Koenigsegg Jesko - The World's Most Powerful Production Engine
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 июл 2024
- The Koenigsegg Jesko's engine is packed with clever engineering. The 5.0L twin-turbo V8 engine produces 1600 horsepower on E85 fuel, with 1500 Nm of torque! Koenigsegg claims it's the most powerful.
Koenigsegg's latest megacar, the Jesko, will likely be it's last purely internal combustion engine powered vehicle. The car's numbers are unreal. 1600 HP. 1000 kg of downforce. It features Koenigsegg's Light Speed Transmission, a 9-speed, 7-clutch transmission capable of crazy fast shifts from any one gear to any other.
At the heart, is the twin-turbo V8. It's now a flatplane crankshaft, a departure from the Agera's crossplane crankshaft. This means it now revs higher, to 8500 RPM. Features include the ability to run on E85 or gasoline, triple fuel injectors per cylinder, tumble flow intake ports, a compressed air system to eliminate turbo lag, ceramic coated pistons to reduce hot spots, and individual pressure sensors to optimize engine timing. This video will dive into all the details!

Also, if you want to debate about pronunciation, Koenigsegg said both "Yes-ko" and "Jes-ko" during the debut at Geneva. Pronunciation is not what this video is about.
Yeah it's yesko in swedish but since it's an international car we really don't care.
First series production vehicle with 3 injectors per cylinder was Mazda RX8 HP :)
I was wondering if having the cylinder head intake angle flat would that help make the air tumble more or would it decrease the amount of resistance and make more power?
Does Jesko use the FreeValve technology?
Running on E85? Wouldn't octane be more important than ethanol content? I know plenty of places that sell 95 RON E85, in fact it's the only E85 I've seen on sale...
Isn't the higher horsepower number rather for 98 or even 100 RON regardless of ethanol content?
koenigsegg is like the only car manufacturer that does whatever the hell they wanna do and be very good at executing or producing them. AND still pass emissions at that.
@@tcroft2165 now put a turbo on it...
Unlike VW...
That's because they are some seriously badass engineers

No marketing crap. No market survying.
No profit margin maximization.
Barely any comprimise to anything else.
Just a bunch of people that want to put the most advanced tech they can come up with inside a car.
@@mycosys which is smart on their part. They can buy Honda engines and spec them out how they want for the car for way less than it'd take to engineer their own. Koenigsegg started with ford base engines in their early cars
Koenigsegg: if it ain't broke, make it lighter.
Or decrease the drag by reducing aeroparts
if it ain't broke, have it make more horsepower.

And more powerful lol
Please do a video on its gearbox too

But can it keep up with my Subaru BRZ with an aftermarket air filter?
Not if your Subaru has red brake calipers
If you have an aftermarket bumper and rear bumper. Not a chance.

Bro, no chance.
1 thing the brz has over jesko is bro power there is no better or more efficient way to make power. The air filter is just icing on the cake
CRAZY to think about 1600HP going through a 27 (12.5 kg) pound crankshaft. WTF.
That's some insane metallurgy for sure. It's amazing the specifications a car can take when cost of the final product isn't a concern.
Probably made out of titanium... JK that would be like a $2.000.000 crank.

What’s even cooler is jesko’s gearbox..really appreciate if you can explain that
Already done
Excellent. Hope you can do one with the 9 speed 7 clutch gearbox of the Jesko also.
i get why you"d want three clutches, but 7?
will need that explanation video
@@AnarchistMetalhead From my understanding, three clutches engage any of the 3 gearsets on the first gearshaft, leading to three more on the second one which also has three clutches. 3×3 = 9 different choices of pathing and so you have 9 forward gears. The last clutch is for bypassing the second gearshaft altogether making a reverse gear. There are videos explaining this, and they used the patent for reference.
Edit: Embarrassing math corrected.
I feel like people are unaware that modern 8-speed transmissions already use 5 clutch packs. Why is 9-speed with 7 clutches such a big deal?
@@AnarchistMetalhead
The reason why you want all those clutches is for the "racing" mode of the gear box where the car shifts itself depending on your current speed, torque, rpm and other factors. The Jesko is the first Koenigsegg car that has been equiped with a gear lever for a few years. You can only shift up or down one gear at a time with it, but it also comes with a second functionality where you push the lever forward twice to engage that "racing" mode. In a traditional dual clutch gearbox, the car can only efficiently shift from 1 -> 2; 2 -> 3; and so forth and verce visa. The 7 clutches allow the car to nearly instantanously shift from any gear into any gear. An example for this would be crusing on a highway. To save fuel, you will want to be at a high gear and run the engine on low rpm. Now imagine you want to take over a truck or any other vehicle in front of you. In that case you want high rpm and torgue so you shift down. If you were cruising at 100 km/h in lets say 7th gear, the car would have to shift down from 7 to 6, then from 6 to 5, from 5 to 4 and so on until you reach whatever gear suits your accelleration-needs the most. With the additional clutches, the car can (almost) instantly shift from 7th into 4th gear.
TL;DR The addtional clutches are for faster downshifting
@@flybyguy1450 because it's made in a completely different way. It's a compound gear system, without syncros, without flywheel.
Break time. That means time to watch some engineering explained.

