by Exclusive Hypercar Receives Extensive Update
Tuning atelier Mansory has unveiled its version of the ultra-rare Koenigsegg Jesko hypercar. The car, with a price tag of approximately $3 million and production limited to 125 units, has received 17 new carbon fiber parts and a complete image overhaul.
The main changes are:
Individual Commission and Exterior
The car was created for a customer from the Middle East, which explains the choice of color reminiscent of desert sands. The new paint radically changed the appearance of the Swedish hypercar, but the true transformation was provided by the mass of carbon parts.
The front end, based on the Jesko Attack configuration, now features a new splitter, trim for the air intakes, and aerodynamic ‘canards’. The hood is adorned with a thick carbon fiber insert with new ventilation louvres. The impact of these changes on aerodynamic performance remains unknown.
Other exterior updates include carbon covers behind the front wheel arches, strips along the doors, and new side sills. The brake calipers are repainted to match the body color.
Radical Rear-End Changes
The rear end of the standard Jesko is one of the most impressive in the world of hypercars, but Mansory somehow made it even more absurd.
The bi-plane rear wing is modified with new end plates, and the trunk lid is adorned with a multi-element, full-width spoiler. A new diffuser and a central brake light inspired by Formula 1 cars have also appeared.
Luxury in the Cabin
The interior has not been overlooked either. The carbon fiber bucket seats are upholstered in turquoise leather. The same material is used for parts of the doors, steering wheel, center console, and headliner, which also features contrasting black stitching.
Similar Mansory projects always spark lively discussions among car enthusiasts. On one hand, they demonstrate technical craftsmanship and customization possibilities even for the most exclusive cars. On the other hand, the question arises about the advisability of interfering with the engineering concept, especially when it comes to a car as aerodynamically complex as the Koenigsegg Jesko, every detail of which was calculated to achieve maximum performance. However, for an owner wishing to emphasize their individuality, such tuning becomes a logical step, transforming a masterpiece of series production into a unique art object.
