Koenigsegg, the makers of outlandish hypercars such as the CCX, One:1 and the Agera, have showcased their latest offering - the Jesko - at the 2019 Geneva Motor Show. The Jesko replaces the Agera RS as the Swedish carmaker’s flagship hypercar and is by far the most powerful one to come out of its factory. Powered by a revised version of the company’s 5.0-litre twin-turbo V8, the Jesko produces 1298PS of power on regular petrol and over 1600PS on E85 biofuel. Peak torque is rated at 1500Nm at 5100rpm, of which 1000Nm is available from 2700rpm to 6170rpm! The engine is mated to a new 9-speed Koenigsegg Light Speed Transmission.
Other highlights include a 180-degree flat-plane crankshaft, revised intake and larger turbos. It even gets an air-injection system (patent pending) that shoots 20 bar of air into the turbos to prevent lag. The Jesko also features advanced aerodynamics, which offers over 1000kg of downforce, and active rear-wheel steering. Koenigsegg adds that the re-designed carbon-fibre chassis has resulted in more legroom, headroom and greater visibility.
