The CC8S's chassis and body are manufactured of carbon fiber, reinforced with kevlar and aluminium honeycomb. These facts combined with the powerfull engine give it a power to weigh ratio of 2.4 kg / kW (4 lb / hp), a very impressive figure equivalent to the McLaren F1 and greater than the 2.6 kg / kW (4.3 lb / hp) of the Bugatti Veyron.

The Koenigsegg-developed double wishbone suspension system, modeled from Formula One racing, has been judged by expert test-drivers to provide much better handling than any other competing supercar. Similar to a racing car, it can be fully modified to optimize the vehicle for the race track.

A hardtop roof-panel, which can be removed and stored under the front hood, covers the luxurious interior. The leather and aluminum fitted cabin incorporates all the top equipment for comfort and security. (wiki)
