In February, the guys from Carwow tested the Koenigsegg Jesko Attack against the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport in a drag race, where it didn’t prove successful. Now they’ve decided to pit it against two of the company’s supercars, the Koenigsegg Regera and the Jesko Absolut.

The Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut is powered by a 5.0-L bi-turbo V8 engine with 1,622 hp (1,209 kW) and 1,106 lb-ft (1,500 Nm) @ 5,100 rpm (on E85). The engine is paired with a 9-speed Koenigsegg Light Speed ​​​​​​Transmission (LST).

The Koenigsegg Regera is powered by a 5.0-L twin-turbo V8 engine combined with three electric motors for a total of 1,500 hp and 2,000 Nm of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a single-speed torque converter gearbox.

Behind the wheel of the Koenigsegg Regera was Markus, who had broken two world records with these two models. Interestingly, the company had never compared these cars. After turning off traction control and stability control, they went to test.

In the first race, the Jesko Absolut had a way better start, leaving the Regera far behind. Then they decided to repeat the race but this time they adjusted the pressure in the Jesko Absolut tires, which this time were even more convincing. At one point, driver Mat Watson said: “This is frickin’ nuts!” They repeated the race two more times but the Jesko Absolut was better each time.

The Jesko Absolut covered the 1/4 mile in 8.9 seconds while the Regera covered the same distance in 10.2 seconds. During the race, the Jesko Absolut accelerated to 60 mph in 2.78 seconds while the Regera reached 60 mph in 3.4 seconds.

Starting from 2nd gear, Jesko showed his strength again and was convincingly faster than Regera. Then Watson decided to start from 4th gear at 80 km/h, Regera held on for a few seconds but after that Jesko drove like a rocket to 1/2 mile.

In the braking test at 60 km/h, Jesko confirmed his dominance in this duel.
