The Koenigsegg CCGT is a racing car built by Swedish car manufacturer Koenigsegg. Making its debut appearance at the 2007 Geneva Motor Show, the CCGT is designed to compete in the grand tourer categories of sportscar racing.

Mechanically the CCGT is very similar to the roadcar on which it is based, the Koenigsegg CCX. However, the most noticeable difference between the CCGT and the CCX is the engine - in order to meet the regulations for the GT1 class as set by both the ACO and the FIA, the two centrifugal superchargers were removed from the DOHC V8 engine and its capacity was increased from 4.7 litres to 5.0 litres. The power output is an air restricted 600 horsepower (591 bhp).

Through the extensive use of carbon fibre in the car's chassis and bodywork, the CCGT's weight is just 1,000 kg, allowing Koenigsegg's racing teams to use up to 100 kg of ballast freely to make the car meet the 1,100 kg minimum weight requirement for cars in its category.

Koenigsegg have yet to announce when they intend to start running the CCGT in competitive racing.
