May 17, 2023 – San Cesario Sul Panaro: Pagani Automobili is proud to announce that it will be making its first appearance at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este, the most exclusive and historical classic car event in the world, from May 19th to 21st, at Lake Como.

Held for the first time in 1929, the festival has always been set in the splendid gardens of the Grand Hotel Villa d’Este and Villa Erba in Cernobbio. Broken up into various categories, in 2002 the festival introduced an award for the most stunning prototype, the type of vehicles which best represent the link between the automobile’s glorious past and its exciting future.

The second of the five Huayra Codalunga created by Pagani Grandi Complicazioni, the division dedicated to one-off and few-off vehicles, will be competing in the Concept Car category. An authentic tribute to Italian coachbuilders and race cars from the 1960s, this model was created by getting the customers involved in the entire development of the project.

Its story began in 2018 when two collectors asked Horacio Pagani and his team to create a long-tail version of the Pagani Huayra Coupé. The idea was to produce a hypercar which was as elegant as it was simple and clean in its design, a model that felt just as much at home on the road as it did on show in international competitions.

The car on display stands out for its special exterior paint job which pays tribute to Bronzo Aymara, the launch color of the Huayra Coupè, which has been redesigned with an exposed carbon fiber finish. At first look, the paint looks like normal opaque Bronzo Aymara; however, if hit by light from particular angles, the carbon fiber can be seen. Moreover, standing out on the enveloping livery of the rear hood, the word Codalunga has been painted. Everything has been made even more special by the interiors upholstered in vintage-effect heritage leather which has been paired with a fine Loro Piana fabric.

The rear engine cover, which has a footprint of more than 3.7 m2, and is 360 mm longer than the one of the Huayra Coupé, conceals a mechanical prodigy: the Pagani V12, which, on this series, is capable of developing 840 HP with 1,100 Nm of torque. Moreover, the lack of rear grilles makes space for an unobstructed view of the Codalunga’s exhaust system, which is made from titanium and weighs only 4.4 kg (9.7 lb). The special ceramic coating completes the homage to the racing cars of Le Mans and the symphony that emanates from the signature four tailpipes is a tribute to automotive passion.

May 4, 2023 – San Cesario Sul Panaro: Pagani Automobili is participating in the fifth edition of the Motor Valley Fest from May 11th to 14th in Emilia-Romagna, a region which welcomed Horacio Pagani and his idea of creating a dream car over thirty years ago.

As always, the event will take place in the heart of Modena, a UNESCO World Heritage City thanks to its artistic and architectural treasures. This evocative location fits well with the Pagani Hypercars, as they are both expressions of the Leonardesque principle of “Art and Science” on which the company’s philosophy and creations were founded.

Pagani Automobili will be participating in the event with the Utopia and Huayra Roadster BC.

The Utopia represents the third chapter in the automotive brand’s history and will be displayed at the Courtyard of Honor in Modena’s Ducal Palace, the home of the military academy. It will be the first time that the general public will be able to admire Horacio Pagani’s and his team’s creation, following its official presentation last September in Milan in two events: the World Premiere at the Teatro Lirico and the exhibition at the Museo Nazionale Scienza e Tecnologia Leonardo da Vinci.
Featuring a simple and one-of-a-kind design, the Pagani Hypercar expresses a contrasting and utopian idea which is romantically distant from the current conception of the automobile. Produced in just 99 units, the first Utopia coupé series has already been allotted to a small group of enthusiasts.

Further information on the Utopia is available at this link: https://www.pagani.com/press/world-premiere-of-the-new-pagani-utopia/

The search for beauty continues. Incessantly.

Beauty in the details, beauty in the lines, in the beating heart of cars that are born as creations and not just as designs. Beauty where you cannot see it.

“I had been working for Lamborghini, under the control of the American automobile manufacturer Chrysler, for a few years,” Maurizio Ferrari tells us, “and the Gulf War had changed everything. Almost all the company’s orders were cancelled, and like many others, I was receiving wage support in 1991. Horacio told me about his plan, about the car he had in mind, the life he wanted. I had met him a few years earlier, when he was a level-three factory worker with Lamborghini, and now there he was, right in front of me, talking to me about his visions as if they were already reality. He said that if the company laid me off after my wage support ran out, I could go work with him and help make his dream come true. The supercar manufacturers were all in trouble at that time. I still don’t know what I was thinking, back then, but that’s how it all started”.

