Koenigsegg CCR: which version to buy
If you are choosing a Koenigsegg CCR, the catalogue lists one generation (2004–2006) and one version: 4.7 MT. There is no second engine, no automatic, no restyle, and no all-wheel-drive variant to trade against. The buying question is not “which CCR,” but whether 4.7 MT is the car you want, judged only by the numbers this generation actually published.

Specs that decide the only CCR: 4.7 MT
4.7 MT is a Coupe with a 4700 cm³ Gasoline engine: 8 cylinders, V-shaped layout, 4 valves per cylinder, Turbo, Central placement, Distributed injection (multi-point). Output is 806 hp (593 kW) at 6900 rpm and 920 Nm at 5700 rpm. Compression ratio is 8.6. Fuel grade is 98. Drive is RWD through a 6-speed Manual. Production window for this version is 2004-01-01 to 2006-12-31 — the same span as generation 1.
That is the entire shop window. If a listing uses another name, it is not this catalogue row.
Engine math: what 806 hp on 4.7 litres actually buys
Power per litre for 4.7 MT is 806 ÷ 4.7 ≈ 171.5 hp per litre. Kilowatts per litre: 593 ÷ 4.7 ≈ 126.2 kW/l.
Torque per litre: 920 ÷ 4.7 ≈ 195.7 Nm/l.
Those ratios are why a single 4.7-litre Turbo unit is the whole CCR story: the catalogue does not offer a naturally aspirated alternative or a larger second engine to compare. The extra output versus a “just 4.7 litres” reading is the Turbo figure already in the row — 806 hp and 920 Nm — not a second tune.
Peak power sits at 6900 rpm; peak torque at 5700 rpm. The gap is 1200 rpm. You are not choosing between a low-rpm torque version and a high-rpm power version; 4.7 MT is both peaks on one map. Torque arrives 1200 rpm before peak horsepower, so the 6-speed Manual is the only tool in the data for keeping the engine in that band.
Specific output per cylinder: 806 ÷ 8 = 100.75 hp per cylinder, 920 ÷ 8 = 115 Nm per cylinder. Four valves per cylinder is the valve count given; there is no 2-valve sibling.
Compression 8.6 is the published figure for this Turbo Gasoline setup. There is no high-compression / low-compression pair in the generation.
Weight versus power: the 1180 kg argument
Kerb weight for 4.7 MT is 1180 kg. Gross weight is not measured.
Mass per horsepower: 1180 ÷ 806 ≈ 1.46 kg/hp. Horsepower per tonne (using kerb mass): 806 ÷ (1180 / 1000) ≈ 683 hp per tonne. Mass per newton-metre: 1180 ÷ 920 ≈ 1.28 kg/Nm.
Ground clearance is 100 mm. Wheel sizes are not measured. Front and rear suspension are both Independent, spring. Front brakes: Ventilated disc. Rear brakes: Disc ventilated. There is no heavier “comfort” CCR and no stripped second version in the data, so you cannot buy a different brake or spring package by picking another name.
Fuel tank is 80 litres. Combined, city, and highway consumption are not measured. CO2 is not measured. Eco class is not measured. You cannot rank CCR versions on mpg because no consumption figure exists for 4.7 MT.
Performance: 3.2 s and 395 km/h with nothing else to pick
0–100 km/h for 4.7 MT is 3.2 s. Top speed is 395 km/h.
There is no slower CCR and no faster CCR in this generation. Arithmetic that is allowed: 395 km/h is the catalogue ceiling; 3.2 s is the catalogue sprint. You do not pay extra inside this model line for a quicker 0–100 or a higher top speed — those numbers are already the only ones.
If a seller implies a different 0–100 or a different top speed under the same 4.7 MT name, that claim is outside this data.
Generations: what generation 1 changed — and what it did not
Generation 1 runs 2004-01-01 to 2006-12-31, body Coupe, 1 version. There is no generation 2 in the data, so there is no later CCR with more power, more gears, or a different drive layout to “wait for.”
Inside generation 1 there is also no restyling row. Years 2004, 2005, and 2006 share the same 4.7 MT specification: 806 hp, 920 Nm, 4700 cm³, 6-speed Manual, RWD, 1180 kg, 80-litre tank, 100 mm clearance, 3.2 s to 100 km/h, 395 km/h.
What did not change between the start and stop dates, because there is only one modification:
- cylinders: still 8, V-shaped
- boost: still Turbo
- engine position: still Central
- injection: still Distributed injection (multi-point)
- gearbox: still Manual, 6
- drive: still RWD
Buying an early or late car in this window is not a spec upgrade in this catalogue. The version name stays 4.7 MT for the whole run.
Gearbox and drive: the only transmission on the list
4.7 MT is Manual, 6 gears, RWD. There is no Automatic CCR, no 7-speed, and no AWD row. “MT” in the version name is the gearbox you get.
You cannot spend more inside this model to buy a different number of gears or a different driven axle. The comparison is binary: accept 6-speed Manual and RWD, or this model is not the one.
Dimensions and weight: what is measured, what is not
| Item | 4.7 MT |
|---|---|
| Kerb weight | 1180 kg |
| Gross weight | not measured |
| Ground clearance | 100 mm |
| Tank | 80 L |
| Wheels | not measured |
| City consumption | not measured |
| Highway consumption | not measured |
| Combined consumption | not measured |
| CO2 | not measured |
| Eco class | not measured |
Clearance 100 mm is the ride-height number you live with. Without a measured wheel size, you cannot choose a “larger wheel” CCR from this table.
An 80-litre tank with consumption not measured means range is not a figure this catalogue can compute. Do not treat a missing mpg as “the CCR has no fuel use”; it is unmeasured.
Engines and specs (the one row)
| Version | hp | Nm | cm³ | Fuel | Cylinders / layout | Boost | Gearbox | Drive |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4.7 MT | 806 | 920 | 4700 | Gasoline (98) | 8, V-shaped | Turbo | Manual, 6 | RWD |
Power rpm 6900, torque rpm 5700, 4 valves per cylinder, compression 8.6, Central engine, Distributed injection (multi-point). Body: Coupe.
Which version to choose
Choose 4.7 MT if the numbers you want are exactly these: 806 hp, 920 Nm, 4700 cm³ Turbo Gasoline, 8 cylinders V-shaped, 6-speed Manual, RWD, 1180 kg kerb, 3.2 s to 100 km/h, 395 km/h, 80 L tank, 100 mm clearance, years 2004–2006, Coupe.
Do not look for a second CCR version in this dataset to get:
- more than 806 hp (none listed)
- an Automatic (none listed)
- a drive other than RWD (none listed)
- a body other than Coupe (none listed)
- a later generation (pokoleniy = 1)
- a measured consumption, CO2, eco class, gross weight, or wheel size (all not measured)
There is no “extra money buys X” comparison between two CCR catalogue versions, because the modification count is 1. The arithmetic that remains is internal to 4.7 MT: about 171.5 hp/l, about 1.46 kg/hp, about 683 hp/tonne, 100.75 hp per cylinder, 1200 rpm between torque peak and power peak.
If those ratios and that single drivetrain are what you want, 4.7 MT is the CCR to buy. If you need a second gearbox, a second power figure, or a generation after 2006, this model line as listed does not provide it.
