Two Record-Setting Zondas on Static Display

Among the highlights of the event are a Zonda S and a Zonda F, both of which have set lap records at the famed Nürburgring track.

The Zonda S, with its Monte Carlo Grey livery and Cognac leather and nubuck interior, is part of Pagani Automobili’s collection. In 2002, it clocked a lap time of 7’44”, setting a new production car record on the Nordschleife, the classic configuration of the Nürburgring circuit. This model represents a significant evolution over its predecessor in every aspect: more powerful, more efficient, and more precise. While it exudes an aggressive and imposing presence, it is when the engine roars to life that its ferocity truly comes to the fore. The naturally aspirated Mercedes-AMG V12 engine growls with power outside, yet inside the cabin, it remains surprisingly quiet. Once behind the wheel, the Zonda S offers an unexpected level of comfort for a Hypercar of its era.

Also on display will be the Zonda F Coupé, which in 2007 shattered the Nürburgring production car lap record with a remarkable time of 7’27”82. The ‘F’ in its name pays homage to Juan Manuel Fangio, one of the most celebrated and beloved Formula 1 drivers in history, and a mentor to Horacio Pagani. This vehicle features a two-tone exterior with light grey and exposed carbon finishes, complemented by a meticulously crafted red leather interior. The interior details reflect Pagani’s commitment to excellence, evident in the Nardi steering wheel, wooden accents, and a dashboard inspired by the craftsmanship of traditional watchmakers. Weighing in at just 1,230 kg (2,718 lb), the Zonda F’s weight is kept to a minimum through the use of titanium, aluminum, and Inconel components.

A Pagani Utopia on Display

Completing the display is the Utopia, a Hypercar that marks the beginning of the third chapter in Pagani Automobili’s history. Its flowing lines, inspired by the 1950s and 60s, exude a timeless elegance while maintaining an unmistakably Pagani character. Signature features such as the iconic four exhausts and a carbon fiber monocoque are now enhanced with even more advanced materials like Carbo-Titanium HP62-G2 and Carbo-Triax HP62, making it more resistant and lighter than ever. The car’s design achieves exceptional aerodynamic efficiency without the need for external appendages.

• Pagani Automobili will participate in the 2024 Edition of the “Monterey Car Week”.
• On August 16th, the Utopia Roadster will be officially debuted to top collectors and enthusiasts at the exclusive event, “The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering.”
• At the Pagani stand, alongside the new model, a selection of Roadsters that trace the history of the Modenese Atelier will be displayed: the Zonda Arrivederci – which will be publicly unveiled for the first time, the Huayra Roadster, the Huayra Roadster BC and the Imola Roadster.
• On August 17th, a parade of Pagani Hypercars will reach the “Exotics on Broadway” event, with the participation of Horacio Pagani.

San Cesario sul Panaro, August 7th, 2024 — Pagani Automobili is pleased to announce its participation in the “Monterey Car Week”, an annual celebration of automotive excellence taking place from August 9th to 18th in California.

The first public display of the Utopia Roadster

This event, held annually on the lawns of the Quail Lodge & Golf Club, has brought together enthusiasts and connoisseurs worldwide for over twenty years, presenting a collection of cars of remarkable rarity and exceptional value.

At “The Quail”, the Utopia Roadster – the latest creation from the San Cesario Atelier – will be revealed to the public for the first time. This Hypercar represents the pinnacle of a continuous quest that merges sophisticated technology with timeless design. Lightweight, dynamic, and high-performing, it is designed in continuity with the Coupé version while introducing distinctive elements. Featuring a seamlessly integrated hard-top, it offers the flexibility of an open or closed driving experience, while maintaining the same weight as its counterpart. This vehicle celebrates the timeless allure of mechanical purity, from the Pagani V12 engine, devoid of hybrid support, to avant-garde design elements such as the gearbox and pedal system, where every mechanism is visible and meticulously crafted. It embodies Pagani’s most advanced technology, resulting from sophisticated aerodynamic studies and the integration of over forty composite material formulas. The Utopia Roadster brings innovative technologies to the road, such as the Pirelli Cyber™ Tyre sensor system, which allows the tires to communicate with the vehicle improving its safety. Each of the 130 Utopia Roadsters will be unique, thanks to the extensive range of available customizations, allowing each Hypercar to tell the story of its owner.

