Koenigsegg Jesko turns into a monster

LMM Design has published several 3D renderings of a very special Koenigsegg Jesko Hydra hypercar, reportedly created in a single instance for an anonymous client.

The one-off derives its name from the ancient Greek mythology, specifically the water-dwelling, nine-headed Lernaean Hydra (although some sources would argue about the head count, putting it somewhere between 7 and 100). The implied analogy is that the Jesko packs a nine-speed semi-auto transmission.

Other notable details include a visible-carbon body adorned with purple accents, a custom aerodynamic kit with canards at the front, a roof scoop, and a stabilizer fin.

The cabin features the titular beast’s name spelled on the dashboard and has its depictions on the headrests.

The car’s stock five-liter V8 churns out 1,280 PS (1,262 hp / 941 kW) on regular fuel and 1,600 PS (1,578 hp / 1,177 kW) when tanked with the E85.
