by The Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut hypercar has reminded everyone of itself again by accelerating to 359.83 km/h over a half-mile distance (approximately 800 m). Thus, the Swedish engineering masterpiece has surpassed the previous leader, the Hennessey Venom F5, whose result was 357.11 km/h. Recall that in 2022, this car was accelerated to 531 km/h!
Although the new achievement is impressive, it has not yet been officially recognized. The reason is the absence of independent observers and the run being made in only one direction. At the same time, the brand’s founder, Christian von Koenigsegg, is confident in the potential of the Jesko Absolut, as this hypercar is not surprising the world for the first time. Back in 2023, it demonstrated phenomenal dynamics – acceleration to 400 km/h followed by a complete stop took only 27.83 seconds.
The Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut is the most aerodynamically perfect car in the company’s history. Thanks to minimal air resistance (only 0.278 Cd) and a 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 with a power of over 1600 hp, this car leaves behind all existing production cars today!
The price of one such specimen starts from 3 million US dollars, but in reality, the price on the secondary market may be even higher due to the limited production run. A total of 125 Jesko cars are planned to be produced, some of which will be made in the track-oriented Attack version, and some in the speed-oriented Absolut version.
