Koenigsegg Jesko Attack 

Koenigsegg Jesko Attack  Overview (2024–2025 Model)

The Most Extreme Track-Focused Hypercar on Earth

The Koenigsegg Jesko Attack is not just a car — it’s a mechanical masterpiece forged for the track, designed to obliterate lap records and redefine the limits of performance. Born in Ängelholm, Sweden, by the visionary engineers at Koenigsegg, the Jesko Attack is the most aggressive, aerodynamically advanced, and driver-focused variant of the already insane Jesko lineup.

Unlike the road-going Jesko or even the track-capable Jesko Absolut, the Attack is engineered for maximum downforce, precision, and circuit dominance — with an active aero system so advanced it blurs the line between hypercar and prototype race car.

🔧 Powertrain: Twin-Turbo V8 — Built for 300+ mph & 1,600 HP

• Engine: 5.0L Twin-Turbocharged V8 (Jesko 5.0)

o    Displacement: 4,961 cc

o    Configuration: Flat-plane crank, dry-sump lubrication

o    Materials: Aluminum block and heads, forged internals

o    Redline: 8,500 rpm

• Power Output (Flex Fuel):

o    1,600 PS (1,578 hp / 1,177 kW) on E85 biofuel

o    1,280 PS (1,262 hp) on 98 RON gasoline

• Torque: 1,500 Nm (1,106 lb-ft) @ 5,100–6,100 rpm
• Fuel System: Direct + port injection (for E85 compatibility)
• Cooling: Triple radiators, side intakes, roof-mounted air scoop
• Transmission: 9-speed Light Speed Transmission (LST)

o    Koenigsegg’s proprietary multi-clutch system (no traditional synchros)

o    Shifts in under 200 microseconds — faster than any dual-clutch

o    Can skip multiple gears (e.g., 7th to 2nd) without delay

• Drive Layout: Rear-wheel drive (RWD)
• 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph): 2.5 seconds
• 0–200 km/h (0–124 mph): 5.4 seconds
• 0–300 km/h (0–186 mph): 9.9 seconds
• Top Speed:

o    Electronically limited to ~330 km/h (205 mph) due to extreme downforce

o    Theoretically capable of over 400 km/h in low-drag mode (not used on Attack)

💥 The Jesko Attack sacrifices ultimate top speed for maximum grip and cornering force — this is a track weapon, not a top-speed chaser.

✅ Why the Jesko Attack Matters

The Koenigsegg Jesko Attack isn’t chasing Bugatti’s top speed — it’s chasing lap times. With F1-level aerodynamics, 1,600 HP on biofuel, and a carbon-fiber pushrod chassis, it’s the closest thing to a Le Mans prototype with license plate potential.

It’s not just the most powerful Koenigsegg — it’s the most extreme track hypercar ever built.