The showcased Hypercars and the Pagani stand’s new features

Pagani’s exhibition area will feature a selection of Pagani Roadsters, showcasing the brand’s evolution, including the Zonda Arrivederci, the Huayra Roadster, the Huayra Roadster BC and the Imola Roadster. Horacio Pagani, Founder and Chief Designer of Pagani Automobili, will also attend the event, available to meet with customers and enthusiasts.

The Zonda chassis number 140, the final original example of a road-going Zonda aptly named “Arrivederci”, will be revealed to the public for the first time. Arrivederci – which means “farewell” in Italian – celebrates the culmination of an era. This unique open-top Hypercar features an ultra-deep Blu Danubio livery, hand-painted over a bespoke body made from Alutex, a composite material used exclusively by Pagani for this car. Blue and red stripes enrich the exterior configuration, emphasizing the main lines of the bodywork. The interior is saddled with candy red leather, the same as the Huayra “La Monza Lisa”, which shares the same owner. The accompanying luggage set is also finished in this fine leather. The Zonda Arrivederci is further distinguished by a set of custom-designed rims inspired by those from the Zonda S.

The Huayra Roadster is a car on which every mechanical component is proudly displayed, celebrating the attention to every single detail. «Everything had to be unique, like a car carved from a block of Carrara marble». This is how Horacio Pagani describes this model, an open-air homage to the God of Wind. The entire project holds a special place in the hearts of the entire Pagani team, as it represents the first instance of a roadster being lighter than its coupé counterpart. An achievement that took nearly six years of development, thanks to a complete redesign of all components and the creation of new advanced composite materials, such as Carbo-Triax HP52 combined with Carbo-Titanium.

Here it is: the Utopia Roadster, the latest creation of our Atelier, the pinnacle of our ongoing research aimed at crafting objects combining the most sophisticated technology with timeless design. Finding the words to describe the projects to which we have devoted time and passion is always difficult, so we have entrusted this unenviable task to a dear old friend who has accompanied us throughout our journey. Dr. Robert Puyal, an independent journalist and wordsmith, has captured the essence of our new Hypercar and will share his own impressions with you.

We will leave you with his thoughts. You are in good hands.

Horacio Pagani

The Roadster as a response to the car enthusiast’s dilemma

Two years ago, Pagani Automobili unveiled the Utopia, a car whose very name embodies the philosophy of a relentless pursuit towards perfection, an unattainable ideal that nonetheless inspires creators to aspire to excellence. Project C10, Utopia’s code name, came into being with the dual nature of Roadster and Coupé already written in its destiny, following the enthusiasm generated by previous models. However, unlike the roadster versions of the Zonda and Huayra – which were designed after their respective closed versions – here the development of the two variants took place jointly.

What better way to solve the enthusiasts’ old dilemma? Gran Turismo aficionados have always debated as to which is the purer expression: a closed or open cabin. Both traditions boast a rich pedigree and supporters of the two contrasting options are often irreconcilable. The only way for Pagani to help resolve this quandary was to offer both versions, leaving fans free to choose between them. Invariably, those who favor performance opt for coupés, since they tend to be lighter and more agile. But the criterion does not apply here, as the Utopia Roadster is just as light, dynamic, and high-performance as its closed sister.

The styling of the two versions is an expression of continuity, being the work of the same team of designers and engineers; a team united by common visions, working under the guidance of Horacio Pagani in the Modenese Atelier. The doors have the same elegant butterfly kinematics, a fascinating and sophisticated mechanism. When one wishes to travel under the open sky, the hard-top can be placed on a stand, transforming it into a piece of design to be looked at and admired. In addition to this, there is a soft-top, which can be stored in a suitcase in place of the vanity case that is usually located centrally behind the two seats. The same car can therefore convert into three different versions, each to be preferred depending on the season, the mood, the desire to feel enclosed and protected or in contact with the open air, and the wind gently caressing the face.

On board the Utopia Roadster, the floor mats have a specific texture reminiscent of an outboard boat, and the key has been redesigned, recalling the profile of the open version. Even with the hard-top in place, the light-filled interior differs significantly compared to the Coupé, thanks to the presence of a single large roof window. Removing the hard-top brings the driver and passenger closer to nature, such that they experience the surrounding landscape in a unique way, perceiving smells and subtle changes in air temperature as the road winds up and downhill.

As for the upholstery in the Utopia Roadster, the almost endless choice of colors and materials becomes even more important, since the car’s interior is constantly exposed to the gaze of onlookers. It is from this cabin that you see the world, and it is in this cabin that the world sees you.

