My favorite car brand simply because of the man running it. A humble and self made man, who also happens to be a mad scientist whipping up the baddest cars on the planet. Never change Christian
I love how Humble, Intelligent and down to earth he is. I could listen to him talk cars all day!!! No other car maker would give u a tour and actually engage in conversation and want to tell u about their cars. christian is a legend!!!!
@@creativeearthian1702 Well Mate Rimac did start from turning his old bmw 335i which engine blew up during a drift competition then he swapped the engine with his own electric motors and batteries.
Koenigsegg and the man himself Christian's transparency in their production line is like no other exotic brand. You could sneeze on a Ferrari and they would send a cease and desist meanwhile Koenigsegg's doors are wide open to media. Makes the brand so much more respectable on top of their marvels of engineering.
@@kimsj7305 Ohlins is very well known for their amazing suspension in the mountain bike community and i have no doubt their suspension for the car performs well for the Koenigsegg.
I wish I could have a conversation with Christian, he's so passionate about what he does and his knowledge is second to none. I am always fascinated by all the details about every piece he explains and can never get enough. Great video guys!
@@Muhluri but why? yeah its a 3 cylinder but the dark matter e motors make 800hp and are waaaay lighter and have permanent torque. one in the front, one in the back. awd miata goes zooomin with 1600hp and 2500nm haha
I had the pleasure of meeting and taking a picture with Christian at an event. He is probably the nicest and most humble hypercar manufacturer right alongside Mate Rimac. An absolute genius this guy is.
23:48 This company is so amazing and the engineering so responsible that they use their cars to send power BACK to the factory grid. As an economist, I love this passion for efficiency.
I think we all as the car community owe Christian a thank you. He does things the right way no matter how difficult or easy. He builds things in house because he can do it best. If there are problems with cars he addresses it immediately and is honest about the problem. He lets people see how things are developed and made because he is a car guy. He knows how fascinating it is. He is patient and diligent in his explinations. He treats everyone with respect. What a genuine human being. Cars are (almost) never made this way anymore. We are blessed to have both Mate and Christian pushing the boundaries!
guys, the car makes so much power, it's tied into the power grid of the building...they are powering the factory. probably a very small percentage, but still...holy shit...
I had around 10 minutes with Christian at Goodwood Festival of Speed, maybe 5/6 years ago, such a great guy to talk to and such a passion for what he does, the world is a better place for what has created, simply a legend 👊👍
As a Swede Christian von Koenigsegg is one of my idols and a great inspiration!! The Man has no bounds when it comes to ideas and ingenuity and is a true class act!!
Every time I hear Christian talk about any aspect of his cars, I realize he knows every single aspect of every car they build. The depth of his knowledge is virtually unheard of for someone in his position
I try to explain the insane engineering and process involved with Koenigsegg's to people who say they are into cars..... all i get is a blank stare. They just don't understand how crazy the cars are and where they're going in the future. Top car company in my eyes.
Absolutely love Christian for his vision and kindness. He's such a fun person at least through the media that we get to see. Definitely someone I'd love to have a drink with and talk cars.
Videos with Christian is always so intense and filled with facts. This guy is so amazing and as a Swede it makes me proud! I met him back in 2001 and he showed the CC8 to me in Margrethetorp.
eh, they just see things/ keywords that rich people would recognize and have stuff to talk about when someone asks “why did you spend 2+ mil on a car??”
This has to be the most impressive people in the hyper car world. From the factory all the way to the final product. Everything is incredible. The fact that they manufacture everything themselves might be the most impressive part.
Christian Von Koenigsegg is the most humble and educated car-brand founder I have ever seen... very insightful and a great video- hope to see more content with him!
Christian von Koenigsegg is one of the most humble person ever who built a super car company. The way he introduces the factory to every youtuber who gets the chance to visit the inside of his factory .. also he is always seen smiling and talking to customers and viewers even outside Sweden.. Also he is one of the craziest person to create such beasts yet beautiful pieces of art in the eyes of automotive enthusiasts. Love from India
18:30 I Love that CvK wants to keep the emotional part of designing a car. That is the key to the whole company thriving. These cars are built with love
It's amazing to see the effort Christian puts into his brand, it's insane making almost every component in house! That really shows that it's dedication is no joke! Absolute perfection! Thanks for allowing us to see behind doors!
Yeah what's the deal with that? And why where they following them around. Super creepy and completely took my focus off the video. I even scrolled down to look for comments about it.
For those who don’t know, that factory is in Ängelholm, in Skåne in Sweden. I was there just two days ago. I was going to a museum very close. And through the big windows I could see a Cc850 and a Jesko standing there. That’s cool!
The crazy thing is that you see the owner of the brand completely understand the construction of the cars that are being produced, not just a CEO, a true enthusiast and car lover, with everything, so we have a person who lives and has everything he would dream of having
The Hamilton Collection Absolutely Incredible Video I think it's awesome that Christian Von Koenigsegg gave you another Tour of the Koenigsegg Factory and that he let witness those absolutey incredible Dyno Runs and I can't wait to see your Jesko on the channel
I love the fact that a man that is as passionate about cars as he is. Is making them the way he wants and not a cookie cutter factory like most. God if only i could afford one...
Christian is one of the most amazing humans on earth right now and his company is blowing up soo big.. everyone in the world wants a Koenigsegg and he's super wealthy but still drives to work in a Mazda Miata 😊 what an amazing man.. He's never stuck up he's always humble and he listens to everyone and answers every question... I dont think I've ever seen another boss I would love to work for.. what a fuckin G 👏
I swear one day I'll own a koenigsegg. This is my favorite car company ever. EVERYTHING is made in-house. No one does that ever. Reliability and dependability under one roof.
My opinion, you could have just done full screen black and white for easier editing when needed, rather than just trying to do patches. But you do what you guys wanna do! Doesnt really matter to me either way
@@peterlacey5187 to hide customer specced cars. So no one can see the colors. It was subtle since it was rarely full wcreen, it was generally a square patch changing the color of the cars on the assembly lines

