Christian Von Koenigsegg is a very humble man. From the very start he has never had a negative word to say only praise for the competition. At the end of the day, he is an innovator who puts his money where his mouth is!
And he knows his cars inside out - never a "maybe weighs...", "maybe runs on..", "maybe makes..." Just knows the answers because he lives and breathes the product
Hes the current God of autosports.
Open Roader he puts the cars he builds were his mouth is lol
The man could give a lecture on toilet paper, and people would be fully committed to listening to his every word.
Open Roader
Yes, that is what I like about him or Elon Musk. Both humble, and geniuses in their own way!
Christian Von Koenigsegg is one of the nicest, most humble and smartest villains around.
"No, Mr. Bond- I expect you to die. If that's alright with you, I don't want to impose if you've got other plans."
Lex Luthor without the evil tendencies (?)
Gru from despicable me lol
Even though the guy in that Bond film was German, after reading your comment I still need to hear CVK to say "No Mr. Pagani. I expect you to _die_ "
(puts pinky finger to his lips) It costs.... one MILLION dollars!
I could listen to Christian Vonn Koenigsegg talk about his cars all day long. So involved with every aspect of his cars right down to grade and size of bolts used and engineering. Shows his love for cars as a kid and took it to a level that no one has ever done. An inspiration to all.
Same here. Have been for a couple of years and still not tired of hearing him speak about his passion.
I love how 68 yr old (?) Jay is so interested in new technology & that Christian is such an engineer at heart and loves to talk about the design aspects of his cars. Great episode!
Jay was born in 1950, so he's 71 but close! Same birthday as my grandma, only reason I know
@@PlayinWithMahWii Not that bright are you? When this video was made Jay was 68.

