Koenigsegg has gone a long way from being badly in debt (at a pathetic amount of less than one of their cars) to taking over Saab. Despite the busy months, Koenigsegg has been able to come up with something to feature in the upcoming Frankfurt show.
Meet the Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita. Not much change has been made from the “standard” CCXR. Power still comes from a twin-supercharged V8 that generates 806 bhp and 782 lb-ft of torque. This allows the car go from stand still to 62 mph in just 3.1 seconds.
For the other tweaks, the Trevita gets a double carbon wing, flappy-paddle shifters, and inconell exhaust system, carbon ceramic brakes with ABS, and a swanky new instrument cluster.
“Trevita” which means “three white” ditches the black carbon fiber body panels in favor of Koenigsegg’s own “Diamond Weave.” Koenigsegg claims that the car “sparkles like millions of silvery white diamonds infused inside the visible carbon fiber weave bodywork.” Koenigsegg, apparently, was able to coat the fibers with a diamond finish.
