Overview

• The Jesko Absolut achieved a 0-400 km/h-0 time of 25.21 seconds at Örebro airfield on August 7, reclaiming the production-car record from Rimac’s 25.79-second mark.
• Koenigsegg credited the gain to Absolut Overdrive software tweaks that optimize its Light Speed Transmission, engine management and torque control without any hardware changes.
• Factory driver Marcus Lundh executed the run, which was independently verified using Racelogic timing equipment to ensure accuracy.
• The no-hardware-change update will be distributed to every Jesko Absolut in customer hands, extending performance gains post-delivery.
• Performing the run on a drying, sub-optimal runway suggests the Jesko could achieve even faster times under ideal conditions.