Then, on a day like any other in 1992, Horacio Pagani showed Maurizio Ferrari a vacant piece of land.

“This is where we’ll build the new factory and make the car,” he said.

Maurizio stared at him. He didn’t know what to think. He was already working on the project Horacio had in mind, the one that was to become the Zonda. He knew how hard it was to make a dream come true. Then he looked at the empty space in front of them. He really could see the car right there before them, and whether it was because of their friendship, or because he was crazy, he believed Horacio yet again.

“If I could do it all over again, I’d come right back here”. So says Maurizio Ferrari today, happy that he believed in Horacio and that he worked with him for 32 years. This is a story within the story of Pagani Automobili.

Horacio Pagani not only dreamed up and built some of the world’s most beautiful hypercars, he made the company a creative atelier where a community of people works together, sharing their skills and ideas, addressing the great challenges of complicated mechanics, handling beauty and finding reciprocal inspiration.

A community of people whose everyday thoughts, actions and words become part of something bigger, a creative design that is unique and different every time.

“The people who work with us do it with passion and, like beauty, passion is contagious,” says Leonardo Pagani. “Anyone who climbs aboard one of our automobiles can see this in the care taken with the smallest details, the excitement of holding the steering wheel in your hands for the first time; an excitement you will feel every time you drive it. Our customers don’t  just buy an automobile, but all the palpable emotions and love that every one of us has put into doing our part. This is why many of our customers find that a single Pagani is not enough for them and come back to buy another”.

Love, emotions, excitement. This is another story within the story of Pagani.

“My brother and I had the good fortune to be involved in the company right from the start,” shares Christopher Pagani. “I was only a child, and I spent my afternoons playing and watching in the workshop, which was located right underneath my room. I saw it as a world full of fantastic things. I didn’t realize it at the time, but I was already learning what was going to be my life-long profession”.

A family that becomes an extended community, a value that is perceived and received, because, as Commercial Director Hannes Zanon says, “Family and community. This is what we are. Everyone can bring their own ideas here and have a chance to express them. Horacio listens to everyone, their inspiration and suggestions, thinks about them, compares them, and the emotions arising out of these meetings of ideas almost always become projects.”

“Horacio has certain intuitions; he’s inspired by a detail that strikes him that often we don’t even notice,” comments designer Alberto Piccolo (Designer – Head of Interiors). “But he falls in love with the idea, studies it, involves us in his creative exploration and establishes an affinity with us that is above all, emotional. The Pagani style is the product of great cultural ferment, but it also creates a sense of belonging, of awareness. I know that this is not just a job for me. I’m creating something, and this is a priceless sensation.”

Pagani Automobili was officially established in 1998, but its story actually began well before this.It began in a little room in Casilda, in the pampas of Argentina, where a 10-year-old boy dreamed of his future, carving balsa wood to make little model cars. It began with the curiosity of that little boy, an avid reader who came to be fascinated with the way Leonardo da Vinci combined Art with Science. This fascination was to stay with him, becoming the inspiration for his life and work.

“We were not much more than children: he was 15 and I was 14. We played tennis at the same club. He was good at it, better than me, and we were friends. We were true friends, even back then. I saw the birth of Horacio’s dream. He talked about it all the time. He showed me his drawings, his model cars, his magazines. He was fascinated by Gran Turismo cars, the ones that ran the 24 Hours of Le Mans. That was all he thought about, and not only did he say he would do it, but that he would do it in Modena, the land of motors. A lot of people laughed at him, but I didn’t. Each day I watched as he took a step closer to making his dream come true. I always  believed in him,” said fondly Horacio’s life-long friend Hugo Racca.

A creative atelier where hands and thoughts are inseparable; where Art and Science meld together, striving to achieve a unique beauty that is reflected in people and the way they work.

“I joined Pagani in 2011, a few months after I graduated. I thought I knew it all, but in actual fact I started learning right away. This is where I realized that a designer must not only master lines, but have the materials that will give them their function and make them tactile,” Designer and Project Leader Mattia Gessi reports. “Combining design with materials is like combining Art with Science; essential for addressing beauty. When we started working on Utopia, we allowed this principle to guide us, and now, after spending so many years talking about Utopia and the idea of Utopia  as if it were a person, every time I go down to the production area and see a car, I am as amazed as a little child. When I started working in Pagani I never imagined my work could be so amazing”.

