FIRST DRIVE: Koenigsegg Jesko Attack Unleashed on TG Test Track!

It’s not often Top Gear’s Head of Car Testing has his head scrambled by a fast machine, but the Koenigsegg Jesko Attack is a very fast machine indeed. A 1578bhp twin-turbo V8 is partly to blame, and with carbonfibre keeping the weight down, not much blunts the performance either. Then there’s the downforce, up to 1400kg of it, which means the Jesko Attack is not merely fast in a straight line. Clearly, we needed somewhere suitably proper to test such a car, and that place is our very own TG Test Track. This then, is the £ Koenigsegg Jesko Attack, unleashed in the (sweaty) hands of Top Gear’s Ollie Marriage… Thank you to CARAGE who provided a Koenigsegg Jesko Attack and a Jesko Absolut for this video.