The style of an object is distinguished partly by the accessories that complement it, and the luggage items are one of the features that further embellish every Pagani Hypercar. For the Utopia, two matching suitcases are made with leather-covered carbon inner shells, adorned with the emblematic Pagani ellipse. These can be stowed in two special compartments situated next to the engine. They are true gems of high-quality workmanship, where meticulous care has been devoted to every detail: from the selection of the leathers, which can either be coordinated with the car’s con?guration or create a contrast to it, down to the smallest details such as the hinges, the small leather straps that muffle their noise and the feet pads incorporating the iconic four exhaust symbol. The range of accessories is further enriched by two matching garment bags, which in the Utopia are neatly positioned behind the headrests.

The Roadster underscores the high-tech performance of the Utopia

Horacio Pagani is a pioneer of advanced composite materials; for almost forty years he has been experimenting with the most innovative solutions for his products. The first creation of the Pagani Atelier, the Zonda, was one of the first road cars to use a monocoque in carbon fiber, a material at the time mainly reserved for the aerospace industry, Formula 1, and Sport Prototype endurance cars. Today, thanks to continual investment in research, Pagani Automobili has developed know-how that has culminated in the Utopia Roadster. Current advances go well beyond the use of carbon fiber alone; in fact, there are over forty formulas of composite materials within the same Hypercar. These include Carbo-Titanium HP62-G2 and Carbo-Triax HP62.

Technological sophistication has enabled the Utopia Roadster to maintain the same lightness as the Coupé, weighing in at only 1,280 kg (2,822 lb) [dry weight], an incredible figure for a large Hypercar fitted with a V12 engine. This result was achieved thanks to a monocoque chassis entirely redesigned to optimize rigidity and resistance, without resorting to the heavy reinforcements usually required when a car roof is eliminated.

Key objectives in the design of the Utopia were to achieve a low coefficient of aerodynamic resistance and significant aerodynamic downforce without resorting to protruding appendages. With this in mind, Pagani’s engineers conducted a meticulous study of air flows in the wind tunnel. Air is carefully guided and controlled through the wheel passages, channeled around the teardrop roof and along the sinuous sides. It flows around the wing mirrors, over the bonnet, and down to the elliptical trailing edge, where two movable flaps, visible and yet harmoniously incorporated into the design, help to further improve aerodynamic efficiency by adapting to different driving conditions. The internal air flows for cooling and intake have also been perfected down to the last detail, making an essential contribution to the car’s performance and stability.

From the very outset, Pagani Automobili has maintained its loyalty to the V12 engine and to its collaboration with Mercedes-AMG, initiated thanks to Juan Manuel Fangio, world champion with the German manufacturer and supporter of Horacio Pagani’s pragmatic vision. This continuity has not stood in the way of progress: the team worked intensively on the version of the Pagani V12 destined for the Utopia. It is an authentic marvel of mechanics, light and compact, built in close collaboration with AMG engineers, who are in charge of its exclusive production for the Italian Hypercar. Each engine is entirely assembled by a single craftsman, a true mechanical artist. The power output of 864 horsepower (635 kW), comparable to that of many racing engines, does not do full justice to the incredible versatility of this mechanical system: capable of turning smoothly at low revs and delivering explosive acceleration when the driver wants to experience the full power of the Pagani engine. Turbo response is immediate, thanks partly to the prodigious torque of 1,100 Nm delivered extraordinarily. No heavy batteries, no hybrid system, just the wonderful roar of a V12 engine.

In collaboration with the British specialist firm Xtrac, Pagani has designed a transmission capable of handling the torque of the twin-turbo V12, while guaranteeing smooth and agreeable functioning in all conditions. Extremely compact and positioned transversely behind the engine, the seven-speed manual gearbox is connected to a light and adjustable triple-disc clutch.

The cutting-edge technology employed in the fabrication of materials for the Utopia Roadster is not just about carbon: even the metal parts are incredibly sophisticated. The eight suspension triangles, forged in aircraft-grade aluminum alloy, are designed to guarantee both strength and lightness. The recent rebirth of Modena Design, a historic Pagani-owned company, today allows total control over every aspect of the production of components in aluminum, titanium, and special metals, from design to engineering, to manufacture with the most advanced equipment currently available, which also involves using the noble technique of milling from solid metal.

