The Koenigsegg Jesko, one of the most exclusive and powerful hypercars in the world, is designed to push the boundaries of speed and engineering. Capable of surpassing 300 miles per hour, the Jesko features a twin-turbo V8 engine and an innovative nine-speed multi-clutch transmission that allows for lightning-fast gear changes. With only 125 units produced, it is truly a rare automotive masterpiece.
Steve Hamilton, renowned car collector and owner of The Hamilton Collection, is set to receive his own 2024 Koenigsegg Jesko. In a recent YouTube video, Steve shared his excitement as he experienced the Jesko firsthand, although not from the driver’s seat. Instead, he sat in the passenger seat while Frederick, a knowledgeable member of Koenigsegg’s aftermarket team, demonstrated the hypercar’s capabilities.
Frederick guided Steve through the various driving modes and features of the Jesko, including the hypercar’s rapid gear shifts, which Frederick claims outpace even the McLaren P1. Although Steve had hoped to drive the car himself, the ride was still exhilarating. He described the Jesko as incredibly responsive and comfortable, living up to its reputation as a hypercar designed for both performance and luxury.
What made the experience even more special was that the car they were in was the only full production model of the Jesko, representing the final version that will be delivered to customers. This added a layer of excitement as Steve prepares to take delivery of his own Jesko next year.
While Steve couldn’t get behind the wheel just yet, his time in the passenger seat heightened his anticipation for his 2024 model, leaving him eager to fully experience the hypercar’s unrivaled performance in the near future.
