A Koenigsegg Sadairs Spear of LEGO TECHNIC In real size and completely manageable, he has just broken a historic record: he reached the 111 km/h On the legendary hill of Goodwood, more than double the previous record of 50 km/h. The feat celebrates the launch of a new set that hits stores this July.
What record did the LEGO Koenigsegg set?
The LEGO Group and Koenigsegg They revealed a collaboration built on shared ambition, precision and innovation. to celebrate the launch of the new Lego Technic Megacar Koenigsegg Sadairs Spear, both brands took a life-size replica of the car to the Goodwood estate in England to face its famous hill climb.
at the wheel was Markus Lundh, test pilot Koenigsegg, who in 2025 had already set the record for climbing on that same hill with the real Sadairs Spear. This time, driving the LEGO construction in reverse down the slope, Lundh reached a maximum speed of 111 km/h, thus setting the record as the fastest LEGO Technic big construction car in history.
What is the LEGO Koenigsegg made of life size?
Real scale construction is made with 327,906 LEGO elements, it weighs approximately 1,800 kilograms, of which 400 kg corresponds only to LEGO pieces, and required more than 9,400 hours development and construction. Its most complex details include a lightweight body built with LEGO Technic parts, a functional ghost mode and even the Koenigsegg feature key replica, all designed to reflect the functionality of the real vehicle.
What does the new LEGO Technic Koenigsegg set include?
The new set, sixth model in the series LEGO Technic Ultimate Car Concept, consists of 4,104 pieces It includes a V8 piston engine, a 9-speed functional transmission, a front and rear triplex suspension system, and a rotary indicator disc that visually shows at what speed the model is located.
Its most outstanding feature is the Functional Phantom Mode: With a single movement, raise the rear cover, open the synchro-helix dihedral doors and the front chest, and fold the mirrors — exactly replicating the functionality of the real megacar. The set also includes functional steering and removable roof.

What they say behind the collaboration
as stated Christian von Koenigsegg, CEO of the car brand, seeing the Sadairs Spear recreated both in 1:8 scale and in a life-size manageable version demonstrates how a shared passion for engineering can generate extraordinary results. For his part, Kasper Rene Hansen, Senior Model Designer in the LEGO Group, pointed out that the objective was to create the most advanced LEGO Technic construction produced so far, incorporating technical scoops such as the functional ghost mode and the 9-speed sequential gearbox.
Why this record matters for LEGO Technic fans
This milestone not only celebrates the launch of a new set, it formally establishes a new category of records within the history of Goodwood: LEGO car speed records. For the LEGO Technic builder community, which for years has seen the technical sophistication of the Ultimate Car Concept series grow, this achievement confirms that the line continues to push the limits of what is possible to build with LEGO functional pieces.
