Cegga (Switzerland) - AllCarIndex

Automobiles Cegga was a Swiss automobile manufacturer founded in 1960 by brothers Chude and Georges Gachnang. The company initially gained attention with its first car, a modified AC-Bristol, which participated in the 1960 Le Mans 24-hour race. Despite facing significant challenges, including a two-hour delay due to running out of road, the vehicle finished in 22nd place.

Throughout its brief existence, Cegga produced a range of sports, sports-racing, and Formula I cars. These vehicles utilized engines and components sourced from established manufacturers such as Ferrari, Maserati, and Cooper. The Cegga cars found success in various motorsport events, particularly in hill climbs and smaller racing competitions.

The company's activities came to an abrupt end in 1970 following a serious accident involving Georges Gachnang during the Faucille hill climb. This incident marked the conclusion of Cegga's operations in the automotive industry.