Ive said this plenty of times on many different channels but Christian Von Koenigsegg is a mad scientist and so humble about it.
Whatch😊 out Tesla.
He is great for gas gas.
And drives a miata
True, Cristian is at least 10 years in the future compared to anyone else 🔥
a mad man and i love it
Christian driving a Miata to his own company that produces some of the most insane cars in the world shows that he just loves cars.
and how great the NA mx-5 is and why it is the most raced car in the world.

What I love about Koenigsegg is they make all their own stuff, from the monocoques to a wheel hub and the wiring! Just amazing! What a company!
Yup thats why I rate them above the rest
Only thing that they don’t do is damper to suspension. It’s from a Swedish company called Öhlins and also exhaust on Regera.
Also Rimac and Pagani !!
@@kimsj7305 Exhaust on Regera is from Croat "Akrapovic" based in Slovenia and Hybrid Battery system on Regera is Croatian RIMAC ✌️😎

Christian driving his Miata to Koenigsegg Headquarters shows off his dedication. Wow!
imagine christian buys another miata and fits it either with the 1600hp v8 or 2 dark matter electric motors just for fun ^^
@@mogelkaiser1876 nice idea
The gemera 3 cylinder makes the most sense tbh

and ofc the car frame has to be upgraded for that amount of power. but they could make it a custom carbon monocoque
Man: Do you guys also repair the crash cars?
Mr Königsegg :We only repair them for more crashing
Hardly needs repairs too, it’s so durable.
@@Chris72717 joke or?
@@ed8001dont you see its “crash testing”?
thank you bro ..i am deaf i thought why they laughing☺

Christian really loves this, it's no joke.
You can't compete with someone who's doing what they love, I love this man 🇿🇦
Of all the dynos I’ve seen I’ve never seen one that advanced, but I expect nothing less from Koenigsegg!!!
guys, the car makes so much power, it's tied into the power grid of the building...they are powering the factory. probably a very small percentage, but still...holy shit...
