Veyron's acceleration becomes ever more impressive at high speeds, which is not characteristic for AWD cars. But it is a fact.

Look at acceleration numbers:

Bugatti Veyron - 2.5/7.4/18.2 (Auto-Moto-und-Sport independent test)
K-segg CCXR edition - -100 km/h 2.9 seconds 0-200 km/h 8.75 sec (information from K-segg official web site, which lets me suggest that the real world test will bring a little bit worser results)


The gap is quite impressive and I am sure it will increase with speed growing. That is why K-segg do not share 0-300 km/h speed on their web.

I do not see any logical grounds for Bugatti&VW posts, we all know that Bugatti is absolutely bespoke and the only one thing VW shared with Bugatti is incredible amount of money.

So my verdict - K-segg is great car, but only second after Veyron.
Dmitri, I know the Bugatti would put the K'segg to shame. I was just joking around about the Bugatti/VW comparison. I'd still rather have the K'segg in my garage though.

I'm pretty sure the Veyron would beat the K-egg from 0-100. Roll-on acceleration from 100-200 might be a different story.
That was exactely what I thought.
Although I don't doubt any of the numbers that D55L stated it's kinda confusing. Considering the weight/power ratio and that the 'Segg has rw-drive there should be no way in hell the Veyron could beat it in a race from 100-300km/h. Either something about the numbers in the 'Segg isn't right or they just haven't made accurate tests yet.

I understand your point. Many would take K-segg over Veyron, especially if K-segg would not be so drastically overpriced. Price it for 1M euros and it will find much more buyers than now.

While being a Bugatti fan I must admit that while Veyron is an amazing automotive achievment, such cars as Zonda or this K-segg is more delicious I must say.

This K-segg is so incredible, so stunning that, except the Veyron, I would take it over all supercars, even Zonda Cinque.

Here's a video of Jay Leno looking it over and driving it. I had no idea the Koenigseggs were this awesome:

They need a Koenigsegg Trevita power sliding around a veyron, that is also power sliding.

I know for sure there is a video that was filmed in Russia, a race between Koenigsegg and Bugatti.

I will find the link and post it...
