What I love about Christian is that he knows every single component in each car from ground up. The passion isn't lost even with his success. Attention to detail is absolutely incredible. You can't not respect this man
Imagine if he knows all that technical stuff of his cars in such detail (mechanical, electrical, aerodynamic and materials), he must know all the financial stuff of the company, PR, HR, business relations, and so on. This guy is an animal! And being so humble also! He is one of a kind and I am sure Koenigsegg will be soon one of the leading automotive company and I'm guessing not only automotive but in many future industries. I bet he will go aerospace soon. Mark my word.
Christian is one of the few guys who is not afraid of challenges. What he did within 20 years is the matter of deep esteem. Respect for his courage and conscientiousness in each and every detail. Look at his factory. It is like a toy. Accurate, smartly designed and ironly logical.... Bravo, Christian.!!!👍👍👍👍
I could watch videos with James and Christian all day long. Koenigsegg's innovation is unbelievable. And I love how everything is treated as a piece of art, no matter if it is seen all the time or tucked away where you would never know.
Toured the old factory with my so in 2016. My son was obsessed with their cars at the time (a precocious 10 year old). He wrote CVK a letter before our visit to Sweden and he got to meet with him after the tour. He spoke to my son at length, answering his questions - a true gentleman and a brilliant automotive innovator.
I am not the biggest fan of Koenigsegg's styling but I do have immense respect for Christian and his team. To build a car company out of nothing and then do everything in-house. Even a company like McLaren for instance didn't design their own engine or Aston Martin sourcing their engines from Mercedes same goes for Pagani and there are a lot of other examples. And Koenigsegg not only built their own engines and transmissions but they are cutting edge in doing so. For such a relatively 'small' company that more than just impressive.
@@myselfandeye3884idk why he thinks you're a bot, it was a good comment. Sometimes there are bots that copy other comments but those usually have tits and ass in the pfp and are obviously fake profiles.
I have so much respect for christian, whenever I think of a business idea no matter how simple it is I get overwhelmed.. This man builds almost everything from scratch, manages to do so with a small team and excells at what he does really shows how multi talanted he is
Christian is a genius in automotive engineering. I have so much respect to some individual like him but I guess he is miles ahead of his peers. His brain is full of new ideas and innovation, what a great man. Another thing I like him is his humility, he's a guy who's easy to talk and very accommodating and willing to share everything even some of them should be kept secret. BTW, his whole team are amazing and talented people as well.
He is simillar to Elon Musk. Well ofc Elon focuses on EV, Rockets, other stuff. Christian is a genius on internal combustion engines, gearboxes. I admire both of them.
@@Mr.Cerera69well at Least Musk proves his products his electricfication is the standard for other auto manufacturers CvK engineering is no where else to be seen so idk.
I could watch Christian all day long! You cannot help but to learn something from him in any conversation that I have ever seen of his. His ability is second to none! And like you James, he actually seems to care! PLEASE send your camera crew back for a day, or convince Christian to set up web cams, so we can watch some complete builds. (never going to happen, but we can dream) Thank you so much for this content James!
These Koenigsegg factory visits will never get old. I don't care how long the video may be. I sit through it to the end. Unbelievably fascinating. And the way James comes through in the presentation! Just all round quality.
I could easily watch 2 hour tours of Christian just showing James all the mechanical parts and manufacturing processes. When theres excitement from the people on screen for whats being shown, it makes it so entertaining and interesting. Honestly dont care for the standard youtube car videos but these factory tours are like the best sort of documentary. Please keep doing these. 😌
As a former director of manufacturing, the integration of tools and the MES is fascinating. The error-proofing and improvements in training speed would be awesome. We had an MES system, but not as sophisticated and integrated. (and we made medical devices!)
I am just utterly in awe of not only the cars but the facilities and tooling to make them. The idea of..."well we took our torque wrenches, made them wireless with a computer system, and it just torques every bolt correctly and tells you if you did it wrong," is staggering to me. It makes me so, so sad that I'll probably never get to drive one, let alone own one. Every component is a masterpiece.
My thoughts as well. Network connected tools automatically adjusting for every step. Crazy! Maybe other car factories have this also, I don’t know. But I’ve never seen it before and it’s badass!
@@Patrick94GSR They do, it’s pretty standard if a brand wants quality. I work for Volvo Construction Eqpt, and we have these in our engine and component factories, and also on the production line for the machines themselves. Admittedly, our torque wrenches don’t have carbon parts on them, which I think I saw on the Koenigsegg ones.