The Utopia Roadster boasts extraordinary agility and exceptional road holding during cornering, guaranteeing an unrivaled driving sensation in all conditions. The active suspension, combined with the electronic differential and dynamic control system, eliminates any tendency to understeer, while the electronic traction control ensures flawless movement despite the enormous power supply available. The Utopia Roadster delivers astonishing performance while remaining persistently intuitive. True to Pagani’s philosophy, the driver never has to struggle with the car; it is always an exhilarating, obedient, and reassuring ally.

Pirelli, an essential partner of Pagani Automobili from the prototyping and simulation phase with the aid of the most advanced AI technology, is supplying the Utopia Roadster with exclusive tires equipped with advanced sensor technology on the inside of the tread that become points of interaction between the car and the road surface. Thanks to the Pirelli Cyber™ Tyre, the tire’s sensors will send information to the vehicle’s stability control systems, including ABS, ESP, and traction control, to ensure maximum performance and the highest level of safety based on driving conditions. The Pirelli P ZERO™ Corsa and P ZERO™ Winter (standard) and the P ZERO™ Trofeo RS (optional), are fitments developed specifically for the Pagani Utopia, in size 21” at the front and 22” at the rear.

Every detail is an aesthetic and technical challenge

Inspired by the visionary genius of Leonardo da Vinci, who saw the union of Art and Science as the highest expression of human creativity, work at Pagani Automobili is tirelessly geared to ensure that design, engineering, and product manufacture are developed in an integrated process, meticulous attention being paid to every aspect of form and function. Ergonomics is studied down to the smallest detail: every control is positioned exactly where you would expect it to be, is designed to be operated comfortably, and is fashioned with taste and attention to its mechanical beauty. Even a simple switch, carefully designed in its form, its lighting, and the precision of its actuation, is as pleasant to look at as it is efficient to use. Every single element contributes to an overall sense of visual and tactile satisfaction, enhancing every gesture and making a drive in the Utopia Roadster a unique and inimitable experience.

The Utopia’s seven-speed manual gearbox is a marvel of ultra-modern design, yet retains traditional mechanics and is operated by a classical gear lever with a titanium grille. An object of sophisticated workmanship that is as enchanting to the eye as it is enjoyable to the touch. Each and every part of the clearly visible mechanism is finished with the greatest care and attention, the polished knob itself providing an ideal grip. For those who prefer lightning-fast changes, there is the AMT automated gearbox controlled via paddle shifters mounted on the steering wheel. Software strategies have further improved speed and comfort so that the driver feels as comfortable on the road as he does on the racetrack. Pagani Automobili has always been dedicated to the pursuit of timeless design, celebrating the elegance of manual control as the purest expression of mechanical art. From the time of its earliest creations, it has embraced the enduring appeal of analog technology, enhancing the beauty and functionality of knobs, dial hands, buttons, and levers. The development of sophisticated components, such as a manual gearbox capable of meeting the high expectations of Pagani’s customers, today represents an even more formidable technological challenge than in the past.

The steering wheel is the very symbol of a car; that of the Utopia is a symbol of Pagani’s savoir-faire. No one had ever designed a steering wheel quite like this. In appearance it looks almost ordinary: one immediately notices, however, the excellent grip of the thick rim, finished with leather pads. But it is in the detail that its uniqueness is revealed: a closer look shows that the rim, spokes, and hub are a single piece of lightweight metal. Starting from a 43-kilo (94,80 lb) block, a five-axis milling machine works continuously for 28 hours to achieve this extraordinary object weighing only 1.6 kg (3.53 lb), the discarded waste being reused as recycled material for other industries. An expert craftsman hand-finishes, personally polishes, and carefully inspects each steering wheel. The result is an extraordinary feat of aesthetics and engineering.

A philosophy of driving pleasure

The feeling inside the Utopia Roadster is absolutely unique, even in the very special context of high-performance cars. When climbing aboard, one may be almost intimidated by the numerous “old-fashioned” features. But in actual fact this is where the pleasure really begins. Any trepidation simply vanishes as soon as you experience the naturalness of the drive itself. You glance at the details, you admire the gear lever, a magnificent piece of mechanical artistry, but above all you appreciate how perfectly it fits into the palm of your hand, becoming familiar after the first few gear shifts. This applies to all parts, which at first sight may appear extravagant, yet are designed with a constant focus on efficiency and transparency. The Utopia does not oblige drivers to adapt their gestures, it prolongs them. Already at low speeds, during the first few kilometers, and even more so when the full potential of the Pagani V12 is unleashed, the car responds impeccably. The acceleration, punctuated by the gear changes, is pure pleasure. The gear lever communicates every movement of the mechanism, which is flexible and extremely rapid, yet clearly perceptible to those who love mechanics. In addition to the sensation of almost unlimited power, the driver’s senses, heightened by the performance, communicate with the twin-turbo V12, perceiving its every pulse. Shifting gears exactly when desired restores sensuality to the driving. Whether you let the car cruise in sixth or seventh gear at low revs or push each gear to its limit, the transmission responds immediately to the engine’s commands.