500km/h, yes please!
This is quintessential EE. It's the reason I subscribed way back when, and the reason I keep coming back. You continue to be the epitome of high-level engineering explained clearly. Keep it up!
Always love watching your videos. I found you like 2 years ago and you have helped me to learn so much. Your sense of humor also cracks me up 😂
Thanks Tyler, really appreciate you watching for so long!
But does it have free-valve? That's tech I'm ready to see in production.
It does not, would be cool to see in a production car. New cylinder head versus the Agera, but mostly to implement tumble ports.
They ll have camless valve in the future version. (Floating valve
wait, I thought all koenigseggs used freevalve since a few years ago?
tommihommi1 not yet
I doubt that we will ever see that technology. By the time it's perfected the ICE will be supplanted by electric motors and improved batteries.
Thank you for making this video. I found it really informative.
I don't know why people dislike these videos. This guy clearly knows his stuff and has invested his time and money into making these wicked videos.
Keep making these awesome videos man! Really helps people out👌
Alright so far we're at

@@darryldixon788 Yeah well, this is essentially a combustion engine with some extra's as well. Why bother making a video, right?

Hope you can visit the factory in Sweden som time, should be an engineers dream :)
Very cool video. I was even able to understand most of it. Thanks
Nice and clean explanation.
Keep up the good work!
What's great about koenigsegg unlike some other hypercar manufacurers is that they don't just focus on top speed but they bring new innovations with every new model.
*M E G A C A R*
Mistrz7Losos I’ll take it! I’m tired of Hypercars!
Yeah I like it, because it has an objective meaning. Production car with more than 1MW (~1341HP) of power.
Supercar and hypercar are subjective terms and it mostly tells you how elitist the car was at the time of its release. Because hypercars specs 40 years ago would barely be supercars today.
I don't see a natural step up from mega though. Perhaps 2:1 power to weight ratio could be called something.

@@Muskar2 so the Chiron is a megacar?
Super informative !! Thank you !! Koenigsegg never ceases to amaze !!
Thanks a lot for your videos. I learn a lot from them👍
Another one of the white board classics😍 ... much appreciated
Opel, VAG and BMW are using cylinder pressure sensors for years now in high volume production.
First generation was an integrated design ob glow plug and CPS. New BMW B57 engines uses a separate CPS with an extra channel in the cylinder head for the sensor.
Fascinating, and these aren't simply knock sensors? Would love to read up more on this! Thanks.
Excellent presentation. Thanks for all the details.
Thanks for this great video on the teck for the JESKO.
It’s funny cause Hennessey wanted to make the first V8 with 1600+ horsepower and 301mph
They still can.
Hennessey dream too much
Too busy ripping off customers. 'muricah.
If Jonny "Ringo" Hennessey can, y'know, stay out of jail, he just might...
The SSC Tuatara has a 5.9l V8 producing 1750hp. It will hit 300mph before Koenigsegg or Hennessey. They are already doing their road testing.
Feel free to take some sip of water I feel thirsty watching you explaining continuously 😂
Fascinating video, Jason!
What a great informative video!
I liked ur video on it's title alone... And of course on general principle 😀
Please sir make video on how 7 clutch transmission works on this JESKO??
Just like nothing watch Shmee150’s video with Christian V. K. he explains how the technology works! :~) just look up shmee150 koenigsegg

Engineers passionate as hell in what they’re doing. Amazing
Hello Jason, great video as usual. I have a great question, why the Koenigsegg's camless engine hasn't been released yet in a production vehicle? Do you think that it'll be as revolutionary for ICEs as they claim?
Thanks!
What about the crazy design magic that they used to make a rear wing that huge actually look good?
There is beauty in function lol. I like how they mounted it so far back but the point it meets the chassis is way forward and has the leverage from the arm its mounted on
Very cool video. Love this
Boy do I love watching your videos man!
Okay, so secondary air systems are cool now. Thanks, Sweden.
Some Honda S2000s also had an air pump to help with emissions on startup.
Hey guys Chris Fix here! Wait wrong channel
Did you change your winter air out?
As always.
Great information.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Moreover at 1600hp cooling system should be strong as well. We expect more about jesko's cooling system in next video.
when you tweet a youtuber a video idea that you would like to see and a week later, i get exactly what i wanted lol
Yep, currently battery technology is the main limiting factor in how "good" current EV/Hybrid vehicles are. Once Hydrogen fuel cell becomes a fully realized technology, EVs will be unstoppable. Of course there are all kinds of factors before we get there (since we are not even close, just scratching the surface of the tech).