What's is truly amazing is that CVK knows how everything works, all the tiny details, inside and out. He's not just a face, he is a pioneer and innovator, and so humble.
Its very nice to see how Christian treats his engineers with respect and how humble all these guys are...I just enjoy watching Koenigsegg engineering marvel and innovation. what a treat!!
@@devd6373trust me, Koenigsegg would have crashed and burned if he didn't treat his engineers well. People with these skills will easily move somewhere else.
I think the main reason behind the awe and love for Koenigsegg is seeing its founder being so knowledgeable about his cars and all the processes needed to create them. A one-in-a-million boss for a one-in-a-million company. Thanks to Christian, Koenigsegg is now the pinnacle of automobile, delivering the best cars ever made through out-of-the-box thinking and innovation. (edit : thanks to Christian and of course all Koenigsegg employees !!)
when people think of koenigsegg they think of performance. I think of innovation. It's so insane what they've been able to accomplish thus far and it seems like theyre only getting started I can't wait to see where this brand goes. only up from here!
MES = Manufacturing Execution System. Great to see a smaller company like Koenigsegg using what is usually reserved for massive scale manufacturing. Really impressive
Nice to see those torque settings. We do the same at BMW in Munich, there is also a torque curve to follow to emsure proper tightening. Depending upon the classification of the fastening, torque values are recorded and stored for years after....
Loving these factory tours and just listening to Christian talk, you can sense his passion and knowledge about cars and engineering. On the flip side watching Pagani unveil their new car with champagne bottles, full orchestra speaking about the quality of leather and instrument clusters is a joke.
Then you realize that Cristian Koenigsegg is much better concentrated than many sports car engineers, Christian is not human brother, where does he always get new ideas which are even ahead of the competition??!! That's right Christian is a car god.
Even Christian's analogies are next level. As we oo'd and ah'd over the transmission components and he talked about again going where no one had gone before, he said it was like "jumping off of a cliff with a sewing machine and some fabric and stitching a parachute on the way down!" Wow! He only forgot to mention walking away from that impossible jump, nonchalantly, and proceeding to the next challenge on the obstacle course utterly convinced of his eventual success. Everything is extraordinary yet at the same timemade routine; Remarkable! James, thank you for this ongoing partnership and professional presentation!
Gotta say this is one of my favourites. People like him are really truly built differently. A gift to us all to enjoy. And by the sounds of it, he doesn’t miss any opportunities to stop and smell the roses. Could honestly listen to this for hours daily. I wouldn’t even bat an eye if he turned around and said “we innovated the lights and air conditioning for optimal employee productivity and efficiency” hahaha. Awesome videos as always. Keep it up. We miss you!
A Porsche can make me smile and remind me of the finer things in the world... but a Koenigsegg gives me a tear in my eye EVERY TIME. Christian is definitely in the top 3 people i would like to meet.. what a man, what a story. The utmost respect. Thank MrJ for this inside peek. Thank you so much.
I had the honor to shake his hand once in Geneva and quickly express my appreciation of his work. He's the thinking man's hero, isn't he? Everything he comes up with, I kind of kick myself for not having come up with it first. Or having dismissed it immediately, where he gave it a real shot. No other brand is so innovation-positive. I bet they invest a lot in lost cause approaches, but they learn from it and they come out on top with stuff that makes other brands seem ultra lazy and overpriced.
Wow the factory is out of this world, if theres a tour in it i would be geeking out for days 😅, thank you james for taking us along of this content, hope your back and back in full swing 💪🏼
This is why I love MrJWW. He gets access into the most amazing places. There is no doubt that Koenigsegg cars are from another time... the future. Brilliant engineering.
Absolutely amazing inside view of the new factory! Keep the content rolling James! Glad to see you and the crew back and look forward to seeing you rolling out some smoking content!
I could spend days on end just watching James and Christian in the factory. Absolutely mind boggling the way Christian's genius perpetuates into the design of the cars.
As someone who’s been following James for years, I simply do not understand how, with the access to content he has and the quality of production, this channel doesn’t have a couple million subs. Thank you mate. You bring us the best of the best in the automotive enthusiast world.
Watching all the way from South Africa 🇿🇦 I can't help but to appreciate each and every detail that goes towards building Koenigsegg with their cutting edge designs and technology. Now I understand their price tag
As always CvK is a pleasure to listen to, clearly so passionate about his vehicles. But also the knowledge he has of the specs of individual components I imagine he could put one together himself which is incredibly rare for a man in his position.
It’s crazy to think that Christian started this car company with nothing and built it in to this absolutely incredible factory. I’ve been in love with Keonigsegg since the CC8S and every model since then just sets new heights in automotive engineering. They build masterpieces.
