Pagani Automobili at the 2025 Monterey Car Week:
Over Twenty Years of Track Hypercars United for the First Time.

San Cesario sul Panaro, July 29, 2025 – Pagani Automobili returns to the Monterey Car Week with an unprecedented showcase. For the first time, more than two decades of track-only Hypercars will come together in a single event: a tribute to bold engineering, uncompromising research, and visionary thinking. Among the cars on display is the Huayra R Evo Roadster, the latest evolution in the Track Hypercar line and a key model within the exclusive Arte in Pista program. With its sculptural lines and the unmistakable sound of its naturally aspirated V12, this open-top creation draws every eye and evokes the timeless allure of classic single-seaters.

 

The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering | Friday, August 15

Pagani Track Hypercars will be among the most anticipated appearances at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, one of the cornerstone events of the Monterey Car Week. At noon, the engine of the Huayra R Evo Roadster will come to life at the Pagani stand, offering an unforgettable moment for the crowd. Shortly after, Horacio Pagani will greet fans during an autograph session at the Pagani Store.

Inspired by the Le Mans race cars of the 1960s, the Huayra R Evo Roadster (2024) is the most extreme Pagani ever built: roofless, uncompromising, and unapologetically raw. Its V12-R Evo engine delivers 900 HP and revs up to 9,200 rpm. Braking response is sharper, downforce has increased by 45%, and new heave dampers keep every movement in check. But beyond the numbers, it’s about what it makes you feel: the wind in your face, the sound that cuts through you, the sensation of becoming one with the track.

 

Alongside the latest creation, will be on display:

  • Zonda Monza (2004) – The first Pagani ever designed exclusively for the track. Commissioned by a client who already owned a Zonda S, it marked a bold departure toward uncompromising circuit performance. Featuring an integrated roll bar, plexiglass windows, a removable steering wheel, 380 mm floating brakes, and a Formula 1-style quick-refueling tank, it is powered by a 7.0-liter AMG V12. A true one-off, it embodies one of Pagani’s core beliefs: the track is not an exception — it’s a calling.
  • Zonda R (2009) – The natural next step after the Monza, born from a question Horacio Pagani and his team asked themselves: What happens when you remove all road-going constraints? Three years of study and testing, drawing from the most advanced solutions in Formula 1 and aerospace, led to a car of radical purity. A Carbo-Titanium monocoque, a 750 HP AMG V12 bolted directly to the chassis — every element engineered for one purpose: absolute speed. The result? A record lap at the Nürburgring Nordschleife: 6 minutes and 47 seconds.
  • Zonda Revolución (2013) – The ultimate evolution of the Zonda R. With 800 HP, a magnesium sequential gearbox derived from Le Mans prototypes, and lightning-fast gear shifts in just 20 milliseconds, the Revolución pushes every limit further. Its active DRS system adjusts aerodynamic load in real time, just like in Formula 1, while a featherweight curb mass of just 1,070 kg (2,359 lb) makes every corner a battle against the stopwatch.
  • Huayra R (2021) – A new chapter, and at the same time, a synthesis of over twenty years of research and development dedicated to the track. Inspired by the golden era of endurance racing in the 1960s and ’70s, it is powered by a naturally aspirated V12 delivering 850 HP and revving up to 8,250 rpm. Downforce reaches 1,000 kg (2,205 lb) at 320 km/h (199 mph), while the Carbo-Titanium HP62-G2 and Carbo-Triax HP62 monocoque offers safety levels worthy of a Le Mans prototype. Its unmistakable roar — named “Best Noise of the Year” by BBC Top Gear in 2022 — is more than unique: it’s unforgettable.

 

Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion | Saturday, August 16

The following day, the Huayra R Evo Roadster will take to the track at the legendary WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca for the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion — one of the world’s most prestigious events dedicated to historic racing cars, celebrating the 75th anniversary of Formula 1 this year. In this unique setting, the Hypercar will perform a special session of hot laps, bridging past and future in a tribute to motorsport engineering at its highest level of innovation, performance, and safety.
