248 MPH Without A Gearbox: Direct Drive

If we were to pick out one company that most certainly appears to be ahead of its time, that company would have to be Koenigsegg. The Swedish hypercar maker is constantly cranking out cars that impress over and over again to try and stay ahead of the competition.

The video below takes the liberty of laying out all of the steps in the process to explain this concept that seems difficult to understand on the surface, but when you check out how all of the pieces fall into place, it’ll all start to make more sense!
