The Koenigsegg Jesko dresses in gold to welcome 2024

In 2019 we had the chance to meet the Koenigsegg Jesko, which became the successor to the Agera. It is a highly sought-after model, because only 125 units of this car will be built. To make each of these vehicles different, the brand offers a wide range of customisable elements. One of the customers took the opportunity to choose some of these elements and turned their vehicle into a car dressed in black with 24-karat gold accents.

The look of this Koenigsegg Jesko is based on the Agera RS, which was built for an American millionaire and named “Phoenix“. Each of the exterior elements is made of carbon fibre with a decorative gold touch. The exterior elements have a transparent coating in which small gold particles can be seen, giving it a striking appearance.

The gold is most visible on elements such as the front canards, the exterior mirror supports, the central element of the front fascia, the aerodynamic points on the side skirts and some of the points on the rear wing. The Koenigsegg badge and the roof lines also feature this golden look.

This variant is based on the Attack version, which is prepared to move freely on the track. This means it features a more efficient aerodynamic package. Its features include a more extreme front diffuser, the rear wing and other elements that allow it to deliver excellent performance on the track.

Another of the variants launched for this model is the Absolut, the most imposing of all those being prepared. Although it has a very aerodynamic design, it has no rear wing. Despite this, it can reach a top speed of 480 km/h.

All models are equipped with the 5.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine, which is capable of producing 1,280 CV when running on regular petrol. If E85 fuel is chosen, the power soars to 1,600 CV, so this is a car to take very seriously. As I mentioned above, only 125 lucky buyers will be able to get one, provided they can afford the price of each of them.