@@niehlsbohr so you're using your 2nd account to like your comment?
lmao
Notice how Christian never says "I". He always says "We". The man is the personification of humility and extremely honorable in how he conducts himself. For a man who has accomplished so much in such a short amount of time, he never hogs the credit. Top guy, definitely someone all of us should aspire to be.
true
That's because he is from Sweden, where team effort supersedes personal achievement (unlike American culture).
please forgive me for soiling your true comment, but the exact opposite of trump
@@rancher12121 You're a pretty sad human if you can't see a nice comment without using it to put somebody else down.
I’ve found truly successful people turn out to be really humble, a lesson taught by Andy Frisella, whom I recommend to check out if you can, but wow ain’t that really inspirational, if you wanna be truly successful, be humble... must say it doesn’t apply to celebrities like modern “rappers” and such but yea
"It's for everyday use"
You know like, if you have to be at work at 8, you can leave at 8:02 and still show up 5 minutes early.
Lol
Tesla fan boy 🙄
@@Professor-Scientist it's... it's a Koenigsegg though...
@@ToothpasteJuice that's exactly what a tesla fan boy would say 🙄
@@Professor-Scientist well idk what tesla people you've met, but I know almost nothing about tesla, and I collect classic cars from the 60s. couldn't be more wrong there bud.
I love how Koenigsegg was not afraid to admit that the direct drive transmission was inspired by Tesla. Very humble dude
Most piston engine airplanes use/were designed with direct drive, to save weight. High Torque efficient engines, direct out to crank/propeller.
I'm pretty sure Christian Koenigsegg is the only person who designed & engineered a masterpiece & knows everything about it
Even Christian von Koenigsegg's Head is very Aerodynamic
The lack of eye brows helps drag coefficients
Hahahaha. Lab u bro
Apparently his balls are carbon fibre
Jon snow 🤣🤣
That's what happens when your brain throws out that much heat from processing at such a fast rate.
Christian Von Koenigsegg is the man! Such a modest guy!
I could listen to Christian all day long. He explains the most technical aspects of his cars in a way that a common man can understand it.
A sheep dog...🙈
I wouldnt say that... I bet that watch is $300k+
He is the best at explaining his car. No smoke and mirrors. Just the facts. The numbers speak for itself.
H3 look like butter bean
Oh I remember a documentary many years ago on Christian Koenigsegg (and his wife) when they had a Fire at the first factory. A disused Aircraft Hangar. Love the story of the Ghost logo they build into every car.
Just when you think you're seeing amazing, the hood opens and bam...stunningly beautiful engineering. Love at 1st sight
Two guys worth more money than most will see in a lifetime... dressed like my dad and uncle at a family barbeque.
And whose ur dad.😂 Nice cmt btw
@barbara Corcoran Which watch is that?
Two very down to earth guys meeting.
Josip Hadžiegrić Kristian is wearing a Rolex and Jay a smart watch.
Lasse Riise Pocket watches are great, big movements, good for timekeeping and long lasting. It's probably the nickel in the stainless you're skin reacts to, and Rolex 904L has much more than regular 316L. Today there are many great alternatives if you're allergic, try ceramic, titanium or precious metals.
some say christian koenigsegg lost his hair to improve aerodynamics.
Ahahaha brilliant!
Lol
😅😅😅
Jay Leno grew his chin for the same reason.
Lol
Ridiculously talented, visionary, humble engineer. Never stops pushing the envelope. Long may he continue.
I have more respect for Koenigsegg than any other car maker in the world. I am so glad I got to see the man himself talk to Jay Leno. The luxury Regarra... a 2+ million dollar car for everyday use. Over 280 mph... Oh My Gawd. And it is totally street legal in California? Truly Amazing.
Christian von Koenigsegg, the kind of guy to sell a car for $2.2 million but still cares about tire prices
Max not too bad considering that the rs is reselling for $10mil+
I imagine that the tooling required to make a tire of this caliber is well into a million dollars. For a big company to dedicate their equipment and talent into it, it’s well worth that price. When they expect to only produce a couple hundred sets, then it gets very very expensive. Koenigsegg can afford it. However when you’re only selling 80 two million dollar cars, 1 million dollars for tires is far too much to justify. Their approach as a partnership rather than an exclusive product makes a lot more sense.
Whether I have my numbers right or not is up to us to guess, but I think my hunch is in the right proportions. Tires making up 1% or more of the production cost wouldn’t work for a small company.
@Manuel love the comment lol...unless you've been to Germany you just wouldn't understand!
Max true, the guy could price tag his cars at 10 million and people would still line up to buy them. The one:1 is now selling for 12 in the aftermarket.
Makes the car usable for every day use, that is Christian's philosophy. When hammered, the car will eat rubber fast so it would be really impractical to be stockpiling exclusive tyre treads.
Apparently engineers around the world line up to work for him. I love how he never says “I”, he always says “we”.
who wouldnt want to work with him? he's making modern day art pieces with these vehicles
Typical Swedish to say we. We are a team👍🏻
The guy acts like your everyday guy so humble
Very cool
Very communist very cool 👍
This is one of my favorite episodes ever...a genius and a true automobile historian and curator having a conversation.....I learned a lot.
I just love to hear Christian talk about his cars. What’s humble and down to earth human being.
The way he talks about the car. He pours his heart in what he does. Way to go!
People of the Night was a great song (your avatar photo)
Role model
No
"We're trying to break the 20 second, 0 - 200 MPH record. The current record is 21 seconds."
"Oh, who has the current record?"
"We do."
That's why I love Koenigsegg.
23 seconds.
The 1/2 mile cars that are 3K HP are far faster, of course. There are steerable versions of the 1/2 mile cars that are faster. I think Koenigsegg is simply trying to make a homologated car from a manufacturer that is very fast and he should be commended for that, but keep in mind that for far less money one can build a Lambo or Porsche with 1700 -2500 HP and be far faster.
@@stevennorsworthy2191 For less money you don't have a production car
A very street-able twin turbo Lambo with 2000 HP can do 0-200 in about 11 secs. or less at Shift Sector 1/2 mile events. You don't have to believe me, just go to Shift Sector website and see dozens of street cars modified that totally blow away the Knenigsegg cars for way less money.
@@stevennorsworthy2191 Comparing factory to modified is an entirely redundant argument
I never get tired of Mr. Koeningsegg.
Hi Jay, I’m very happy to have lived long enough to have seen this. WOW what innovation ‼️‼️. Thank you‼️‼️‼️‼️
CVK: We're going to try to get to 0-250mph in 20 seconds. Thats 3 seconds faster than the current record.
Jay: Who holds the record?
CVK: We do
lol
Man u have me laughing like crazy
Anyone have the time stamp ? 😂

20 seconds of exceleration kick. Meaning you press your young lady long enough into the seat to reach a hill. Or to want more at least. ;)
love the fact that Christian uses "we" instead of "i". we make, we invented and so on.. 👍🏼
skarn911 Unless he is using the ‘Royal We’ throughout the interview... which would also be fine. (Koenig does mean “King”!!)
Typical Swedish to say that!
An actual humility that is totally foreign to Americans. He isn't desperate to talk about himself at every moment; he lets his production speak for itself.
Unlike elon
Sam Harper Yeah *all* Americans are like that
Liked the smile on Jays face when he hit the robo door button.
Gotta love a guy that is this brilliant with his designs and this down to earth and accessible. Just seems like a good old fashioned real car guy.
Talking with Christian Von Koenigsegg seems to be like talking with a friend in the pub, great person.
bcz jay is awesome person to
@Nějaký pablb ne pravda.
he is no friend of yours
When you are rich as him and a potential client, of course!

