I could listen to Christian talk about stuff for more than 40 minutes for sure.
So underrated
I could do this all day.
No doubt about it
I was hoping the video never ended
it's insane
Same. Picking his Brain will be fun
Christian has to be one of the most humble genius's ever to have graced us on this planet. He is excited to show you EVERYTHING and talks to everyone as if they're walking around a stock 55 Chevy 2 door post! What an absolute gentleman. He builds my favorite vehicle, not that I'd ever be able to afford one, but it is still my favorite. This is so well done, and so flipping cool!!! Thank you both!
He’s a really great guy with a brilliant team
He's the real BFG like the engine from the Gemera
So glad he made the Gemera a car and not succumb to the industry pressure of making an SUV. Love it!
Well said. The aliens definitely gave us someone special. 🖖🏽
Yeah, you can that this video could be 8hrs long and still have more! ❤🤯
Christian is constantly chasing engineering perfection. It's clear that he has carefully considered every single component on his cars. You can tell that he absolutely loves what he does.
combustion engine car is dead
@Jesus has given you all. Repent or die. Such a random video to comment this on.
@@MrJarenko0097 With a good enough catalytic converter like the ones MIT are working on that can capture all CO2 emissions they are far from dead my friend. It is a shame that Koenigsegg is not working on a super efficient standard road car. Imagine a carbon fibre monocoque four seater that has a top speed of 80miles an hour and gets 100 miles per gallon?
Electric cars still have the issue of extremely heavy and environmentally harmful batteries. The production capabilities and techniques are already so efficient for combustion engines that they can produce them way more efficient than any electric car.
Perhaps you were talking about hydrogen powered cars? They are still combustion powered I guess...
@@plantatheist5883 thank goodness for that. Plus don’t forget about synthetic fuels 👍🔥
I don't believe anyone loves what they do more...
When you see how passionate Christian is about all the interesting mini details makes me smile.
I told my wife, if we ever come into crazy money, I’m buying a Koenigsegg. She asked, “is that a famous sculpture”? Yeah, yes it is.
yeah asculpture you can drive,who woyuld have thought
The fact that he knows EVERYTHING about his car's is unreal. Its hard to imagine all the other car manufacturing CEO's know this much on the spot about their car's
Elon with tesla(someone Christian admits to admiring, rj scaringe with rivian, Peter Rawlins with lucid, mate rimac who runs rimac automobile all might know as much about their companies vehicle's. 🤔
What happens when the designer is still the owner.
@@4literv6 john hennessey and former dodge exec knew their stuff too. And of course enzo ferrari
It's nice when you don't have 10 cars that are constantly changing.
@@sirena7116 agreed. That's what I like about the super-marques like EB, Kngsg, Deusenberg, (first era) Cadillac, etc. They focus on beautiful cars that stay until their time is up. Case in point, the huayra from pagani is a decade old, and yet it looks like it has yet to start production.
Those mind blowing moments when Christian explains that ( very small compared to others ) gearbox and tells you:
" we are not shifting gears, we are clutching" and the scary thing is that he not only explains it very well,
he and his engineers have invented that stuff and actually make it work ! That man is a genius not only because of the tech he invents,
but to create a car company around it that is actually profitable and gives jobs to hundreds of people.
And while he talks, you can always feel that excitement, that joy. He lives and breathes Koenigsegg, every single day.
Well said!
That's why Christian is the best,he know all his car and his product that they produce like the back of his hand, pretty impressive consider not alot of top leader know almost everything about their company
Well no, those transmissions are used in tractors for the last 40 years, they just refined it. Anyway very cool design
It's almost like he IS Koenigsegg... oh wait :D
Christian is the only car company owner that actually design engineer and knows his cars inside out even to the last bolt. It's amazing. Nobody else in the world is like him.
In his office above the weird model he presented was another scale model of a Tucker 45 model that was a very revolutionary car, with plenty features way ahead for it's time build by Preston Tucker.. So i think Mr. Cristian got inspired and decided to honor few early significant pioneers that contribute to auto industry in early days..
Horacio P too
Gordon Murray?
