Koenigsegg saddles up new £3.8m limited-run hypercar

KOENIGSEGG has unveiled the Sadair's Spear- a new hypercar that has the same underpinnings as the Jesko, but with new aerodynamics, less weight and even more power.

The Jesko is named after founder Christian von Koenigsegg's father, and Sadair's Spear is his horse, which he rode in his final race as a jockey in 1976.

The new car has some mechanical tweaks over other Jesko variants, but it's been altered cosmetically too.

There's a new active top-mounted rear wing, an enlarged front splitter with independent underbody flaps, larger diffusers behind the wheels, a new front air dam and new side winglets.
