NextImg:Major car brand admits it has 'nothing to sell' as it rules out producing electric vehicle

One of the most exclusive brands in the world has admitted that it has nothing left to sell as it rules out creating an electric vehicle.

Swedish hypercar manufacturer Koenigsegg has a complete sellout of its entire model range, with no available inventory across its four current offerings.

The Jesko, capped at 125 units split between the high-downforce Attack and streamlined Absolut variants, has found homes with all prospective buyers.

The retro-inspired CC850, initially planned for 50 examples but expanded to 70 following exceptional demand, is similarly exhausted.

Even the comparatively high-volume Gemera, with its 300-unit production run and 2,300bhp output, has been fully allocated.

The latest addition, the track-oriented Sadair's Spear limited to just 30 examples, was completely sold before its public debut this week.

Company founder and chief executive Christian von Koenigsegg acknowledged the unusual predicament his firm faces.

He told TopGear.com: "All our models are presently sold out, we have nothing to sell, which is kind of good, but also annoying because it's fun to interact and supply enthusiasts with their dreams come true.

"We would love to have more, but we will introduce something new in one, one and a half years, then we'll open up the order books again."

He revealed that multiple projects are currently under development, each designed to be distinctive and purposeful.

Details about the forthcoming models remain closely guarded, though a successor to the 1,600bhp Jesko is amongst the confirmed projects.

Additional derivatives based on the Gemera's hybrid architecture are also anticipated, promising enhanced performance capabilities.

However, von Koenigsegg has definitively ruled out developing a fully electric hypercar.

"The appetite in the market for this level of fully electric car is extremely low," he explained.

The 53-year-old said he enjoyed the experience of driving an electric car, adding that it was easy to live with.

Despite this, the CEO believes internal combustion engines offer something to the driver that cannot be replaced or replicated.

He said: "After a while, you want to feel something, you want to talk to the beast, you want to have a dialogue.

"You want the throbbing, the pumping, the heat, the sounds, the shifts, all of these aspects that just make a car come alive."

There are just two Koenigsegg models available in the UK through the Auto Trader platform, including a Koenigsegg Agera and a Koenigsegg CCX.

The Agera is a limited-edition model from a production run of just 25 vehicles and has been listed with a £3.5million price tag. The 2006 CCX could fetch a similarly high sum, with the listing online for £2.1million.