Christian is just one of the greatest guys. Down to earth, humble, very smart and knowledgeable. What hes doing with koenigsegg is amazing. He could of easily had an employee do this tour hes a very busy ceo but the fact he himself came out to take you round James is very special. What a special place that place is. Artisan coach building 1 person seeing through the engine and transmission start to finish. The attention to detail and the innovation is crazy. Thanks for the tour
The insight into Koenigsegg you get from your videos James is fantastic every time. In a world already so advanced, that Christian continually comes up with industry firsts, really does justify the term pioneering. The sky is the limit with this company. Thanks for providing such great content.
I loved seeing the hover dyno hubs! When I worked at Caterpillar's Large Engine plant in Lafayette, IN we had a hovering "chassis" that you put the engine on (up to 60,000 lbs or ~27,000 kg) and mounted it to that outside of the dyno room, then hovered it in to the dyno room and hooked it up. Then run an 8,12, or 16 cylinder engine making up to 5000 hp and 30,000+ lb-ft and turbos bigger than most automotive engines! You wore double ear protection (weren't supposed to be in the dyno room while running but I was working on exhaust heat shielding and needed to get thermal images and adjust the fabric shields) and you could have someone yell at your ear and not hear them at all. You felt it in your whole body especially when we loaded the engine.
Christian always impresses me with his genius ideas and innovative thinking,but also with his kindness and his humbleness.What a guy!What a gift to automotive culture and to humanity in general!
Two ideas come to mind each time I listen to him, (1) function over form and (2) no rules, Koenigsegg just invents what they need. My biggest respect for him and his company.
Mr.JWW Literally Enables Us To Tour These Places Exactly How We Would Want To See The Details! Koenigsegg Stands Out & That Carage Place he took us to . . .
15:13 walking into the Koenigsegg factory and have an employee shout "Hey James!" means something must be going okiedokie :) AWESOME collab once again between you and Cristian....I could watch 2 hours of this, literally...
I am impressed at the level of tech in this company. I have followed Koenigsegg for years and your video's are the best I have seen form any one period. Thank you for sharing!!!
Love the way everything on the car is made in-house, and made with Swiss watch attention to detail. Innovation is unreal, world leading engineering....one amazing entrepreneur with his expert team. Thanks for the insight.
Unfortunalety for me,I do not have the income necessary to afford a piece of art from Christian. But if for whatever reason I find myselt a lotery winner, this would be the car of my dream. The level of craftmanship is off the chart and I could just listen to this man talk about his way of seeing thing all day long. Much respect to him to show us his factory.The education level out of those videos make us even more appreciate the genie that he is.
I'm happy to see Christian is in good shape, it looks like he started to train in gym, and that is very nice to see and I truly believe that taking care of yourself is more important than material things. We really need Christian for many years to come
It would be an absolute honor to work for this company. Koenigsegg is always up to some nonsense of pushing boundaries, and I'm here for every second of it!
I hope that one day, even if it’s just for 20 seconds, I can be as cool as Christian. His effortless execution of things that are supremely difficult is poetry in motion. Please make more of these. P.S. James, you’re pretty damn cool, too.
You could feel CVK's passion for the engineering stuff through the tour. He was geeking out showing off that crazy dyno/aero room for example. Those torque vectoring 3-ton hover-dyno's at 1500 nm each were wild.
Love anything with details on Keonigsegg! I had to LOL when they went through the electric nutrunner portion. I work for another automotive manufacturer and we also use Atlas-Copco electric tooling. We using the exact same tools, controllers, and programs shown in the video. Never thought I'd see the equipment I manage daily to build very "normal" vehicles anywhere near a Koenigsegg build process... might be time for a career change!
This is the epitomy of knowing your baby in and out. Just the fact that Christian knows every single part of the motor and trans is unbelievable. Compared to other manufacturers. Hats of to you Sir..👏🏼👏🏼💪💯🎉🎉🎉
This is my first time watching this and it's the closest thing to how I imagined future of vehicles would become when I was a teenager. The level of precision, care and dedication is inspiring. Right now, it really makes most of the industry feel like dust. Thankyou for the video.
I could never get enough of these tours with you and christian, I simply love it. Would like for you to lift the air core seat and the rim next time if possible!
