# Jesko Absolut

Drag stripped from Jesko

The Absolut exchanges the Jesko Attack's wing and circuit aero for a long tail, covered rear wheels and a 0.278 drag coefficient. Its 25.21-second 0 to 400 to 0 km/h factory run is measured; a maximum-speed claim is not.

2020 onward · within 125-car Jesko run · Ängelholm

## The price and the proof

Indicative road-car band $3.5M–$5.5M. Modeled values are not observed sales. Nothing here is investment advice.

Confidence: estimate. Editorial estimate anchored to Jesko's roughly $3 million launch price, the existing catalogue value and Absolut's record provenance. No documented public auction sale of a Jesko Absolut was found.

Specification, delivery market, production position and record-car association can outweigh nominal Attack-versus-Absolut pricing.

Valuation method and source rules: [HICONIUM standards](https://hiconium.dev/standards). Observed auction results across the wider market: [Market terminal](https://hiconium.dev/market).

## A straight-line branch of the Jesko programme

Koenigsegg unveiled the Jesko Absolut in March 2020 as the low-drag alternative to the track-focused Jesko. Buyers could specify either form within the same 125-car production run.

The first pre-production Absolut appeared in April 2022 in Graphite Grey with Tang Orange stripes. Its body deleted the Attack wing, extended the tail and added fins derived from high-speed aircraft stability work.

A standard-condition factory car set four acceleration-and-braking marks in June 2024. Revised drivetrain and traction-control software lowered the 0 to 400 to 0 km/h time from 27.83 to 25.21 seconds in August 2025.

| Highlight | Detail |
| --- | --- |
| The wing is gone | Removing the Attack's active rear wing cuts maximum downforce from 1'400 to 150 kilograms. A longer tail, smaller front devices and removable rear-wheel covers reduce turbulence instead. |
| 25.21 seconds, measured | Markus Lundh accelerated the factory car from rest to 400 km/h and stopped again in 25.21 seconds at Örebro in August 2025. Racelogic recorded and verified the data. |
| No published maximum speed | Koenigsegg built the Absolut for a maximum-speed attempt and has published simulation language, not a certified terminal-speed figure. The 0.278 Cd value and acceleration record are evidence; 500 km/h remains a target. |

| Label | Value |

| Engine | 5.0L twin-turbo V8 |
| Power | 1'600 hp on E85 |
| Drag | 0.278 Cd |
