Koenigsegg announces a new platform and a couple of supercars

The Swedish hypercar maker is working on two new vehicles and an improved mid-engine platform, CarBuzz reports quoting CEO Christian von Koenigsegg. Both are penciled in for premiere in 2026.

One of the vehicles is envisioned as a homage to an unspecified classic car. The media speculate that it could be designed much in the same way as the CC850 coupe that went into production in early 2025 packing 1,385 PS (1,366 hp / 1,019 kW). It is widely considered a reference to the Koenigsegg CC8S, one of the marque’s earliest releases.

The newcomer may be based on the time-proven Jesko platform, CarBuzz believes. Even if true, it will likely become the company’s last car running on Jesko underpinnings, because the other one is expected to arrive in late 2026 based on a completely new chassis. Koenigsegg says it will be mid-engined, but that’s all information we have to date.

If we had to guess, we’d say the company could reuse the hybrid powertrain of the Gemera, which includes an internal combustion engine and a Dark Matter-series electric motor developed in-house. The Gemera squeezes up to 2,300 PS (2,269 hp / 1,692 kW) out of this setup.

Intriguingly enough, von Koenigsegg let it slip in the interview that the latter of the two supercars may wind up with “unexpected tech innovations” not found in any other vehicle on the market. He said his team was looking into a whole number of promising design ideas, checking various hypotheses for viability.

Koenigsegg’s latest release was a coupe called Sadair’s Spear – you can see it in the gallery and the video above. It commands a V8 engine and gets up to 1,625 PS (1,603 hp / 1,195 kW) out of it. All 30 examples have been sold out. Right now, the automaker has zero production slots left in the queue, so when the new cars arrive depends on how fast the current batch can be delivered.
