Top speed: 330mph (claimed)

Okay, so the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut hasn’t actually physically hit its top speed just yet, but the Swedish firm’s simulations confidently suggest it will achieve a staggering 330mph.

Driven by a searingly powerful twin-turbocharged 5.0-litre V8 engine, the Jesko Absolut is capable of producing 1280bhp, or 1600bhp when using E85 biofuel.

Koenigsegg says the car is inspired by fighter jets, and it’s not hard to see why.

All that power, partnered with an extra-slippery 0.278 drag coefficient and a nine-speed transmission, means it can hit 0-62mph in around 2.0sec and 0-100mph in 3.6sec.

If the Jesko can match its theoretical top speed and simulation results, it’ll be the undisputed fastest production car built so far.