Mate Rimac?
alam ko
Since I first heard of Koenigsegg and free valve I've always been surprised how far a head they are of the rest of the car industry. And that for a relatively small company. Huge respect for these guys. I'm still bummed that the deal to buy saab didn't work out. We would have had the most advanced saab's ever.
Yes.. what a saab that should be!
saab are saab story not worth it they suck
@@startingtech3900 ofcourse not, it was great cars.
a small company with military and F1 tech isnt small if you think about it. There is a lot happening behind the ''scenes''.
They plan on using AI to maximize the parameters of free valve...for all fuels. As you probably know, but for the sake of other readers: this valve train doesn't require a conventional throttle and can switch from 2 stroke aspiration...to four stroke miller cycle within milliseconds. With AI pushing boundaries, we may discover fueling and timing parameters that would have taken years of research, solved in very little time.
Wow. Being a Design Engineer myself, the level these guys go to is out of this world. A mix of F1 and fighter jet technology, all wrapped up in a beautifully crafted, aesthetically pleasing carbon tub. Unreal.
I'd LOVE to have access to their knowledgebase and engineering might to create cars that may not be 5-figure but low 6-figure and still bring similar excellence to cars people would drive to work and across Europe.
Imagine these guys getting serious about a car to bitch slap a stationwagon such an E62, Panamera Turbo S, etc.
Decent composite frame, Gemera like drivetrain with perhaps 2 inline torque converters, or one TV plus a 3spd gearbox that helps the electric drivetrain run cool. If the base level is €200-300K rather than all optioned out, a lot can be done and plenty would be sold. Even a "bland" all-electric Koenigsegg super-Volvo V90 would absolutely be bought in numbers.
@@Cloxxki it ain't that easy bruh
Cool to hear from somebody who knows that stuff from real
@@william_SMMA Nothing is actually easy. But these people have skills. If other brands had it, they'd show it off.
@@Cloxxki I'm talking about where you mentioned bringing Koenigsegg tech to mundane vehicles to be sold en masse
lol you think a 3 cylinder engine producing 600hp is cheap, what about freevalve? Direct Drive
The only way to beat the established brands is to make it cheaper than the competition or make it amazing value for the money
and koenigsegg simply has no tech that is immediately valued by people looking for a station wagon or cheap sedan lol
there's cars for $40k that have 500hp and tons of fun behind the gas pedal
Koenigsegg as a company is just a tad bit profitable, their ground breaking tech actually costs that much
Coming from an engineer's perspective, videos like this are heavenly. Koenigsegg is the company I consider a dream job; you don't have to depend at all on what's available on the parts market. If you need a component, you design and manufacture a bespoke part. I can't begin to describe how fantastic that is.
Probably the most creatively free environment in vehicle manufacturing.
100%
Yep, at least for other than electrical parts that applies.
@@wopmf4345FxFDxdGaa20 That's not necessarily true. I'm 99% sure Koenigsegg has its own electrical engineers, and in-house circuit card printing and soldering equipment. It's not all that expensive, either. You just need to be able to source silicon.
It is a shame they only work on super cars for the mega rich. Imagine a standard road car developed by Koenigsegg... How many miles per gallon would you get from a production line car fitted with a carbon fibre monocoque to reduce weight? Add an infinitely more efficient engine, aerodynamic profile, breaking and suspension...
Christian is a national treasure! So inspiring and incredibly passionate. Love watching him talk about his creations!
A swedish national treasure
*International treasure
Christian is always a treat. This guy has already stamped his name in the history books. He's constantly pushing the limits of engineering and what I love the most is that he does what he loves with no external pressures.
And most of not secretive about it, awesome
Wow, wow, wow - MEGA content here - so personal. Only 2 minutes in and this is again on another level. Thanks for sharing! 👍🙏
Wow, thanks!
Agreed. That first pull with the door open tho 😍😍
I love how Mr. Koenigsegg asks his employee if he can open the door to the dyno room and he owns everything in the building. Just goes to show you what kind of person he is and says a lot about his products.👍
Owning a place and not walking around like you own a place is very telling about one's character.
Edit: He seems to have respect for the people he employs. They do not seem to be his subordinates, but equal parts on the same mission.
@@im3phirebird81 Good point, especially tha latter part. Think that is very intentional and a key component of their ability to transform crazy and innovative ideas to production like this. He talks about his team like they're a hive mind of people sharing the same passion. Maybe that's part of the success?
