Koenigsegg CC8S

The Koenigsegg CC8S reaches 60 mph in 3.24 s (100 km/h in 3.36 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 11.04 s, tripping the lights at 128.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.78 s and the eighth mile in 7.19 s, reaching 100 mph in 6.87 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the CC8S

The 2002 Koenigsegg CC8S is a rear-drive turbocharged supercar of 1,175 kg with 654 bhp, which works out at 557 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 557 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.78 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 429th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest five per cent, and the 15th quickest of the 17 Koenigseggs here. Its 128.6 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 5 of 5 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.

Questions

What is the Koenigsegg CC8S 0-60 time?
The Koenigsegg CC8S reaches 60 mph in 3.24 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 429th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Koenigsegg CC8S quarter mile time?
11.04 s at 128.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.19 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.78 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Koenigsegg CC8S have?
654 bhp and 1,175 kg, which is 557 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 390 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Koenigsegg CC8S?
Closest here on pace: Stealth B6 (3.26 s), Brooke Double R 320 (3.22 s), Pagani Zonda F Clubsport (3.25 s). Each one can be raced against the Koenigsegg CC8S in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Koenigsegg CC8S is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 5 of its 5 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