At Pagani, beauty meets and resolves the great complications of mechanics, style becomes an aesthetic philosophy, and the inspirations of people who want a Pagani automobile become unique creative processes.

“Ten years have gone by, and I still remember my first conversation with Horacio as if it were yesterday. He talked about himself, his story, what he had done and what he wanted to do. One thing was particularly easy to understand: his passion for creating, for inventing,“ says Lorenzo Kerkoc, Special Projects Manager. “A contagious passion I couldn’t do without today, myself. Every special project I oversee responds to the desires of a single customer, which I have to interpret and make concrete. The great complication lies in finding the perfect balance between their wishes, practicality and beauty.”

For Pagani, beauty is the performance of an automobile, safety and the enjoyment of driving, and it’s all the result of ongoing research and a natural propensity for innovation.

“I work on the mechanical part, designing frames and suspensions. Many people might think of this as an anonymous sort of job, but in 25 years working in mechanical design with Pagani, I’ve experimented with materials and procedures, and with human relationships, both with the the team as well as Horacio himself,” reports Senior Mechanical Designer Germano Franzese. “I’ve learned to listen to people and to pay attention to little details that nobody may ever actually see. Hidden details testifying to our philosophy of beauty.”

Along with beauty, innovation is another great source of inspiration, experienced every day in Pagani. The future comes here first, thanks to research into composite materials, technologies allowing the company to work with alloys and aluminum making hypercar components machined from a solid block and advanced electronics that are the sensible mind allowing people to drive with their hearts.

Francesco Perini, Head of Pagani’s Technical Department, is surrounded by innovation, but what really interests him is philosophy. “I saw a path, a way of approaching things in which I could find myself comfortable with. When someone new comes to work with us, above all, I tell them about all our values , and how they reverberate throughout the automobiles and the intellectual process we conduct every day. Here, the designer embraces a philosophy, not just a method. Designers and engineers don’t just work behind a screen: they need to understand the results of their work with their hands, handling it, realizing what its effect will be on the person who assembles it and the one who uses it. Now, more than ever, Art and Science need to restore the value of hand craftsmanship, lost for too long.”

Mary Malandrino has been working with the company since 2003 and has been Human Resources Manager for ten years, so she knows how much of a difference people can make. “Know-how is essential, but when I have a job candidate in front of me, I also try to glimpse what kind of a person they might be. Sensibility, passion, the ability to feel empathy with your surroundings are equally essential qualities for living with us. We choose people who, with their whole complex universe of skills, needs and sensibilities, are the key to what we do. However, we also need to be chosen, and this is fundamental. Only in this way can we feel like an important part of a reality in which everyone is important for what they do, and how they do it. 

I was very young when I joined Pagani, but I already had work experience, and wasn’t looking for just any job. I was looking for a place where I would feel fulfilled, and realize my potential. As soon as I joined the company, I felt that I was in a different world. I felt welcome, as if I was part of a family. I haven’t changed my mind over the past 20 years working with Pagani”.

For Pagani, customers are first and foremost people.

• THE ICE St. Moritz is the first event of 2023, the year that marks the 25th anniversary of the company based in San Cesario sul Panaro

• In the sophisticated atmosphere of the Swiss Alps, Pagani Officina  will showcase  two iconic hypercars, a Zonda C12 Chassis 001 and a Zonda F coupè, one of 25 in the world

San Cesario sul Panaro, February 16, 2023 – The first event of 2023 brings Pagani hypercar enthusiasts to St. Moritz, in the heart of the Engadine, where THE ICE takes place on 24 and 25 February. This special Concours of Elegance sees the most beautiful cars in the world ready to show themselves to an audience of connoisseurs and face the surface of the frozen lake.
This year marks an important moment for Pagani Automobili: it’s the first of a long series of events that will define 2023, the 25-year anniversary of the company, which was founded in 1998.

PAGANI OFFICINA
The event in St. Moritz is an excellent showcase to unveil Pagani Officina to a select public. It’s a special series of programmes which has been created to ensure that every car purchased can always be maintained in the best possible condition and can be refurbished and customised, even several years after purchase, to suit the customer’s preferences and wishes. It features three special programs designed to suit any requirements: Puro, Rinascimento, and Unico. 

