This particular car shown here is the fantastic 2020 Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut Pre-Production ‘Magma’ (chassis YT9PR1E1XLA007257), the car that set the 0-400-0km/h world record in just 27.83 seconds. This Jesko was first unveiled in April 2022 with factory runway photos, later making public debuts at Goodwood and Monterey that same year. It’s finished in Anthracite exposed carbon fiber with Tang Orange striping, carbon mirrors, and AirCore wheels featuring orange center locks and white tire lettering. Inside, the cabin is trimmed in Anthracite Alcantara with Lava Orange ‘Drift’ stitching. The Koenigsegg Jesko is a limited production mid-engine sports car currently being produced by Swedish automobile manufacturer Koenigsegg in just approximately 125 total units for the world between two separate variations of the Jesko model. The Jesko was first Introduced at the 2019 Geneva Motor Show, succeeding the company’s Agera model. Alongside the track-focused ‘Attack’ Jesko, this variant shown is known as the ‘Absolut’. This sleeker, more streamlined variant is a top speed version of the Koenigsegg Jesko which comes without the large wing, and wheel cover caps reducing the amount of air that travels between the wheel spokes. The Jesko model was designed by Koenigsegg founder, automotive engineer and entrepreneur, Christian Von Koenigsegg alongside industrial designer, Joachim Nordwall. Notably, both variations of the Jesko utilize a unique gearbox system which is an in-house developed 9-speed multi-clutch transmission which is called the ‘Light Speed Transmission (LST)’. The transmission is controlled by an onboard computer which allows the system to gather road speed and engine data in order to correctly decipher which gear it should be in.
