to mark twenty years of vehicle production and the 50th birthday of founder Christian von Koenigsegg. Its Engage Shift System puts a gated six-speed manual and a nine-speed automatic in one transmission, and the car matches the 1:1 power-to-weight ratio of the One:1.

06Reference
Identification guide
How to tell an original from a replica or later conversion.
The car carries the classic Koenigsegg silhouette inspired by the CC8S. The interior has a second-generation analogue Chronocluster, a single multi-faced dial showing rpm on the outer ring, speed on a central dial and turbo boost in the centre. A clutch pedal and gated manual shifter sit alongside the automatic mode.
