Koenigsegg Sadair's Spear

With increased power, reduced weight, a track-focused interior, upgraded brakes and suspension, and finely tuned aerodynamics, Sadair's Spear delivers an extraordinary combination of blistering track capability and full road legality across global markets and sets a new bar in Koenigsegg's performance evolution.

A Name Rooted in Heritage
The inspiration behind the name "Sadair's Spear" is deeply personal. Christian von Koenigsegg previously honored his father, Jesko, on his 80th birthday by naming the Koenigsegg Jesko after him, a heartfelt tribute to his invaluable support during Koenigsegg's formative years.

Jesko von Koenigsegg was a passionate gentleman jockey with lifelong ties to Sweden's equestrian community. His favorite racehorse - the one he rode in his final race in 1976 was named Sadair's Spear. Fittingly, the car bearing this storied name is uncompromisingly engineered for peak track performance.

Mastery of Airflow
Unmatched aerodynamic performance is central to Sadair's Spear. Koenigsegg's advanced CFD team meticulously optimized airflow, ensuring unprecedented downforce and cooling. The active, top-mounted double-blade rear wing is carefully crafted for maximum cornering traction at track speeds, working in harmony with refined underfloor strakes and wheel arch louvers.

Sadair's Spear represents a natural progression for Koenigsegg - an impeccable balance of raw power, refined aerodynamics, and extraordinary road presence. This car is destined to set records. Achieving such track dominance in a fully road-legal vehicle is nothing short of remarkable.

Balancing this rear downforce, the front-end aero package - including larger canards, enhanced hood vents, and refined wheel arch louvers - further increases cooling efficiency and downforce. Together with the front Triplex damper and Active Ride Height system, these enhancements deliver extraordinary steering feedback and dynamic handling.

Specially designed rear hood scoops further boost engine performance at high speeds, while a revised front hood vent with an integrated Gurney flap ensures optimal cooling airflow, providing additional downforce in critical areas.

Exhilarating Power Redefined
Powering Sadair's Spear is Koenigsegg's formidable twin-turbo V8 engine, delivering astonishing responsiveness via the revolutionary flywheel-free Light Speed Transmission (LST), capable of revving at a staggering 46,000 rpm/s. Enhanced airflow and cooling, coupled with an engine calibration update, increase output to 1,300hp on regular unleaded fuel, and up to 1,625hp using eco-friendly E85 fuel.

Celebrating a decade since the groundbreaking Koenigsegg One:1, Sadair's Spear pushes the power-to-weight boundary even further, dropping around 35 kg of weight to achieve an extraordinary ratio, even surpassing the iconic 1:1 benchmark. Koenigsegg continues its unmatched legacy as the world's only premier manufacturer of fully homologated road vehicles exceeding a 1:1 power-to-weight ratio.

Interior - Minimalism Meets Performance
Inside, the cockpit of Sadair's Spear showcases a lightweight, minimalist center console and redesigned carbon fiber seats. Standard three-point seatbelts can be optionally upgraded to a 6-point racing harness (Six-point racing harnesses are available in select markets only). True to its track-oriented philosophy, gear changes via the Light Speed Transmission are executed solely through steering wheel-mounted paddles.

Weight reduction continues throughout the interior, saving 2.6 kg through reduced sound insulation, another 1.3 kg with new carbon fiber techniques, and further contributions from lightweight interior and mechanical components, collectively shedding 35 kg.

Koenigsegg's hallmark comforts and advanced features remain: the steering-mounted SmartCluster display, SmartCenter command interface, USB connectivity, inductive phone charging, Koenigsegg's innovative Autoskin system, and birds-eye parking assist.