Puro is the Certification of Authenticity and Warranty Extension programme, which preserves and protects the essence of the vehicle through the work of highly specialised and certified mechanics. With over 400 checks, it ensures an in-depth analysis of the condition and authenticity of the vehicle components and, on completion of the work, the client receives a “Puro Book” produced at the Pagani headquarters: a sort of diary that documents the vehicle’s history, details the checks run on the car and holds the authenticity certificate signed by Horacio Pagani. A prestigious leather-bound volume which will stay with the car over its lifetime, offering an authentication and increasing its value. 

• The unreleased photos of the Pagani Utopia taken at the Museum of Science and Technology in Milan show off the new Pagani Calendar
• A tribute to both the new Hypercar that was launched last September and the company’s first 25 years
• Together, included with the wall calendar, will be the brochure for the Pagani Utopia with exclusive photos of Leonardo da Vinci’s drawings

San Cesario sul Panaro, 1 December 2022 – 2023 will be the year of the Utopia, and the year of a remarkable milestone: the company founded by Horacio Pagani in 1998 is preparing to celebrate its quarter century. It’s an important date that, as such, should be celebrated with an equally exclusive calendar.

The star of this year’s story will be six images of the new Pagani Utopia, immortalized in the striking setting of the Sala del Cenacolo inside the Museum of Science and Technology in Milan, where the new hypercar was presented last September, providing the inspiration for the temporary exhibition entitled “The Shape of Air. From Leonardo to Pagani Utopia”.

Once again collaborating on an innovative line of apparel

22 October 2022 – After a successful first capsule collection celebrating the Pagani Zonda’s 20th anniversary, BAPE® returns with a new collaboration to bring street style to the heart of the Hypercars made by the Atelier in San Cesario sul Panaro. The renewed joint effort with BAPE® has led to the creation of a limited-edition capsule collection for the Pagani Huayra Roadster BC. BAPE®’s colour palette and style have been used at the request of a client to “dress” a bespoke version of the model. 

The Huayra Roadster BC Capsule Collection by BAPE®  

The new capsule collection includes a limited range of selected high-quality items with a powerful personality, including a zipper jacket, polo shirt, t-shirt, sneakers, a cap and an aluminium keyring. Product will be sold in BAPE STORE®, at the Pagani Atelier, on Paganistore.com and on BAPE.COM; 

BAPE®’s signature camo print is featured on the lining of the jacket, the sleeves of the polo and t-shirt, the peak of the cap and on the uppers of the sneakers; the epitome of an exclusive and recognisable style, just like the design of Pagani’s Hypercars. The final touch for the collection is a special patch showing the two brands together. 

Unique BAPE® features for the Huayra Roadster BC 

This special Huayra Roadster BC utilizes the BAPE® ABC CAMO pattern in shades of blue inside the car on the seats and the roof. Additionally a set of coordinated luggage and sports clothes including a tracksuit and gloves, were developed with the camo pattern. For the launch of the capsule collection, the body of this special Huayra Roadster BC was wrapped with the camo pattern, further linking the car to the line of apparel. The BAPE® name also appears on the dedication plate of the Hypercar as the mark of a continuing collaboration. 

BAPE x Pagani unveiling event at BAPE Store® London

Horacio Pagani, founder of “Pagani Automobili”, was present at the event at BAPE STORE® LONDON to unveil the new collection. Making the event even more special, the Huayra Roadster BC featuring BAPE® camo, was on hand and garnered interest not just from those attending, but also from audiences around the world. The event, celebrating efforts from both brands to innovate their respective categories, was attended by some of the biggest names from UK media, including internationally renowned DJ Kenny Allstar, Leo Mandella, the teenage fashion aficionado, as well as presenter Craig Mitch, the face of ‘Sneaker Shopping.’

• On 24 and 25 September at Chantilly 2022, Pagani Officina will introduce three special programmes for our customers: Puro, Rinascimento, and Unico
• Puro is the certification program that guarantees authenticity and enhances the value of Pagani cars over time
• Rinascimento is dedicated to preserving cars, protecting and restoring them to their original glory, as if they had just

San Cesario sul Panaro, 22 September 2022 – After a two-year break due to the pandemic, on 24 and 25 September France will once again be welcoming visitors to the “Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille”, a concours d’élegance and a pop-up museum featuring the finest cars in the world, both modern and vintage.

