Koenigsegg proudly unveils Sadair’s Spear—a track-focused, road-legal masterpiece that redefines performance benchmarks. With more power, less weight, cutting-edge aerodynamics, and bespoke engineering throughout, this limited-edition hypercar pushes the boundaries of what’s possible on both the road and the circuit.
A Name with Legacy
The name Sadair’s Spear holds profound personal significance for Christian von Koenigsegg. Following the heartfelt tribute to his father, Jesko, through the eponymous Koenigsegg Jesko, Christian draws once again from family history.
Jesko von Koenigsegg, a passionate amateur jockey, rode his final race in 1976 on a horse named Sadair’s Spear. Honouring that legacy, the vehicle that now bears this name is engineered with uncompromising dedication to performance and precision.
Performance and Engineering Highlights
Top-mounted active rear wing with double-blade design for maximum downforce
Elongated rear profile enhances aerodynamic stability
Revised front aerodynamics: enlarged canards, louvres, and new Gurney flap improve airflow and cooling
Redesigned air intakes, increasing output by 20 hp on standard fuel and 25 hp on E85
Optimized oil cooling ensures sustained performance in extreme conditions
Exclusive carbon fibre Aircore wheels with directional turbine-blade design
Track-oriented tires and widened stance for enhanced grip
Custom suspension with Koenigsegg Triplex dampers and lightweight springs
Upgraded multi-layer carbon-ceramic brakes with enhanced pad compounds
Dedicated racing seats, available with optional 6-point harnesses
Unique interior detailing exclusive to Sadair’s Spear
Aerodynamics: Sculpted for Speed
Aerodynamic excellence lies at the core of Sadair’s Spear. Koenigsegg’s computational fluid dynamics (CFD) team refined every surface for optimum airflow, cooling, and downforce.
At the rear, the striking top-mounted double-blade wing works in harmony with refined underfloor strakes and wheel arch louvres to enhance high-speed cornering grip. The front features enlarged canards, updated hood vents, and wheel arch louvres—all boosting cooling and front-end grip.
Additional refinements like rear hood scoops and an integrated Gurney flap improve high-speed stability and engine efficiency, ensuring superior performance lap after lap.
Drivetrain: The Evolution of Power
At its heart, Sadair’s Spear is powered by Koenigsegg’s twin-turbo V8, paired with the revolutionary Light Speed Transmission (LST). Capable of revving at an astonishing 46,000 rpm/s, this powertrain delivers lightning-fast responsiveness.
Thanks to updated calibration and improved airflow, the engine produces 1,300 hp on standard fuel, and 1,625 hp on E85, taking Koenigsegg’s power-to-weight dominance even further—shedding around 35 kg to surpass the iconic 1:1 power-to-weight ratio set by the Koenigsegg One:1.
No other fully homologated road car offers this level of performance.
Interior: Focused, Functional, Fearless
The cabin of Sadair’s Spear is a statement in motorsport minimalism. A new lightweight carbon fibre center console and racing-inspired seats (available with optional 6-point harnesses) embody the car’s track-ready identity. All gear changes are handled via steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters, reinforcing the pure performance ethos.
Meticulous weight-saving measures include:
2.6 kg removed via reduced insulation
1.3 kg saved with advanced carbon fibre techniques
Further savings through lightweight mechanical and interior components
Despite the stripped-down approach, essential Koenigsegg features remain: SmartCluster display, SmartCenter infotainment, USB and wireless charging, Autoskin system, and birds-eye view parking assist.
A New Benchmark
Sadair’s Spear is not just an evolution—it’s a statement. Visually arresting and mechanically revolutionary, it balances aggressive performance with road-going sophistication. During initial shake-down testing at Gotland Ring, it eclipsed the Jesko Attack’s lap record by 1.1 seconds, a remarkable feat that underscores its potential.
Christian von Koenigsegg remarked: “Sadair’s Spear is the next logical step in our journey—a perfect blend of power, aerodynamics, and road presence. Achieving this level of track performance in a road-legal car is truly extraordinary.”
Strictly Limited. Instantly Iconic.
Only 30 units of Sadair’s Spear will be produced—all of which sold out immediately following a private unveiling. This hypercar joins Koenigsegg’s elite lineage as a future legend—born from heritage, built for dominance.
