Customer test drives the Koenigsegg Jesko prototype
Mike Yin has become the first person outside of the Koenigsegg factory to test drive the Jesko.
Mike was accompanied by Christian Von Koenigsegg, as he opened the taps on the 5.0-liter, twin-turbo V8. As you’d expect, it’s quite loud inside the cabin. You can clearly hear the turbos doing their job, and of course, the pops and crackles on the overrun. The gearshifts are super quick, thanks to the aptly named Light Speed Transmission (LST).
The first pre-production Koenigsegg Jesko was revealed back in July this year. Since then, the car has been testing all over the world. More recently, it was in Dubai for hot-weather testing.
Meanwhile, production of the Jesko is already underway at the Angelholm factory. The first customer cars are expected to be delivered by November or December.