Can they really match the performance of this car with a hybrid? It will have to weight more.
Jesko 1600hp, 1420kg. No present hybrid comes close to that power to weight. Eg. Mclaren P1 903hp, 1547kg. La Ferrari 949hp, 1585kg.
Brad Haines For drag races yes, for everything else no
What? Where have you been for two years.....the 720s and gt2rs and now the Senna have proved hyprid tech is still not needed or ready! The P1s instant torque is useless when it has no traction to deploy it, the 918 weighed 1700kg and the laferraris hybrid made zero difference to an instant response high revving n/a engine.
@@bradhaines3142 instant torque means nothing. Launch control/brake boost= instant torque

Can’t wait!
Can you make a vids about which part of an Engine can be made of CarbonFiber and which couldn't and why? For example why we cannot made a Crankshaft or Pistons out of CB?
I've seen people run wooden pistons 😂
I wonder when freevalve will show up.
Same! Here's a video on it for anyone interested: ruclips.net/video/FJXgKY2O4po/видео.html
Exactly
Imo, Free valve is only good for optimal efficiency/torque along the whole rev range, doesn't really increase peak power. For performance engines, a simple vvt optimised for high peak power would suffice. Not to mention the risk of destroying the engine if a solenoid jammed due to computer lag.
@@MazdaRX7007 Yup but computer also controls injection, ignition and boost and getting those wrong can also kill an engine.
Amazing video. Really good explanation.
Great vid, with good explanations! Don't forget to breathe every now and then though ;) :D
I really like the level of explanation, perfectly balanced in between technical and pedagogical. Thats a subscriber more, looking forward to future content!
naive question maybe, but why don't they use direct injection?
Probably because of the weight. DI requires an additional high pressure pump. Maybe the pump weighs more than the additional 2 injectors?
Freevalve makes DI unnesecery
Because DI sucks. Theyre not reliable in the long term and the typical reason for its design is to cool the combustion chamber as fuel vaporizes to allow for higher compression. Since E85 allowz for higher compression without needing to cool the air more, they dont need it. Plus the third plenum injector cools the intake air as well so theres plenty of cool enough air. DI is great in theory but terrible in reality. Just not practical. Plus the use of DI injection pumps requires them to run off of the crankshafts rotation and with such high horsepower aim you need a lot of fuel. All that extra fuel needs plenty of time to atomize and if you dump a massive amount in the cylinder directly, it wont be able to atomize properly, in addtion to the pumps needing more power to operate pressures in exdess of 3000 psi and such high flow DI injectors would take up a lot of space in the cylinder. A bigger hole compromises the integrity of the head so with 1600hp, you need one hell of a solid engine.
@@ZzzRoofus thank you for that thorough explaination. everything seems to make sense.
The term "production engine" has completely lost it's intended meaning over the years.
Your enthusiasm is contagious!
Best channel for automotive engineering. I've learnt alot from your channel.
14:08 So you're saying the new Mazda 3 is basically a Koenigsegg?
I really hope big automakers are paying attention to Koenigsegg. These crazy Swedes aren't just sitting there listening to black metal, drinking mead out of horns, and making caveman style supercars. The ideas and technologies these guys come up with are absolutely brilliant, and with Koenigsegg still being a rather small company, their R&D time is light years ahead of the likes of GM, VW,and Ford. These are the people the big guys need to be paying attention to, not the eco mentalists crying for electric everything and the death of all things that anger Green Peace.
Well explained and great use of time!
👏👏Very cool engineering explained 👏👏
“Production car”.
Do u want them to put a f1 engine in a car?... Actually i would want them an f1 engine in... Especially an older one that revved to over 18k
I mean, they're making 125 of them. That's a solid quantity. Ferrari, Bugatti, Lamborghini, they all do quantities in that range with certain models.
Any street legal cars that has 25/30 units of quantity are considered as "production car".
Can we push back against the "Megacar" nomenclature?
"Gigacar" is so much better
Everything other than supercar sounds gay
@@fokjohnpainkiller "Gay" to mean "bad" in 2019
Ok
But, oh look, someone with a cartoon profile picture thinking their opinion is relevant
Koenigsegg himself could not have said it better, and he's really good at doing so. Thanks!
great video g
I was going to skip through this, but I found your presentation very engaging. Good teaching!
Great video
So this is probably the eighth video of yours I've watched in a row and somehow just now realized I was not subscribed to the channel. That problem is now fixed.
It's great to see someone else completely geek out about this car as much as I have. Nice of Koenigsegg to do so much research that everyone else is going to borrow eventually.
Monster!!! Nice explanation, thanks!
Awesome car & awesome video!
You really are a great teacher well done
Damn.
That is some proper engineering that went into that engine.
I absolutely love the way Koenigsegg does things.. there is no compromise like a typical production car it is all performance all the time.
pumping fresh air into the exhaust for better emissions on cold starts...the secondary air system on my 2002 Buick did that! funny how old technology still makes its way into these hyper cars.
Awesome explanation as always. Please explain their new transmission next.