Years later this car is still out of this world.
You can tell that Mr. Koenigsegg is proud of what he does👏
what an intelligent man, he explains his machine so wonderfully. great job.
he is so hands on in his company
"So how much is the car?" "2.2". Apparently, no need to add those annoying zeros onto the main numbers.

Jay is a legendary car guy and one of few individuals with the biggest and rarest car collection in the world. But he always lets his guests speak in length from their standpoint. Jay is an old-fashioned car guy with the obvious sentiment on American marques but he too has an open mind and big respect to new ideas and inventions in the automotive industry. No matter how smart and how rich the guest is, he always feels like the luckier man to be in the garage.
Nowhere near
You know a good humble man when he says "our" and "we"
Millions of dollars worth of cars and not a Gucci belt in sight
He is a pretty big guy for skinny jeans though
Well he is rich but he wears normal clothes 👍🏻 i mean he’s not conceited to wear LV GUCCI PRADA etc etc.
Not many 60+ year old people in general wearing Gucci belts are there? I'm sure when you see young rich people you'll see much more ostentatious clothing. When you get older you tend to focus on the things that really matter. But yeah, it's all about race.
gucci is for that low class that wants attention
Tee Kee so true
Christian's IQ runs faster than a Bugatti.
How can a guy that's so smart think that shaving off your eyebrows is a good move aesthetically 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦♂️

@@muksimp89 It's from gut bacteria overgrowth causing auto immune problems from food. We have a parasite and bacteria epidemic in the Human digestive tract, but it won't be known for another 10 or 20 years, it's been highly suppressed. MMS drops can fix it. We all get parasites, there are over 140 digestive parasites in America alone, and 400 in Africa. Everytime we eat raw vegetables or undercooked food or any food that contains soil or has been handled by people who haven't washed their hands, we are exposed to digestive parasites. We all have severe parasite infections in our intestines. Taking MMS drops fixes problems which are actually parasite infections. See the book "The Parasite Menace." See Jim Humble the inventor of MMS drops. See "MMS Testimonials" on TH-cam. This is just my opinion based on research, I am not a doctor.
I love the presence that Mr. Koenigsegg gives, humble, modest, also seem determined at the same time. He also giving the presence of a leader who always put his employees first over anything else. Yeah, a leader, not a boss. I honestly would love to work with him making those rims even if it’s underpaid.
Some people said that CVK wasn't rich, because the money the company get for each car are significantly distributed for his "colleagues". But he certainly is wealthy; the Koenigsegg brand -- which includes the company's expert employees -- are definitely worth billions.
"... I get a chance to drive cars like these, I really am the luckiest guy in the world." The words of a truly humble car guy!
I'd love to see other car brand CEO's speak about their cars like this

