Koenigsegg has released an official statement regarding the end of its partnership with NLV Solar-AG related to the creation of the Quant Concept. During the 2009 Geneva Auto Show, a dispute appeared to have erupted and more questions cropped up seeking to clarify who should be credited for the Quant. The press release reads: "The NLV Quant program was initiated and is wholly owned by NLV-Solar AG in Switzerland. The Quant is not a Koenigsegg Automotive car and was never intended to be." Koenigsegg enumerates that its contributions include the body and interior design, chassis conceptualization, and a feasibility study for low volume production. While NLV-Solar AG's responsibilities include the photovoltaic and electrical accumulator storage system, as well as owning and driving the whole project. Having completed its agreed contributions to the program, Koenigsegg added that if NLV sees a need then it may consider rejoining the venture. Koenigsegg ended the statement wishing NLV success.