It's Sweden after all, not the vulgar place that is the US. It is what you'd expect.
@@im3phirebird81 he seems to be working with them a lot more than them working for him
Also respect and role model for safety. The Dyno area is hazardous. Good practice to check before entering.
I'm not really a "car guy" or understand most of what's talked about in this video but I still watched it all. I have a lot of respect for the amount of work & engineering skill that's put into these cars. Very glad to hear that they are sharing their technology with other industries as that will help raise the bar in a lot of areas.
Thanks for watching 😃👍🏻
Legendary!!! Can't think of any other manufacturer coming closer!!?? No corporate BS just engineering a dream!! Pure perfection
Dude is the coolest guy in the car industry. I can’t imagine someone in the world not loving and respecting the hell out of this man ✊✊
Yeah I just wish I had money to throw at him. I bet every set of keys comes with his personal phone number 😆
@@StanleyKubick1 wouldn’t surprise me!!
He's such an engineering nerd and I love it.
The only time in my life I have been star struck, was when I got the seat behind Christian on my flight to Europe. What an incredible man! He didn't even fly Business Class for his long haul, he flew Economy Comfort.
Every time I see a factory tour with Christian I'm blown away. What is awesome is that isn't just him involved. There's an army of absolute talent alongside him making this dream happen without the heavy constraints and compromises demanded by accountants, shareholders, and executives. They're all on the same page, working together to just make awesome cars and it is such a refreshing change to see this attitude and mindset thrive in the automotive space. I have massive respect for CVK, his company, and his entire team. The only true constraints they have to work with are legal requirements for noise, safety and the environment, the laws of physics and thermodynamics, and their own imagination.
I love the fact that he is excited to SHARE these amazing technologies with other manufacturers. It’s so refreshing to hear someone so successful and innovative be so kind and care about making the world a better place for us all. You are a true inspiration CVK! And thank u Mr. JWW for brining us this delightful content.
Your final comment absolutely nailed it - ‘starting to look like good value’.
The thought, craft, and leading tech Christian and his team put into their cars is absolutely next level. Worth every penny and then some! 🙌🏼
Imagine your neighbor spent millions on a Pagani and you arrive home in a Jesko or Gemera. The level of technology just doesn't compare. Ferrari flagships are agricultural in comparison in oh so many ways.
It seems Christian has embrace the idea of scaling up, having seen his recent intern Mate Rimac do well for himself and recently having been convinced to take custodianship of Bugatti ;-)
@@Cloxxki Koenigsegg is my favorite car manufacturer on the planet but I'd hardly feel like I had a "lesser" car if I owned a Pagani and my neighbor had an Egg. Just because Pagani doesn't go to such extreme lengths when it comes to tech and performance doesn't mean their cars are worse or not worth as much. It's just two different philosophies.
Making James look like a party enthusiast, the amount of new tech per square inch on the projects is unbelievable. Actual ground up engineering firm, being run by engineers. Mr Koenigsegg is so involved, knows the nooks and crannies of all components, it's cause, design changes, every freakin thing. Thanks for sharing.
I'm mind boggled that no matter what part of the factory he went to or what part he pointed at he could name it proper and explain exactly what it does!
Q would be jealous 😂
Only one word I can think of that describes Christian and Koenigsegg as a company: Unbelievable. The sheer amount of knowledge Christian has and his level of excitement when he’s talking about ALL the different features is just awesome. This is a man who had a dream, and never let “the sky is the limit” prevent him from doing more. Remarkable. I love Christian and I love Koenigsegg.
Just goes to show how happy, involved and into his craft Christian is; business men should inspire to be like this legend
Absolute class!! .........very few words can describe the passion Christian has about his company his products and his belief in it all ......take a bow!!🙌🙌
Christian is an amazing person, he really should be proud of what he’s created. Giving the world not just kinetic art in the form of beautiful mega cars but cutting edge technology as well. Very very cool!
CVK explaining every details from part to part is amazing. Not many company bosses can do or explain with similar passion like CVK does.
I'm sure whoever works there will benefit a lot having him as their Leader of the company.