Shan Hussain Thank you from Siddharth Bhardwaj.
The problem is the length of this video. Could easily be 3 hrs and I would still watch this. Amazing car with two likeable people.
bg11053 there’s a documentary on TH-cam about Christians cars. I think it’s by the /Drive network maybe. It’s in multiple parts and focuses on all the cool engineering aspects of his cars.
@@davidgammon4934 sure, will check it out.
Mr Koenigsegg, thank you for taking us back to the future ! You are such an inspiration, the finest example of how all people should conduct themselves . Humble,modest ,and brilliant. A fine gentlemen n villain all rapped in one ! 0 - 250 mph in under 20 seconds ! Puts a permanent smile on any man's face ! WELL DONE SIR !
An inspiration to hear him. Super knowledgable, intelligent, a creative visionary artist, devoted, no arrogance yet no false modesty.
A "home-grown" V8 faster than a W16 by one of the biggest automakers in the world. What an achievement.
Yeah, there are a lot of benefits to basing the engine parts on a Ford V8. Parts availability for the customer being number one. Kind of like Lotus using Toyota engines. I would think it would put potential customers at ease.
@@jeffk464 Not the same for this car. I don't think anything from ford fits in this car, The bore and stroke might be different. It's like saying AK parts fits in a Galil.
It’s not. It uses over 600hp of electric power. Plus all those peak numbers are basically achieved by cheating with ethanol fuel. Reason why his records aren’t officially recognised by Guiness for example.
Egg just said in the video that they used normal pump gas, dummy
Yeah, i mean the bugatti is alot heavier even excluding the engine due to the luxuries added, but that doesnt make beating it a small task and its really amazing for a company like theres
I am amazed at how Christian can answer any question you give at him and how well he explains it.
He's deeply involved with all aspects of the manufacturing process. He practically built his first cars himself with a small support team, so he really knows his product.
I guessed so. Because he really talks about it like a proud father haha.
Amazing on every level. Brilliant.
But 1420 kg is over 3100 lbs, rather than "about 2800 lbs."
That is because that is the same man who gets his hands dirty actually working in the labs. A lot of CEOs of car companies are like 3rd and 4th generation and have never actually worked on the cars themselves. He personally oversees so much that goes into his automobiles.
It's worse than that. CEOs of car companies are just MBAs who where CEOs of airlines or tech companies before being hired. They don't have to have a passion for cars, just the skills to keep the shareholders happy.
Christian Von Koenigsegg is so calm, and I love how he says “Yeah exactly” like his tone is so calm. You can tell he is definitely dedicated to his company
Christian Von Koenigsegg is literally the mad scientist of the car world. Truly a man to be admired.
Totally amazing in every way. Christian is a living legend.
He is more then a legend to be honest!
Not only is he humble ... he is LEADING the cutting edge of automotive technology. Everyone else is following him!
Absolutely!!!
Elon Musk: I am heading to Mars. Koenigsegg: We are heading to the stars.
@@HannuHeikkinen no.Koenigsegg will be in Andromeda before Elon gets near Mars.
Think of what would be possible if Musk and Konigseeg were to team up.
Inspired by Tesla.
I love it when the engineers turn up. They just love what they do and know what they're doing.
Christian's every word is chock full of useful information. And yes, he is so humble, down to earth, and relatable. A pleasure to watch him.
If it were the Viking days, his longships would’ve been state of the art.

What a great car, what a great man. I couldn't stop smiling during the whole interview. Well done Jay!
This was awesome on so many fronts. I love to see Jay genuinely impressed by the original tech. Two very cool guys.
Only Jay Leno could compare the feeling of direct drive to that of both jet turbines and steam engines and know exactly what he’s talking about because he’s driven all three lol
this is confirmation that Jay is keeping the really awesome nerdy detailed stuff for the true gearheads on youtube. much appreciated guys.
Alan Franklin Ironic you say that on a video about a car with no gears 😂
Matthew I’ve never heard of anyone hating a Regera? And they were $2.2m and this is nothing like a go-kart, if anything is, it’s the Agera due to the solid engine mounts...

Actually found myself being disappointed to hear that all 80 cars of that model were sold. As if I could ever afford it.
I chuckled
Probably pre-sold before they were built. Try the lotto.
@@highsnburgers4862 thats what Christian said they sold 80 but the manufacturing run is in the 20s but I bet they're all delivered now in 2020

Every video I watch I can tell he loves his cars and his work; very enthusiactic about his continued innovations
This was an awesome episode!
What a beautiful car Christian is the Einstein of car builders
Tesla was smarter .
Elon Musk comes first
Well said
Not really. Koenigsegg makes a profit and has an absolutely staggering amount of patents. Not to mention that Christian is an engineer and has a very active role in developing their cars. Musk is more of an idealistic business man (a role which he of course excells in).
And Horacio Pagani is the DaVinci.
i wish christian von koenigsegg had his own youtube channel jus explaining all this would be super dope to watch
th-cam.com/users/drivesearch?query=Koenigsegg
He explained the Regera and the transmission in mini series on The Drive channel. It was impressive as a concept, it is a dream seeing it on the road.
I would love having one of them but the next best thing is watching these two experience it and talking about it together. It was a joy to listen to them and it made me appreciate the car even more.
One can dream.
Imagine seeing Mr. Leno and Mr. Koenigsegg driving around in a Regera. I'd faint right there. 😀❤
this guy is a literal genius
Absolutely! That's the beauty of this. Although the result is truly sexy, the incentive seems to be pursuit of engineering excellence and integration versus sales goals.
How so
This is my favourite car manufacturer from this point on.
Same
Use to be mine too. But not anymore. Tesla is now. Elon Musk is so badass. And I own a Tesla. In many ways my Model 3 is much better than the Regera. And I can't afford a Koenigsegg right now. Little stretch lol
Finest I mean they are 2 very different cars
@Finest How are you gonna compare a hyper luxury car to a Tesla model 3? Arguably the most boring and ugly Tesla ever. Yeah it’s a better everyday family car that nobody cares about just like any other normal car. At least compare cars with cars that were intended for the same purpose and market man.
@@InSaN3ViSioN Teslas are quick but relatively ugly cars.

