The unique selling points of this Jesko Attack are numerous. The 5.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine adopts a flat-plane design. The rotation limit can reach 8500 rpm. The base power is 1,280 hp and the torque is 1,000 Nm. Biofuel gasoline (containing 51-83% ethanol), the power can be increased up to 1,600 hp and 1,500 Nm. In addition, The engine uses high pressure air nozzles to pre-start the Turbo fan blades, greatly reducing Turbo lag and eliminating the need to add two small Turbo boosters. The catalytic converter can be instantly preheated by high voltage current to achieve the best emission reduction effect during cold starting. The new 9-speed LST (Light Speed ​​Transmission) gearbox has seven integrated small wet clutches to directly control rotation. The factory claims that the turnaround time is virtually zero seconds and the structure is much simpler than the dual DCT. -Clutch design. With the entire gearbox weighing just 90kg, it is 40% lighter than the DCT.

As this Jesko Attack has just landed, the parts are not completely broken in and you have to be very careful when driving this priceless treasure on ordinary roads, so as not to be able to take full advantage of its acceleration performance. My first impression of the car is that the handling is very nimble and light, and the steering response is super quick and precise. It’s quite bulky, but it’s as agile as a 911GT3 RS or a 488 Pista, but twice as powerful as them. What surprised me the most is that the rotation of the waves is really super fast, and as long as the wave stick is pushed forward (in manual +/- mode), the wave box can jump directly from the wave 7 to wave 3 to accelerate with the strongest torque. The process is as fast as lightning. The feeling of power and sound is truly incredible, just like driving a fighter jet.