We know from the technical specifications that advanced technology translates into performance, but the precise measure of efficiency is also pleasure. The carbo-titanium monocoque frame gives the car an exceptional ratio of lightness to structural rigidity, which improves performance, efficiency and reduces emissions. But above all, it provides an outstanding driving experience. This rigidity creates a connection between the driver and the road, giving the impression that the hand on the steering wheel touches the asphalt directly, perceiving its variations in texture and grip. The lightness allows immediate reactions, and instant liveliness on ignition without having to overstrain the engine. It also translates into agility when cornering: the car turns flat, without inertia or drift, surging into the straight again with perfect precision. Even when braking, the immediate response to every foot command makes the experience of deceleration a pleasure on par with acceleration. The driver commands and the car obeys instantly, as if it understands and even shares the pleasure of playing with the road.

The analog instrumentation of the Utopia Roadster restores a way of relating to the driver that was all too quickly abandoned with the advent of digital displays, harking back to the handcrafted inspiration of haute horlogerie. The large speedometer and tachometer, which reveal some of their inner workings, offer a direct connection with the road and the engine. The simple movement of the hands is equally informative and far more intuitive than the reading of numbers. Likewise, the central cluster of four dials allows essential information such as oil pressure and temperatures to be read almost from the corner of the eye, thanks to the position of the hands. In front of the driver, a simple display enables the management of those aspects for which a screen is needed, such as infotainment, color therapy, satellite navigation, or backup camera.

The ambitions of the Utopia Roadster

One hundred and thirty examples of the Roadster will be produced, destined for customers worldwide, with a starting price of 3.1 million euros exclusive of local taxes.

A community of extraordinarily active enthusiasts follow Pagani’s creations with the keenest interest. In this sense, those customers who will actually enjoy the Utopia Roadster in real life can be seen as patrons of an art that extends far beyond their restricted community, reaching even those who dream of one day owning a Pagani Hypercar. The value of a technical and artistic creation is measured not only by the number of orders: a sculptor addresses not only his client, but also all those who will enjoy his work. The Utopia Roadster, a car sculpture in every respect, is awaited by admirers all over the world.

From the time of the very first models, an essential part of the Pagani experience has been the offer of an almost infinite number of customization possibilities, such that each customer is able to create a car that expresses his or her uniqueness. The sheer number of color and upholstery combinations available makes it impossible for two Utopia Roadsters to be identical; all customers are therefore co-creators of their own unique Hypercars. Some prefer monochrome, others multi-tone combinations. Evocations of national colors or emblems of particular collections can be combined. The possibility of leaving the carbon bare, either everywhere or only in certain places, covered or not by colored paint, forms part of the aesthetic options available and is a reflection of the Pagani philosophy. Technological aspects are not intended to be concealed; they are the artist’s brush. Every part of the car is made to be beautiful and efficient, beautiful because it is efficient. Art and technology go hand in hand, inextricably intertwined from the car’s very conception.

The Utopia Roadster will be officially unveiled during Monterey Car Week, an event that includes one of the world’s most famous Concours d’Elegance, that of Pebble Beach. Here, the most beautiful cars in history have been honored, deeply nourishing the sensibilities and erudition of aficionados, and leaving a lasting impression.

Pagani has entrusted the Utopia with the task of reconnecting with the past, of recovering the simplicity that is often sacrificed in the name of pure performance. This simplicity, however, makes it an ally when it comes to experiencing the power of the V12, encapsulated in an elegantly styled Hypercar that openly mimics the iconic forms of the past. The designer subtly drew inspiration from both automotive and non-automotive forms, such as the delicate profiling of Vespa headlights and accessories, the styling of Italian Bianchi bicycles of the 1950s, and the curves of Riva speedboats. It is the bond of deep mutual esteem and friendship between Horacio Pagani and Carlo Riva that suggested the romantic lines of the Utopia, an admiration that was born in humanity and is reflected in creativity. The Pagani Utopia Roadster is a meeting point between classicism and modernity, a novelty that continues to stand out in the increasingly crowded panorama of ultra-high-performance sports cars.