Finally a new video from JWW, I could not wait for it, you can really see your passion for cars, and what a factory and story from the company, love it. :)
I'm deeply impressed at the herringbone on the chassis itself. I've never seen anything like that in my time in composites. I need to go work for Koenigsegg
This is what happens when passion and vision come together to build a company. Other brands CEO´s have much more of a corporate attitude, sometimes not even aware of whats going on at the engineering departament. Whats sets CVK apart is his true passion for the subject and envolvement on everything the coompany does. A truly inspirational character!
This completely explains why their cars are the price they are and gives you another level of respect for the car if you are lucky enough to own one. James, I wish you could convince Damon and Dave to get one, lol.
I love his passion for the cars, most CEO’s are just there for the business end of things but it looks like he loves his job. Christian seems like such a nice guy and he really knows his cars. Koenigsegg has always been one of my favorites, and every time I see him take someone around the factory he talks to them like an actual person and not like some 4 year old. Love this brand so much and I can’t wait to see what they have in store!
The respect I have for Christian and the Koenigsegg team is humungous, he can take you to a factory tour and explain every single thing to nuts and bolts in detail, this man is a fricking genius! More over their factory looks like an automotive science lab, it is so cool! So glad James joined the Koenigsegg family cause their cars will go down in history for sure.
Oh wow!!! Just wow. Whilst Porsche, Aston, Lamborghini and even Ferrari chase mainstream with their SUVs and so on, these guys and Pagani and Rimac etc come out of the ground. GT car, Supercar, Hypercar, the spirit lives on. Necessary. Essential. Absolutely love it. 🔥
I really enjoy your videos but the Koenigsegg content is a must watch for me! Thank you 🙏🏼 it’s just incredible engineering and Christian just seems to be a true gentleman in his toy store.
What I love about Christian is that he knows every single component in each car from ground up. The passion isn't lost even with his success. Attention to detail is absolutely incredible. You can't not respect this man
Such a humble Guy and Genius!😊👌
well said 👏
Imagine if he knows all that technical stuff of his cars in such detail (mechanical, electrical, aerodynamic and materials), he must know all the financial stuff of the company, PR, HR, business relations, and so on.

No one is perfect, but on many levels, this is as close as you will get to it.
Love these behind the scenes tours you don't get elsewhere, Great synergy between JWW and Koenigsegg.
Custom ERP/routing system they use? MBRAIN?
Yes, that’s MBrain.
Two ideas come to mind each time I listen to him, (1) function over form and (2) no rules, Koenigsegg just invents what they need. My biggest respect for him and his company.
I assure you that Christian Koenigsegg is not human, where does he always get new ideas capable of always putting himself ahead of the competition!??
Mr.JWW Literally Enables Us To Tour These Places Exactly How We Would Want To See The Details! Koenigsegg Stands Out & That Carage Place he took us to . . .
15:13 walking into the Koenigsegg factory and have an employee shout "Hey James!" means something must be going okiedokie :)
AWESOME collab once again between you and Cristian....I could watch 2 hours of this, literally...
I am impressed at the level of tech in this company. I have followed Koenigsegg for years and your video's are the best I have seen form any one period. Thank you for sharing!!!
Love the way everything on the car is made in-house, and made with Swiss watch attention to detail. Innovation is unreal, world leading engineering....one amazing entrepreneur with his expert team. Thanks for the insight.
i feel proud as swed lookin at this, seeing my country men take such quality care of thier work
15:55 those little grey motors are built by the company I work in!!! Crazy to see the variety of applications it's used for
By far my favorite hypercar brand! The skill and craftsmanship that goes into these cars is just unbelievable!👌💯
Unfortunalety for me,I do not have the income necessary to afford a piece of art from Christian. But if for whatever reason I find myselt a lotery winner, this would be the car of my dream. The level of craftmanship is off the chart and I could just listen to this man talk about his way of seeing thing all day long. Much respect to him to show us his factory.The education level out of those videos make us even more appreciate the genie that he is.
I'm happy to see Christian is in good shape, it looks like he started to train in gym, and that is very nice to see and I truly believe that taking care of yourself is more important than material things. We really need Christian for many years to come
It would be an absolute honor to work for this company. Koenigsegg is always up to some nonsense of pushing boundaries, and I'm here for every second of it!
great camera work!
What an awesome factory tour Mr. JWW, I'm with you their car building and their quality and expertise is unmatched! Right on Christian
Hurrah you are back
😅 I know I know! 🙏🏼 it’ll be worth the wait - so excited to share what we’ve been working on!
I absolutely love the planning and execution that only Koenigsegg can achieve. Their attention to detail is unmatched. Respect!
