Pagani Huayra Roadster

Description

“The objective is always to outdo oneself. Pure beauty in all shapes and surfaces” – this is the philosophy behind Horacio Pagani’s latest creation. From this foundation is built a masterpiece with a perfect balance of attention to detail and technological advancement. The combination of Art and Science: a founding principle and cornerstone to the philosophy of Pagani Automobili.

The story of the Pagani Huayra Roadster began in 2010 with a simple idea: transform the Huayra Coupe into a Roadster, much like the earlier Zonda Roadster of 2003. However, in 2013, the project took a bold turn as the design was completely reimagined. For Pagani, each creation embodies a distinct essence, where every detail harmonizes with the machine’s spirit and soul.

A goal set from the project’s outset was to create a Roadster lighter than its Coupe. Drawing on insights from the Zonda R, Huayra Coupe, and Huayra BC, Pagani’s engineering team perfected the art of carbo-titanium. This cutting-edge composite material, crafted specifically for the Pagani Huayra Roadster, surpasses even the materials found in Formula 1 cars.

Powering the Pagani Huayra Roadster is the Mercedes-AMG M158 engine, a twelve-cylinder masterpiece custom-crafted for Pagani by Mercedes-AMG. Evolving from the Huayra BC’s innovations, this engine unleashes a staggering 764 HP at 6200 RPM, with over 1000 NM of torque available from a mere 2400 RPM.

Even the Pirelli PZero Corsa tires for the Huayra Roadster are engineered to minimize rolling resistance, curbing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, exemplifying Pagani’s commitment to sustainability.

The Huayra Roadster offers two roof options. The first, a featherweight carbon hard top with a central glass element, quickly transforms the Roadster into a sleek coupe. The glass roof bathes passengers in natural light, shielding them from UV rays while maintaining the exhilarating open-air sensation. The second option is a fabric and carbon cover, effortlessly installed by hand and conveniently stowed within the Huayra Roadster. This Soft Roof can be deployed swiftly, providing peace of mind in any situation.
In the realm of automotive excellence, where innovation meets artistry, the Pagani Huayra Roadster stands as a testament to precision engineering, pushing the boundaries of performance and luxury.