This man will go down in time as one of the greatest automotive names ever. Just astonishing work right there.
They have transcended the automotive industry and entered the realm of fine jewellery
Absolutely bonkers technology. I'm an industrial electrical engineering and I do understand what they are saying. But the hardware they are using is absolutely stunning. What a car company. What fantastic designer's. What an epic video James....thankyou 👍🙏🙏🙏
Dear Mr. Koenigsegg, I love you!
This planet would be boring without you!
I love how he answers all the questions in a simple straightforward manner so that anyone watching can understand. That's hallmark genius to distill content like that.
The openness to also allow this video tour also blows my mind. I have not seen anything blurred out or a question that was off limits.
This was incredible. Thanks so much for sharing. Definitely my fav manufacturer these days with crazy innovation and of course Christian being so humble and so much of a normal guy.
Literally sounds like a guy you could talk to in a shop or passing on a sidewalk
And this is why it has the price it has. Worth every penny. Wow.
The question should be why it's not twice the price of a relatively mass produced Bugatti.
All Koenigsegg owners with +1 can fit in a cozy theater.
For the Bugatti owners lcub, you'd need a large concert hall.
Mind blowing... Christian is amazing every time I watch a video he's in. We hear so much about Musk, Gates, jobs, but Christian also deserves to be at tech icon level also.
I am pissed off that UA-cam's algo wasn't recommending this video on time. I can listen to two people in the auto industry for hours: Christian Von Koenigsegg and Mate Rimac. Thank you for this excellent video.
The car needs no comment but let’s take a moment to appreciate what an awesome work environment that is. Fair play to CvK for creating this dream company for dream cars.
I bet some engineers got divorced to go work there.
@@Cloxxki i hope they brought their wives and kids with them, sweden seems like a nice place to live
@@G..S if you have money
Christian is the most awesome person in the automotive industry, no competition. So innovative, and so open to speak about it all, great guy!!
Yeah he doewnt do it for free, his cars are the most expensive and not to mention unoptainable largely, also try and get an insurance for a car woth 3 mil euros. Also the service is crap, since you need to take the car and send it to sweden in order to get it repaired
@@InFlamesor12 wah wah fuckin wah.
@@InFlamesor12 Oh. So you own/owned one?
I am pretty sure there are service and repair in different parts of the world.
The only time i could think of that you would need to send it back to the factory is if there is damage done to the chassis.
Or perhaps if you need to rebuild the engine.
Can’t put in words how much I admire that guy…
this has to be one of the greatest and most interesting videos I've ever seen. Christian is truly a blessing to the motorsport world.
100+ years of huge companies making gearboxes and on the death bed of ICE cars, it's to Koenigsegg to design that gearbox.
They just make everyone else seem unmotivated shopping cart engineers.
I really hope they'll make a serious effort to lap the Jesko Attack.
As a nerd I have so much respect for this man and company, they just take things so much further, and often in a way that just makes more sense.
I really like how meticulous he is with the specs.The Engineering being sophisticated yet explains it in a simple concise manner .Christian is such a class act guy
I love how Christian gives credit to Saab on the AC vent, what a humble genius he is.
Wow, the transparency is unreal. Sharing such information is insanely crazy but you also get to experience the passion from CVK.
Just awesome! Can’t get enough content on Koenigsegg! Christian and team are doing some truly amazing design and engineering that is so fun to get an inside look at under the skin and behind the scenes of these cars. Thank you James and Christian!
Christian is an automotive pioneer who keeps making history! Never get tired listening to the man!
So proud as a swede watching this. Purely brilliant engineering and they couldnt have a more humble and cool CEO. Christian Von Koenigsegg really seems like a great guy.
Christian is great at explaining complicated engineering while being engaging & digestible so you can understand what he saying.
The 9 speed lights peed gearbox needs to be licensed to be used in motorsport. It would be incredible in F1, WEC, GT3, WRC...
The Gamera rear has the look of Porsche 918 with rear high mounted exhausts.
Only think not keen in is the Jesko Attack name it does not have the same flow as Jesko Absolute. Jesko Chrono I feel sounds better and has similar reference to achieving maximum track laptime.
