The award-winning aerodynamic shape of the CCX is one of strength and flowing motion.

It is formed to reach ultimate speeds and efficiencies.

Every aspect of this machine serves a fundamental purpose, and nothing else.

There are no gadgets or unnecessary features on the car, only what is
absolutely vital in the name of efficiency and purity.



The asking price for this obscure Swedish-manufactured hypercar starts at the euro equivalent of £420,000,
to which you have the option of adding £3,700 for traction control, £8,800 for a set of carbon-fibre wheels, £12,000 for ceramic brakes, not to mention £36,000 for a diamond-encrusted key.

Looks great but imagine the state of the art shed you could have on the lottie for that kind of money. You could still have the diamond encrusted key.
