The Koenigsegg Jesko Attack has broken the record for the fastest production car at Laguna Seca Raceway in California, USA, completing the 3.6-kilometer track in 1 minute and 24.86 seconds.
What makes this achievement even more impressive is that the driver, Markus Lundh, had never raced on this track before. Despite this disadvantage, the Jesko Attack managed to surpass the previous record set by the Czinger 21C.

This is not the Jesko Attack’s first record; it had previously set a new mark at the Gotland Ring in Sweden. The model is known for its massive rear wing, which distinguishes it from the Absolut version, focused on top speed.
Recently, the Jesko Absolut also set a record by accelerating from 0 to 400 km/h and then coming to a complete stop in 27.83 seconds.
However, the most awaited record is the top speed, with Koenigsegg predicting that the Jesko Absolut will surpass the 482 km/h barrier. Although the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport has reached 490 km/h, it did not receive official Guinness recognition due to specific test conditions. Thus, the competition between brands to set new speed records remains fierce.