Just need a big lottery win and 2 build slots for a Gamera & Jesko Absolute 😎🤞
F1 bans any preselection of gears, so there has to be an actual shift between one gear to another. Given that limitation, an F1 seamless transmission is still another masterpiece of engineering.
@@456MrPeople The individual clutches act as the gear selectors and you can shift between any gears so there is no pre-selection to next gear. I think these transmissions would be legal in F1 but if not there are other motorsport categories.
@@gh0str1d3r00 F1 needs only sequentials. It's why Cosworth came up with the IGS. The first to actually do an IGS was Honda. The IGS is witchcraft, it has no delay between the gears and torque is continuous, but it is still sequential. It cannot jump from any gear to any gear.
When you look at the price of these cars, you think the profit margins must be insane but then you watch these videos of Christian explaining the components, technology and innovation inside the chassis and the level of detail. They definitely deserve to charge whatever they want for these cars.
If at least for the patented tech he makes.
The fact he's building the most advanced hyper cars in the world and he's doing it all with in-house development and manufacturing; simply mind boggling.
why is mr. koenigsegg sooooo kind and humble....
he deserves where he is
Christian is an example of someone that loves and lives his job! 👍🏼
Fantastiskt, jag blir nästan tårögd. Man blir inspirerad av Koenigseggs passion vilket gör att man vill jobba ännu hårdare på sin egen.
How excited he was to be interviewed jusy shows how much people enjoy working for Christian and being able to make the most insane crazy car amazing!! Thank you amazing video
Sweden is such an innovative country, just love it!
Probably one of your best videos and one of the most informative, helpful and fun auto videos on any car UA-camr channels. Christian is one of the best car developers alive today. Great video and very well done. Thanks James
Thanks buddy 😎🏁
Well, sorry but I´m just lost for words....we visited (Lotus Club of Sweden) Christian back in 99 at Margretetorp and he hasn´t change a bit, he showed us everything, no secrets at all with the same enthusiasm and knowledge as now, a great example of a man with no limitations everything is possible! Great video!
Its so nice to see you completely genuinely awestruck for 30 minutes you can really tell Christian feeds off of the emotion. Best video ive seen with Koenigsegg and theyve made quite a few good ones.
Thanks buddy it’s a real honour to share it
It is so cool to see Christian inside the workshop and knows everything about the cars, definitely the epitome of bosses
Christian is such an amazing speaker, and interviewee. I'm sure jww was fed a list of questions that needed to be asked and ones that were forbidden, but he did such a great Job. And the whole interview flowed naturally
Genuinely I had free reign it was as natural as it was 😅
@@MrJWW thats so awesome. Not many automaker's or CEO's would risk an interview that isn't skewed in their favor. You did an amazing job dude. The whole interview just felt like 2 buddies havin a chat
The absolute pinnacle of automotive engineering! Congrats Christian!
”we put in a little more effort than everyone else”, yea no sh*t, some people say you become addicted with the things you love, but christian has literally lost his sh*t. Love it
It never ceases to amaze me how enthusiastic Christian is and how he knows every minute detail about his cars! Very few owners/CEOs can attest to that. Love this guy!
I am very blessed with the job I have but I honestly think I would move my family to Sweden for the opportunity to work at Koenigsegg! Everything they do is so amazing I would love to be a part of it.
This just makes you appreciate this cars even more. Thank you Christian and James for bringing us this, can’t wait for the next video
Christian looks so proud listening to his engineers..He continues to be the most forward thinker in automotives..great video..cheers to the Koenigsegg team🤘🤘🤘
Cant wait to see the next episode where you drive the Gemera. I really wonder what that TFG engine sounds like?
James, thanks for bringing us in the stunning Koenigsegg factory.
Christian a d his team are producing a masterpieces. Hats down to their extraordinary work 👏🙌
It’s a pleasure, thanks for watching and more to come!
@@MrJWW i can't wait...mmmm
This is the first time I’ve actually understood the value of these hypercars other than its rarity. His cars actually undervalued in my POV after learning all these stuffs. Damn.
One of my favorite CEOs/Owners.. I can listen to him tell his life story all day long. So focused, very knowledgeable, so excitingly involved with everything and he seems very humble & approachable. 👍
So glad this company is making these. Years from now these cars will be priceless.
