The Gemera was upgraded with the Jesko’s twin-turbo V8 part way through its development. Customers have to cough up an extra $400,000 for the V8 but get an extra 900 hp and almost 700 lb-ft of additional torque. Christian von Koenigsegg says the carmaker isn’t giving up on the...

V8s get a lot of attention when it comes to enthusiast cars, but the humble six-cylinder has become remarkably prevalent in an era where downsizing and turbocharging give you more power with a lower cylinder count. The six-cylinder strikes the balance between four and eight by providing a mix of an engine that can be smooth, reliable, and highly tuneable in the right scenarios.

Sympathetically, this car...

New hypercar with V12 and manual gearbox is a purist's dream

Since the widespread adoption of automatic transmissions, manuals have mostly been associated with performance cars. Slapping through the gears while winding out the engine is a thrilling experience, and nothing launches a 426 Street Hemi off the line like a four-speed.
