Built for Speed: The Swedish Hypercar Story of Innovation, Records, and Legacy

Built for Speed: The Swedish Hypercar Story of Innovation, Records, and Legacy tells the fact-based story of one of the most remarkable performance-car journeys of the modern era.

From a bold Swedish vision in 1994 to record-breaking hypercars built at a former air force base in Ängelholm, this book follows the rise of a small manufacturer that challenged some of the most established names in automotive history. It traces the development of the first CC prototype, the breakthrough production cars, the speed records, the carbon-fiber structures, the radical drivetrains, the rare limited editions, and the engineering culture that turned a founder-led company into a global hypercar reference point.

Written in a polished, accessible narrative style, this book explores the cars, people, factory, records, customers, rivals, and innovations that shaped the story. It is a clear, fact-based account of speed, persistence, invention, and the refusal to accept conventional limits.
