Carbon Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut

Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut x Brixton Forged CM6-RS: A Hypercar Masterpiece Unveiled at The I.C.E. St. Moritz

In the world of hypercars, the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut stands as a monumental achievement, pushing the boundaries of automotive engineering and design. Recently, this engineering marvel was showcased at The International Concours of Elegance (The I.C.E.) in St. Moritz, Switzerland—a unique event where automotive excellence meets the pristine backdrop of a frozen lake.

A Collaborative Masterpiece

This particular Jesko Absolut is the result of a collaboration between Carage Luzern, 812 Concept, and Brixton Forged. The vehicle is fitted with bespoke Brixton Forged CM6-RS monoblock wheels, meticulously designed to complement the Jesko’s aerodynamic profile. These wheels not only enhance the car’s aesthetics but also contribute to its performance by reducing unsprung weight and improving handling dynamics.

Revolutionary Engineering

At the heart of the Jesko Absolut lies a 5.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, capable of producing an astounding 1,280 horsepower on standard gasoline and up to 1,600 horsepower when fueled with E85 ethanol. This powerplant features the world’s lightest V8 crankshaft, weighing just 12.5 kilograms, allowing for a redline of 8,500 rpm. The engine’s design includes twin ceramic ball-bearing turbochargers equipped with Koenigsegg’s response system, minimizing turbo lag and ensuring immediate power delivery.

Record-Breaking Performance

The Jesko Absolut is engineered for extreme speed, with Koenigsegg aiming for it to be the fastest production car in existence. While official top speed figures are yet to be confirmed, simulations suggest that the Jesko Absolut is capable of surpassing speeds of 300 mph (approximately 483 km/h). This is achieved through a combination of its powerful engine, a drag coefficient of just 0.278 Cd, and a sleek, elongated body designed for high-speed stability.

The I.C.E. St. Moritz: A Unique Showcase

The I.C.E. St. Moritz is an annual automotive event that transforms the frozen Lake St. Moritz into a stage for some of the world’s most exclusive cars. Enthusiasts and collectors gather to witness these machines in an environment that combines luxury with the raw beauty of the Swiss Alps. The Jesko Absolut’s presence at this event underscores its status as a pinnacle of automotive art and engineering.
