No. The company founder did work for Koenigsegg earlier in his career.

This looks to be Caresto project named K2. A private build for a customer.

Arunas got it! It is indeed the Caresto K2, powered by a supercharged, 550 HP V8 (their website doesn't specify the engine's origin but I assume it must be Volvo). The car has been built and delivered to the customer but there seem to be no pictures out there of the finished article. The photo below shows the most advanced building stage I have been able to find.
