$3 Million Koenigsegg Jesko Hypercar Burns To The Ground While Taking Part In Tour

$3 million-plus Koenigsegg Jesko hypercar burns to the ground While taking part in 6to6 Motor Europe tour.

It was one of 70 supercars participating in tour, with planned stops in Albania, Croatia, and Italy, before finishing in Monaco.

Luckily, no one, including the driver and a passenger, was injured in the accident on Saturday.

But the same cannot be said for the 1,600-HP Koenigsegg Jesko, which was reduced to a charred frame and cinders.

One of just 125 examples of Koenigsegg Jesko hypercars has been consumed by fire while participating in the 6to6 Motor Europe Tour from Athens to Monaco on Saturday morning.

This particular Jesko was one of 70 supercars reportedly participating in the 6to6 Motor Europe Tour, with planned stops in Albania, Croatia, and Italy, before finishing in Monaco.

Luckily, no one, including the driver and the passenger, was injured in the accident. But the same cannot be said for the Jesko, which was reduced to a charred frame and cinders.

This Jesko isn’t the base variant but the 1600-hp track-focused Attack Nur version with an a $443,400 unpainted carbon fiber body accented by 24-carat gold trim details.

This nearly brand new $3 million-plus Koenigsegg Jesko hypercar reportedly had less than 200 kilometers (124 miles) on the odometer when the fire occurred.

“The driver and the passenger are perfectly fine and were able to get out of the car in time,” 6to6 Motor Europe Tour representative, Pablo Callejón Muzelle, told Road & Track.

Named after Jesko von Koenigsegg – the father of company Founder and CEO, Christian von Koenigsegg, the hypercar is the successor to the record-breaking 1,360-horsepower Agera RS.

Koenigsegg Jesko comes with re-designed 5.0 litre twin-turbo V8 engine, which produces 1,280 horsepower on standard petrol — and 1,600 horsepower when fueled on E85 biofuel.
