The Koenigsegg CCXR is an "ecological" mid-engined roadster from Swedish car manufacturer Koenigsegg. The CCXR is powered by a modified dual-supercharged V8 engine of its predecessor, the CCX, converted to use E85 or E100 ethanol fuel as well as the level of gasoline 98 octane. Besides the use of ethanol fuel, the only change that will change the engine, fuel injectors, upgraded fuel lines and piston rings and promote a higher setting on the compressor. The increasing power of the CCXR, compared with the CCX, is the result of the cooling effect of ethanol into the engine combustion chambers at a higher pressure in the cylinder and the biofuel is higher octane rating of 113 RON compared to 95 RON for gasoline in North America and 100 RON for petrol in Europe.

Koenigsegg says it will h) 259 mph (417 km / go theoretically the fastest car in production in the world. The designer of the CCXR, Koenigsegg and owner, Christian von Koenigsegg is with the words: "Our engineers could not quite believe the figures when we tested the car quoted."

Engine

Koenigsegg CCXR The engine is a 4.7-liter 288 cu in (4719 cc) V8 engine with twin overhead camshafts and 4 valves per cylinder. The engine block is accelerated with heat-treated aluminum alloy T7, a form of enhanced precipitation. The engine is increased by two Rotrex centrifugal compressor 1.6 bar that provide the lift with 8.8:1 compression, achieved through sequential multipoint fuel injection. The engine has a patented system of response costs for the optimum engine response. The engine must be lubricated with a dry sump pump with separate oil spray cooled pistons with oil on them and the oil itself has an external heat exchanger.

The engine delivers 1018 hp min (759 kW 1032 hp) at 7200 rpm and 782 LB · ft (1,060 Nm) torque at 6100 rpm on E100 ethanol fuel.

In March 2009, the CCXR has been selected by Forbes Magazine as one of the ten most beautiful cars of all time.

Performance

The CCXR can accelerate from 0-100 km / h (62 mph) in 2.8 seconds and 0-200 km / h (120 mph) in 8.9 seconds. The CCXR is from 0-200 km / h speed () 120 mph and slowly from 200 (120 mph) -0 kmh in 13.7 seconds. After Koenigsegg CCXR is the estimated maximum speed of 400 + km / h (250 + mph),