Pagani Automobili has chosen this prestigious international event to unveil Pagani Officina to the public, a special division of the company which has been created to ensure that every car purchased can always be maintained in the best possible condition and can be refreshed and customised, even several years after purchase, to suit the customer’s preferences and wishes.

Pagani Officina features three special programs designed to suit any requirements: Puro, Rinascimento, and Unico.

Pagani Puro 

“Puro” is a word which is synonymous with integrity, authenticity, and perfection. A word which expresses the very essence of Pagani vehicles. This is why it was chosen as the name for the Certification of Authenticity and Warranty Extension programme, which preserves and protects the essence of the vehicle through the work of highly specialized and certified mechanics. The certification, which involves more than 400 checks, provides an in-depth analysis of the vehicle’s condition and the authenticity of its components; the warranty extension offers complete protection to safeguard the car’s value, with ongoing scheduled maintenance offering the customer the luxury of being able to continue to drive a vehicle in perfect condition.

This is available for every Pagani car, and can be carried out at the headquarter, in San Cesario Sul Panaro, and in at Official Dealer sites, where only Pagani-certified mechanics work: a team of highly experienced and skilled professionals working in close contact with the head of the Puro programme, sharing the result of analysis and data. On the completion of the work, the client will receive the “Puro Book” produced at the Pagani headquarters: like a diary documenting the vehicle’s history. It details the checks run on the car and contains the certificate of authenticity signed by Horacio Pagani. A prestigious leather-bound volume which will stay with the car over its lifetime, offering the authentication and increasing its value.

The embodiment of the Puro programme in Chantilly will be the Zonda Roadster F, the “clubsport” par excellence, the heir to the coupé version.

• World premiere of Pagani’s new Hypercar in the splendid setting of the Museum’s Sala del Cenacolo 
• Six original drawings by Leonardo da Vinci, loaned on an exceptional basis by the Biblioteca Ambrosiana, provide the backdrop for the Pagani Utopia
• For the unveiling, a special exhibition “The shape of air: from Leonardo to Pagani Utopia” scientifically curated by Pietro C. Marani, author of numerous publications on the artist. A dual exploration of the Italian polymath’s studies on air and the genesis of the Pagani Utopia
• A common element: the close connection between Art and Science, the Leonardian principle that inspires the philosophy of Horacio Pagani, Pagani Automobili Founder & Chief Designer

Milan, 13 September 2022 – Italy’s National Science & Technology Museum in central Milan is the venue for the official debut of the new Pagani Hypercar, the vehicle that will write the third chapter in the brand’s history, with the title: Pagani Utopia. In the splendid setting of the Sala del Cenacolo refectory hall, surrounded by original drawings by Leonardo da Vinci, the Modena-based atelier’s latest creation designed by Horacio Pagani embodies a visionary utopian idea of motoring, an unconventional concept romantically detached from the contemporary meaning of automobile. And it does so in the purest Pagani spirit, where the guiding element underpinning the company’s cars has always been Leonardo’s principle of Art and Science.

No better location could have been chosen to present the new arrival: Milan, the cosmopolitan city that was home to the artist, and the Museum that houses the Leonardo Galleries, the world’s largest permanent exhibition on Leonardo da Vinci – engineer, humanist and scholar of nature.

“At the entrance to the Museum, the visitor is welcomed by a phrase with a profound significance: Scienza è Cultura – Science is Culture. The expression represents the very essence of the Museum as a place dedicated to Leonardo da Vinci and, like the artist himself, condenses the interrelations between different but complementary branches of knowledge, which, together, help us understand reality. This dialogue between art, science and technology is a distinguishing feature of the Museum’s identity. Furthermore, the discovery and invention that never cease to surprise us are combined with the fundamental ability to design and build, thus giving concrete value to human ingenuity,” says Fiorenzo Galli, General Manager of the National Science & Technology Museum.

Enhancing the ties between the design of Pagani Hypercars and Leonardo da Vinci is an exceptional loan from the Biblioteca Ambrosiana, which, for the presentation of the new car, has granted permission for six original drawings of Leonardo’s studies on air, to leave its vaults on a temporary basis for the exhibition “The shape of air: from Leonardo to Pagani Utopia”. 