Such a great video; I had to watch it twice.
42 G*d damn minutes of gloriousness. 🙌🏾
And I sure did pay attention to every single word through out the whole video.
When it finished I had to check to make sure it was the entire video. Shortest 42 minutes of my life.
@@DeviousJoker93 that sure felt like a short video.
I didn't even notice the time
Felt like 4 minutes 20 seconds honestly.
You know, I used to think of Koenigsegg as just another supercar, but after wathcing this i realized how wrong I was. The attention to detail, and how its form follows the function, nothing superfluous , everything has been thought out and has a reason of being. This is the kind of car company you want to give your money to. What you are buying is not just a show piece, something to show off to other people, its a piece of art born from the dedication of the craftsmen. I am humbled just by watching this video.
Check out the DRIVE series on Koenisegg. This video just scatches the surface. He's an absolute perfectionist, involved at every level, but with the pragmatic focus of an engineer.
Koenigsegg seems like such a knowledgeable and humble guy. Love his personality.
Speaking of love, I’d love to see what his trick torque converter can do in F1 given their near seamless shifts.
Puking.
Well said
Just how they make all their own carbon parts and then have the weaves line up between body parts, if you start thinking about it your head explodes.. Being so small, doing so much themselves ánd delivering world class products is really a special thing. They have kept improving and getting more refined since the dawn of the company. He's only 46 now and Koenigsegg is 24 years old already, so crazy..
Love this episode! Both Jay and Christian are in their element! Great episode! Amazing piece of engineering!
Jay is truly the best host ever! Whether you're Koenigsegg or an everyman with a passion for cars, he makes everyone feel welcome.
I never EVER comment on youtube, but wow, this guy is just a pleasure to hear, full of knowledge and most of all humble at all. Bravo

It'd be fun if Top Gear could release all of the footage when the Stig wrecked the Koenigsegg (though the cameras likely weren't rolling for the serious talk), I can see it now, "the world hadn't witnessed an angry Swede since the end of the viking age." Seriously brilliant, driven guy, and he's like Exhibit A disputing the big dudes aren't smart dudes trope.

Jay, never in my wildest dreams did I think we would witness the speeds these hyper cars do. Watch your drive with the prototype ZO 6 and it was amazing! The engine sound of the Z06 is just like Indy car and Formula1! I get goose bumps when they RAP theses engines! I graduated high school in 1965. Was a fantastic time to be a teenager and to be surrounded by muscle cars. Thanks for doing your show

just two gearheads talking about automotive engineering. This is heaven.
Agree! I love Jay's show!
They really had a solid chemistry and mutual respect for each other.
Whatever
I enjoyed every minute of this video!! Thank you.
What an amazing mind and person christian is. Awesome work bring us into the future with this new technology. Good man Jay 🇮🇪
Owning a Koenigsegg is not just like owning a car it is owning a piece of history
+LaVa No, it's not, and even it was, how trivial.
Just like owning stuffed lion´s head on the wall, unnecessary.
I agree
A piece of marvelous engineering.
if this is the 1st of these cars sold, yes, it is a part of history
Leno gets to interview the best in the business 😮
Joseph Delgadillo because he is the best in the business 👍
& makes it seem so effortless in the process.
I mean that's what he has been doing all this time
Joseph D ... Jay really really really .. REALLY wants one of these .... but alas sold out :-(
Yeah, but with Christian, he's a cool enough guy that he's let just about every decent car vlogger to interview him, show them around his cars and/or plant if they make the trip, etc.. This Regera has literally been in at least 5 channels this month. Awesome guy Christian, awesome company!
Koenigsegg has a great combination of intelligence and creativity. The carbon fiber wheels, the hybrid power train (really, a supercar application of the diesel-electric locomotive idea), the hydraulic/electric valvetrain (may not be in production yet, but imagine a camshaft/valvetrain not coupled to the crankshaft at all, but valves would be electronically actuated to be able to move timing around however you wanted to)--this guy is a real automotive genius.
These are the most beautiful cars. Wow.
