One of the most disputed topics in the industry: Is it possible to make high performance carbon fiber wheels? Christian von Koenigsegg explains that it’s not only possible, but his company has been doing it for a few years now. Take a look at how:

10:22 Delamination! haha i think its fine
It took Ferrari 4 years before they attempted the same thing on the soon to be released 488 Pista. That’s how far CVK is ahead of the competition.
The problem with your basic concept is you are limited by the engine. Electric motors are NOT the answer due to weight. My new engine is. Want to have a discussion on how to make the correct engine for the fastest engine system, that can get 250 mpg on the highway? Serious. With your charm and salemanship and my engine we could get 80-95% of the fuel out of the world and have the best and faster cars and airplane. You do cars and I do seaplanes that go 400 mph. I race you with my seaplane pulling 1.5 G’s….
This guy beats elon musk in every way. He shouldve been the ceo of spacex with his knowledge spacex coulve reach mars.
Just say ‘using’ as ‘utilising’ makes a fellow sound a bit dim, like they’re overcompensating for a lack of ze little greycells. I know Baron Von Koenigsegg isn’t that much of a cunt in the fact that if nothing else, he knows how to hire the right people. Even so, stick use/used/using in the future, ye silver spoon tosswomble.
Imagine how awesome it would be if he put that kind of effort into rollerblades. I’d probably get back into it.
This one , a hypercar without any gears and a camless high performance engine … We should invest in his company .
And car stands from Biltema 😀
The engineers on this are true masterminds. A concept turned reality. Amazing work!!
@/DRIVE, the music you use at the conclusion of each of the INSIDE KOENIGSEGG sections and also from 7:30 to 8:15 of this video. What is it? Can anyone assist in identifying it?
Don’t you mean 280kph wheels?
Koenigsegg One:1 is life
brilliant. but he doesn’t half go on about it
284mph capable
It looks like you are taping carbon fiber and commentating how amazing it is to have carbon fiber in the wheels.
When this guy said “Camber” I knew he is legit
Amazing !
Wow this guy seems more like a presenter than a supercar producer!
so what tires do they use?
If Christian entered Formula 1, what kind of technical innovations would he produce to an f1 car?
if you don’t mind me asking, what is the tools you use for the wheels called?
Beautiful and amazing!!
there is a few things wrong here. first the guy laying up could save so much time by using a hair dryer to lay up.. and second you would never bag on a plastic table that is just asking for holes in your bag and you would never bag on a table that you use to take your parts out of your molds
Pagani and koeniggseg are the best quality you will ever find
fuck lambos fuck any other super cars i feel this is the only hyper car that has the highest amount of tech that no other super car has or will hav for a while!!!
He knows what he is talking about
Full of passion & innovation…
Now ford has carbon fiber wheels!
No other supercar companies CEO is able to explain as detailed what’s going on in their factory line
prepreg carbon gurus!
You don’t use the brakes to stop…
It’s amazing what people can achieve.

I more love Koenigsegg One:1 than Agera RS
Great technology I would love a set for my Mercedes amg
As the spokes are hollow and open to the outside, I wonder if moisture would build up somehow inside? (highly doubt they overlooked that though…)
For anyone itching to purchase a set of CF wheels for the road / track car… check out ‘Carbon Revolution’ – http://www.carbonrev.com/technology – who have been designing / manufacturing the world’s only one-piece CF wheels since 2008 (so Koenigsegg are not the only CF wheel produces)!

The porn of automobile industry
The best thing I ever did for my fireblade was to put BST carbon fibre wheels on it. The performance improvements are amazing.
I’m sure the gains would be the same for a car.
This genuis has literally zero hair. No hair, No brows and No eyelashes!!
This guy is a genius
egg boy
So I guess 280mph+ with these wheels was confirmed…
there’s no reason on earth for me to hate this company, he literally knows what is added into his cars!
I was on a tour there once and I got the opportunity to hold one of their rims. I was like “br u h, that’s light”
I’d love to work for that company!!