Curated by Pagani Automobili and Pietro C. Marani, a leading expert on Leonardo da Vinci and author of numerous books about the Tuscan artist, the exhibition offers visitors the opportunity for dual exploration. On one hand, the astonishing genius of a man with the ability – six centuries ago – to represent even the invisible, displayed in a collection of leaves from the Codex Atlanticus on the study of air and its applications; on the other, the thinking that led designer Horacio Pagani and his team to conceive the Utopia project.  A binary vision of form and function.

“The presentation of our new car in the extraordinary setting of the National Science & Technology Museum in Milan has a special significance,” says Horacio Pagani. “Leonardo was very creative here in Milan, where he enjoyed a wonderful period. He has been a huge influence in my life since I was a boy, he is the inspiration for the fundamental concepts of Art and Science that guide our work. So to be in the museum that bears his name and to have his original drawings next to our car is a truly indescribable emotion for me.”

Visitors will be able to trace the genesis of the Pagani Utopia project on a series of special panels: from the sources of inspiration to the first sketches of the car, the colour palette and the materials used, condensed in a three-dimensional moodboard. The creative route reaches its culmination in the Sala del Cenacolo for a close-up look at the new Pagani Hypercar. From the outside, a body with soft, elegant lines built in hi-tech composite materials; inside, the powerful heart of the Pagani V12 engine.

The city of Milan is hosting the world premiere of a brand new Hypercar, the Pagani Utopia. 

A presentation accompanied by music and art.

The principle of Art and Science has always underpinned Pagani Automobili’s creations and is the thread linking designer Horacio Pagani to Leonardo da Vinci. It lies at the heart of the temporary exhibition opening tomorrow at which the new Hypercar will be displayed together with six original drawings by the eclectic artist and unparalleled genius.

• The Pagani Automobili founder received the award in the “Design for mobility” category
• The winning Huayra Roadster BC project was chosen from 19 entrants

San Cesario Sul Panaro, 20 June 2022 – Horacio Pagani, Founder & Chief Designer of Pagani Automobili, has won the XXVII Compasso d’Oro award of the ADI – Associazione per il Disegno Industriale – in the “Design for mobility” category. The prize, which was given to the designer for the Huayra Roadster BC project and is the San Cesario-based atelier’s first Compasso d’Oro, was assigned by an international jury, who selected the 20 best objects in the various categories.

Established in 1954, the ADI Premio Compasso d’Oro — Golden Compass Award — is the world’s oldest and most distinguished design award, based on an idea by Gio Ponti to highlight the value and quality of products designed in Italy.

The award presentation ceremony was held on 20 June at the ADI Design Museum in Milan which will host an exhibition of all the products entered for the 2022 award, from 21 June to 11 September. As a result, the Huayra Roadster BC is now part of the ADI Compasso d’Oro Collection.

San Cesario Sul Panaro, 20 June 2022 – From 23 to 26 June, Pagani Automobili returns to the Goodwood Festival of Speed, one of the most famous and eagerly-awaited events celebrating motorsport and car culture, held in West Sussex and attracting thousands of fans who come to see an array of two- and four-wheeled vehicles ready to take on the historic hill climb.

This year, Pagani Automobili has chosen the English countryside as the venue for the official public unveiling of the Huayra Codalunga, the new union of design and technology created in the Atelier in San Cesario Sul Panaro: one of the five models in this extremely limited series will be on display in the Supercar Paddock.

A bespoke project requested by a Pagani customer and created in partnership with the Pagani Grandi Complicazioni (PGC) special projects division, where there are almost infinite opportunities to design and customise a car. Each hypercar is the culmination of a long and detailed journey, working with the client to interpret their preferences and desires. The collective ambition and effort seek to create a work of art for the client that is befitting of the Pagani name. A cross-functional team has supported the project meticulously from creation through design and development, to help us realize our clients’ vision.

The simple linear style of the Huayra Coupé was used as the starting point, making it longer and smoother, as if it had been caressed and molded by the wind, to design lines that were even more elegant than the Coupé. We drew inspiration from the long tails of the 1960s cars that raced at Le Mans, which had very clean lines. The Huayra Codalunga comprises very few essential elements.
