Pagani has unveiled its latest masterpiece, the Huayra\u202fCodalunga\u202fSpeedster, an open\u2011top hypercar that fuses mid\u2011century racing aesthetics with state\u2011of\u2011the\u2011art engineering. Handcrafted by Pagani\u2019s Grandi\u202fComplicazioni division, this long\u2011tail speedster is a tribute to the elegance and performance of 1950s and \u201960s race cars, offering a minimalist yet sculptural design language.<\/p>\n
Externally, the Speedster adopts the extended silhouette of the Codalunga coupe<\/a> it is based on, stretching to about 193.3\u202finches. This makes it 11\u202finches longer than the standard Huayra. Its greenhouse features a dramatically lowered windshield and side windows that arc delicately into the bodywork. While the removable hardtop echoes classic aerodynamic canopies, when removed, it leaves behind a clean and uninterrupted profile. Right from nose to tail, the form is uninterrupted and fluid.<\/p>\n Designer: Pagani<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n Every curve and panel is meticulously shaped for aerodynamic purity. Air is channeled via hidden NACA ducts in the underbody, while smooth surfaces minimize drag. CFD\u2011refined wheel arches complement an integrated front splitter, delivering balance across the axles without resorting to overt wings or vents. Subtle six\u2011outlet exhaust tips (four centrally mounted and two tucked into the diffuser) complete the rear visual narrative. The powertrain is a twin\u2011turbocharged 6.0\u202fL Mercedes\u2011AMG V\u201112, outputting 864\u202fhp and 811\u202flb\u2011ft of torque, identical to the Huayra Utopia and more potent than the original Codalunga coupe. Power is routed through a seven\u2011speed Xtrac gearbox, and for the first time, Pagani offers a true manual option alongside its automated\u2011manual setup, making the Speedster the second Huayra ever to feature a stick shift after the Epitome.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Engineering is rooted in lightweight strength. The monocoque combines Carbo\u2011Titanium and Carbo\u2011Triax composites to achieve rigidity without excess mass. Active suspension, Brembo carbon\u2011ceramic brakes, Avional wheels, and Pirelli Trofeo\u202fR tires deliver the precision and responsiveness expected from a hypercar of this caliber. Inside, the cockpit is a testament to artisanal craftsmanship. Surfaces are adorned with hand\u2011stitched leathers, solid\u2011milled metals, and a unique embroidery inspired by Pagani\u2019s signature quad\u2011exhaust motif. Reports note this haute couture trim involves over 450,000 meticulously sewn stitches. Mahogany accents on the steering wheel and shifter nod to the mid\u2011century aesthetic while reinforcing a tactile, analog feel.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Production will be strictly limited to ten units, each fully homologated for global road use, with customer deliveries anticipated to commence in 2026. While pricing has not been officially disclosed, the cost is expected to exceed the coupe\u2019s \u20ac7\u202fmillion base, likely pushing toward a significantly higher figure given its exclusivity and bespoke open\u2011top design. In a market increasingly focused on overt aero, electrification, and aggressive styling, the Pagani Huayra Codalunga Speedster stands apart.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n It is a rolling sculpture that embodies timeless design, analog driving purity, and the luxury of bespoke craftsmanship. For collectors seeking an emotional connection and a visceral driving experience, it symbolizes the rarest intersection of art and automotive performance. Does it overshadow the Huayra R Evo<\/a> (a more sportier version) revealed in the latter half of last year is purely subjective.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The post Pagani Huayra Codalunga Speedster debuts as an ultra-rare open-top V12 hypercar<\/a> first appeared on Yanko Design<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Pagani has unveiled its latest masterpiece, the Huayra\u202fCodalunga\u202fSpeedster, an open\u2011top hypercar that fuses mid\u2011century racing aesthetics with state\u2011of\u2011the\u2011art engineering.