Thank you for taking us to paradise. Christian is such a nice guy and what an automotive mastermind, creating the best HyperCard without compromise.
The nerd in me is beyond satisfied! I love his passion for engineering and design. He makes it so easy to understand.
Hah look at this guy. Acting like he understands it all based on superficial explanations.
@@Stierenkloot Everyone doesn't have this inability comprehending things that do not strictly adhere to ISO standards.
Wow, Christian’s knowledge is off the scale, can listen to him and never get bored. He makes it so easy for us to understand.
Epic!!!
Thank you for sharing this with us 👍👍👍👍
A teacher once told me: “you are not an great engineer in you know all the jargon, you are when you can explain it to a little kid what you are doeing. He is the perfect example of that
came from big name but so humble, that's the reason why I love every piece of this man art
Would love to see some content focused on the engineers and techs working at Koenignegg. Not taking anything way from Christian but that factory must be brimming with remarkable people.
He’s so humble. Good to see really
Such a huge value for any content creator on UA-cam to have the CEO and inventor of lot of the technology coming along and talking about this stuff. Can't think of any other CEO that would do this.
Christian is a gift and irreplaceable for the spirit of racing and its vision. I hope we will enjoy his creations for a long time and that he will continue to keep the world of automobiles on their toes and at the same time shock them.
Fascinating stuff. I am so impressed with how much innovation and inventiveness Koenigsegg engineers are producing but also how passionate Christian is
Everytime I watch videos with Christian I always keep smiling to how crazy things can get and how simply he describes it!
These kind of long videos are one of my best!
@Adrian Munoz exactly!!
Imagine how much you have to be skilled to be working there, such a blast tour
Mind is completely blown, but the technology and the man himself!!! Genius with a passion to share his technology to the world!
Well done James, you managed to change my opinion on this brand.
I always considered those cars as overpriced low volume pimped cars but I wasn’t aware of all the specific and in-house development linked with prototype-like technologies.
Impressive
James loved this video. What was evident to me was that, Christian is an alien and speaks another language. I’m with you, I felt small and simple when he was describing certain components of the car and explaining why materials were used over others. Pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the world of engineering. Great insights!!!!
koenigsegg's willingness to be transparent about almost every facet of their development is the ultimate expression of confidence.
*Koenigeggs never ceases in pulling out all the stops.* Like your last factory documentary, this is another great insight into this legendary factory. Great job Mr JWW!
It looks like a nice place to work. There's no yelling, everyone looks relaxed and calm around Christian. It takes an amazing group of people to design and build an amazing car.
love love LOVE this content. I'm a huge nerd for this kind of technical information and no-one does it better than CVK.
Koenigsegg just built different. Incredible innovation and the founder/head of the company is happy to give filmed tours like this. Seems like a really nice guy too.
FAN-tastic. Enjoyed every second. Great vibe and CHRISTIAN VON KOENIGSEGG is such a cool, nice guy.
I love this guy, knows exactly what he's doing, super smart and thinks everything through
Did you notice how young his workforce is? It took me by huge surprise i dont think i saw a single person look over 35!
Koenigsegg is going to be some the day the number 1 hyper car manufacturer!!!They impress since day 1 again and again!!!One day all ta manufaturers will look up to Koenigsegg!!!👏👏👏👏⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👌
What A Wonderful Host
Christian Is A Genius And
Definitely Not Ego Driven
He Is Always Smiling
And Loves What He Does
One of the greatest minds in the automotive industry, excited for this one
I’ve always loved your obvious enthusiasm and hard work in your videos, James. For many more personal reasons beyond that I thank you from the bottom of my heart for this one in particular.
You’re too kind thanks Niels 🙏🏼
This was like a Smarter Every Day video. The more I watched the more I wanted to learn more about each thing that was covered. It was impossible to look away!
Out of all the sports/ exotic/ supper car manufacturers, I have always enjoyed seeing footage from Koenigsegg the most. There's this, oh so something very special, very laid back, casual, but professional feel that I get from seeing videos about the Koenigsegg factory.
Then seeing the car being made. That has always fascinated me. Especially knowing they are fully made out of carbon fiber.
I would love to have a Koenigsegg, and it not even painted any color. Just a mat clear over the carbon fiber.
