About the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut
The Jesko Absolut is the low-drag, high-speed counterpart to the track-focused Jesko Attack. It features an elongated rear tail, covered rear wheels, and the removal of the massive rear wing to achieve a drag coefficient of just 0.278 Cd. Powered by a 5.0-litre twin-turbo V8, it produces 1,600 hp on E85 fuel, delivered through a revolutionary 9-speed Light Speed Transmission (LST) that allows for near-instantaneous gear skips. Christian von Koenigsegg has stated this will be the fastest series-production road car the company ever builds.
