Koenigsegg CCX is 3D printed, and while a number of 3D printed tuning components and upgrade chassis kits are available, the Area71 Koenigsegg CCX is said by the makers to be the first completely 3D printed chassis and body kit available on the market. The first batch of 1:32-scale Koenigsegg CCXs are on the market now, and the man behind them, Marco Rizzi, leads a team of Italian designers and technicians to create this, what they say is the first in a line of ground-breaking, limited edition scale model kits. Now model car maker Area71 has built their own version Koenigsegg’s dream car – the CCX. From that first rollout, the international contacts were established and the car had made the next steps towards commercial production. Koenigsegg took the CC prototype to the Cannes Film Festival a year later, and the reaction to the car was immediate and positive. The prototype was completed in 1996 – just two years after the project began – and the Koenigsegg CC featured a unique carbon fiber body with a detachable roof. At the young age of 22, Christian Koenigsegg launched a car company and set about creating his version of the ultimate car.īack then, to create the first working prototype, the carmaker sketched the technical layout of the car himself and, working alongside his small team, hand-modeled all components for the vehicle.
