The brand new Huayra Epitome will get a gated seven-speed and 852 horsepower.
Identical to the Zonda, Pagani will in all probability preserve constructing particular variations of the Huayra hypercar till clients stop asking. We have already seen the Codalunga, the Imola, and the Huayra R. Now Pagani is debuting a brand new model at this yr’s Goodwood Competition of Paceāand it has a handbook.
That is proper, that is the primary Pagani Huayra with a handbook transmission. The appropriately named Huayra Epitomeāmeant to symbolize peak Paganiāwas commissioned by an exceptionally well-off consumer wanting a Huayra with a handbook shifter. The seven-speed gearbox comes from Xtrac and makes use of the “newest triple-disc clutch for higher torque transmission.” And it is housed inside an attractive aluminum open gate, similar to within the Utopia.
That seven-speed handbook is hooked up to a twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V-12 engine from Mercedes-AMG that makes 852 horsepower and 811 pound-feet of torque, and revs to six,700 rpm. The Huayra Epitome has the identical quantity of energy because the Utopia, permitting it to realize a high velocity of 217.5 miles per hour. A six-way titanium exhaust system sends sound bellowing out of the Huayra’s bottom, full with a blown diffuser for further downforce.
Elsewhere, engineers tightened up the suspension. The Epitome has much less pitch and roll than the usual Huayra, Pagani says, however there’s a āTremendous Tenderā mode that retains the experience at its cushiestāyou already know, for cruising round Monaco or the shores of Lake Como. That drive mode robotically shuts off at 93 mph.
The outside will get a slight redesign that features a entrance and rear bumper remedy with new LED lighting accents and a bigger grille for improved airflow. An enormous built-in rear wing graces the trunk lid, and all the physique is draped in a darkish blue carbon fiber weave. Gold accents and gold wheels end off the upscale look.
The automotive was constructed by Paganiās Grandi Complicazioni particular autos division and took 9 months to plan, and one other 10 months to finish. However if you need oneāyouāre out of luck. This would be the solely Huayra of its sort.
