The Koenigsegg Sadair’s Spear<\/a> is the Swedish hypercar maker’s most extreme track-focused machine yet \u2014 and yes, it’s still road-legal. Based on the Jesko<\/a>, the Sadair’s Spear is lighter, more powerful, and pushes the limits of aero, tire tech, and chassis tuning. Limited to just 30 units, each costing around $5 million, it is named after the racehorse ridden by Christian von Koenigsegg’s father in his final race in 1976.<\/p>\n

It features numerous aerodynamic refinements, including larger bonnet vents, wider louvres over the front wheels, and a dramatically enlarged front splitter. The centerpiece is a massive active twin-blade rear wing, paired with rear bodywork borrowed from the low-drag Jesko Absolut.<\/p>\n

Powering the Sadair’s Spear is Koenigsegg’s 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8, delivering 1,300 horsepower on standard 95-octane fuel and a staggering 1,625 horsepower when running on E85. It’s mated to a flywheel-free Light Speed Transmission capable of shifting gears in just 0.2 seconds, and revs up to 8,500 rpm.<\/p>\n

Top Gear<\/a>\u2019s Jack Rix caught up with Koenigsegg\u2019s founder and CEO, Christian von Koenigsegg, for a deep dive into the car\u2019s design philosophy. Watch the video to learn more about the fastest and most extreme Koenigsegg yet.<\/p>\n