My favourite hyper car brand from my favourite content creator. Now this is what I call Black Friday
The passion and engineering, its like art, I could watch this type of content all day
I hope that one day, even if it’s just for 20 seconds, I can be as cool as Christian. His effortless execution of things that are supremely difficult is poetry in motion. Please make more of these.
P.S. James, you’re pretty damn cool, too.
You could feel CVK's passion for the engineering stuff through the tour. He was geeking out showing off that crazy dyno/aero room for example. Those torque vectoring 3-ton hover-dyno's at 1500 nm each were wild.
Great, now I can finally build a Koenigsegg at home
How is that we are so lucky to be subscribers to this amazing channel! Thank you for sharing ❤
Luckily Christian is into cars and not into creating a doomsday device...
Love anything with details on Keonigsegg! I had to LOL when they went through the electric nutrunner portion. I work for another automotive manufacturer and we also use Atlas-Copco electric tooling. We using the exact same tools, controllers, and programs shown in the video. Never thought I'd see the equipment I manage daily to build very "normal" vehicles anywhere near a Koenigsegg build process... might be time for a career change!
Christian is the Tony Stark of HyperCars. Genius in disguise.
This is the epitomy of knowing your baby in and out. Just the fact that Christian knows every single part of the motor and trans is unbelievable. Compared to other manufacturers. Hats of to you Sir..👏🏼👏🏼💪💯🎉🎉🎉
i dont like the term hypercar i have never see a car where that title made sense to me .. Koenigsegg is what a hypercar shoud be
This is my first time watching this and it's the closest thing to how I imagined future of vehicles would become when I was a teenager.
The level of precision, care and dedication is inspiring. Right now, it really makes most of the industry feel like dust.
Thankyou for the video.
Loved every second
I could never get enough of these tours with you and christian, I simply love it. Would like for you to lift the air core seat and the rim next time if possible!
Finally a new video from JWW, I could not wait for it, you can really see your passion for cars, and what a factory and story from the company, love it. :)
More Koenigsegg content please!! Just amazing watching and learning what they do
Fascinating. He has the same passion and focus on detail as Pagani. Way different vehicles, but both are tributes to engineering excellence.
I'm deeply impressed at the herringbone on the chassis itself. I've never seen anything like that in my time in composites. I need to go work for Koenigsegg
such a masterpiece, top of the industry
This is what happens when passion and vision come together to build a company. Other brands CEO´s have much more of a corporate attitude, sometimes not even aware of whats going on at the engineering departament. Whats sets CVK apart is his true passion for the subject and envolvement on everything the coompany does. A truly inspirational character!
This has got to be a dream come true for James. Being able to have such fantastic conversation with Christian is a joy to watch.
The innovation of this company is on another scale. Simply amazing.
This completely explains why their cars are the price they are and gives you another level of respect for the car if you are lucky enough to own one. James, I wish you could convince Damon and Dave to get one, lol.
I love his passion for the cars, most CEO’s are just there for the business end of things but it looks like he loves his job. Christian seems like such a nice guy and he really knows his cars. Koenigsegg has always been one of my favorites, and every time I see him take someone around the factory he talks to them like an actual person and not like some 4 year old. Love this brand so much and I can’t wait to see what they have in store!
Man! Seeing this I soo want to be a mechanical engineer and make engines.
Best CAR VIDEOS, I have ever seen. Thanks, mr. JWW and mr. Koenigsegg.
I never get tired of koenigsegg tech
In my view the best car's on the planet, so beautiful. Other companies could learn so much from Koenigsegg and Christian seems such a nice guy.
Koenigsegg is truly a work of art and one of the leaders in innovation in the hyper car scene!
The respect I have for Christian and the Koenigsegg team is humungous, he can take you to a factory tour and explain every single thing to nuts and bolts in detail, this man is a fricking genius! More over their factory looks like an automotive science lab, it is so cool! So glad James joined the Koenigsegg family cause their cars will go down in history for sure.
Oh wow!!! Just wow. Whilst Porsche, Aston, Lamborghini and even Ferrari chase mainstream with their SUVs and so on, these guys and Pagani and Rimac etc come out of the ground. GT car, Supercar, Hypercar, the spirit lives on. Necessary. Essential. Absolutely love it. 🔥
I really enjoy your videos but the Koenigsegg content is a must watch for me! Thank you 🙏🏼 it’s just incredible engineering and Christian just seems to be a true gentleman in his toy store.
Thank you, James for such a rare opportunity to see a glimpse into automotive mastery. Christian's vision is astounding. Hats off, Sir...
What an eye opener!! The engineering behind the product is what does it for me. Kids in the sweet shop!
