Introduced at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show and built as a limited production run from the 2016 model year through 2022, this nameplate marked a distinct shift in Koenigsegg’s lineup. Rather than pursuing the brand’s usual hard-edged, track-focused formula, it was conceived as a grand touring megacar: still extreme, but designed to blend high performance with more everyday comfort, refinement, and usability. Koenigsegg built only 80 examples in total, which has made it one of the marque’s most exclusive modern models.
Its significance lies in the way it rethought the traditional supercar layout. The car used the company’s Direct Drive concept, pairing a twin-turbo V8 with electric assistance and eliminating a conventional multi-gear transmission. That approach gave the model a very different character from earlier Koenigseggs and helped establish it as one of the brand’s most innovative production cars. It also introduced several signature features that later became talking points for the company, including its fully automated body-closure system and a highly advanced hybrid battery architecture.
In the broader Koenigsegg story, the model sits at the end of the Agera-era philosophy and before the arrival of the Jesko, bridging the gap between old-school combustion hypercars and the brand’s next generation of hybrid-era engineering. For collectors and enthusiasts, it is remembered not just for rarity, but for representing one of the clearest expressions of Koenigsegg’s willingness to reinvent what a road-going performance car could be.
