Overview

The 2002 Koenigsegg CCX CCXR Edition and 2022 Koenigsegg Gemera Standard share a manufacturer in Koenigsegg, but that's where the similarities get interesting. These two models reveal the versatility and ambition of the Koenigsegg brand. The 2022 Koenigsegg Gemera Standard holds a clear advantage in raw power with 1700 hp compared to 1018 hp, a 682-horsepower difference that shapes the driving experience. Under the hood, the contrast is notable: the Koenigsegg CCX uses a V8 Twin Supercharged displacing 4,700 cc, while the Koenigsegg Gemera relies on a Inline-3 Twin-Turbocharged + 3 Electric Motors with 1,988 cc. In the sprint to 60 mph, the 2022 Koenigsegg Gemera Standard edges ahead at 1.9 seconds versus 2.9 seconds. The Koenigsegg CCX carries a weight advantage, tipping the scales 1257 lbs lighter. Rarity plays a significant role here — with only 49 units built, the 2002 Koenigsegg CCX CCXR Edition is considerably scarcer than the Koenigsegg Gemera's 300 examples. Both trade at comparable values on the collector market, making the choice between them largely one of personal preference.
