Koenigsegg one need for speed wanted
Look at those lines! That flow! Now you can see that this is so much more than a car. But this demonstrates for me the genius of the Koenigsegg design ethos. I could have shown you the others which are more conventionally angled. It’s an incredibly normal place that extraordinary things emerge from and I’m thinking that’s because of the people inside. Sean and Rod visited the facility at the start of 2013, so I’ll not dwell too much on the surroundings (just make sure you head back to that link and take a look around at just how things work). That was an achievement in the middle of a long line that includes revolutionary flooring systems, music storage devices and is capped (for now) with having just launched the world’s most powerful production car, the first megawatt car. Stood on the right, the cars (that word is not enough to describe them) that leave here are direct descendants of the first model Christian created when he was 22 years old in 1994. Maybe he’s invented his own? It wouldn’t surprise me. Watching him deal with matters on the workshop floor makes me question whether he’s even operating with the same concept of time that I have. His appears accelerated and complex in ways I can’t even comprehend. But somehow there’s a disconnect between our two realities.
I know that might sound like an odd thing to say given the fact that I’m stood here in the Swedish factory he established in an old aircraft hangar. I want to live in the same world that Christian von Koenigsegg does.
