On June 25, 2025, Koenigsegg unveiled something special: the Sadair’s Spear, a track-focused hypercar that pushes the Jesko platform to new levels. This car is both a performance beast and a personal tribute, and with all 30 units already sold, it’s clear Koenigsegg knows how to grab attention.
Story Behind the Name
The Sadair’s Spear has a story behind its name. Christian von Koenigsegg named it after a racehorse his father, Jesko, rode in his final race in 1976. “This car honors my father’s love for racing and that horse,†Christian said. It’s not just about going fast it’s about family. How often do you see a hypercar with that kind of meaning?
Performance That Defies Reality
The numbers are wild. The Sadair’s Spear has a twin-turbo 5.0-liter V8 that pumps out 1,625 horsepower on E85 fuel (or 1,300 hp on regular gas). It revs to 8,500 rpm and weighs only 1,385 kg–35 kg lighter than the Jesko. It’s already outdone the Jesko Attack’s lap record at Gotland Ring by 1.1 seconds in early tests. Can you imagine hitting the gas in this thing?

Design Built for the Track
The Sadair’s Spear looks ready to attack. Its top-mounted double-blade active rear wing adds serious downforce, while an extended rear and bigger front canards keep it planted. Every detail, from side splitters to the sleek shape, is built for speed and grip. It’s like the Jesko got a gym membership and came out meaner.
Inside the Beast
Inside, it’s all about the driver. Carbon seats with optional six-point harnesses feel pure racecar, and a steering-mounted display keeps you focused. But it’s still got the Jesko’s infotainment and parking camera because even a track beast needs to navigate a parking lot. Ever thought about what it’d feel like to sit in one of these?
All 30 units sold
Want one? Too bad they’re all gone. All 30 units sold out fast, each customized for its owner. That kind of exclusivity is what makes Koenigsegg fans go crazy.
A Price Tag for the Elite
The Sadair’s Spear starts at £3.8 million (roughly $5 million), though custom options like unique paint or materials could push it higher. Each of the 30 units is tailored to its owner, making this hypercar a rare piece of automotive art.
Final Thoughts
The Sadair’s Spear is a rocket on wheels, a love letter to speed. It’s the kind of car that makes you wonder if Koenigsegg hired a wizard to build it. For the lucky few who’ll drive it, it’s a ticket to adrenaline heaven. For the rest of us? We’ll just be drooling over it in Forza Horizon, praying we don’t crash it into a virtual tree.
