  • 2012 Geneva Motor Show: Pagani Huayra Carbon Edition

    Pagani has exhibited the special Huayra Carbon Edition at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. The bespoke model boats naked carbon fiber body. Furthermore, the interior is also from naked carbon fiber.

    It is powered by a 6.0 liter bi-turbo V12 with 710PS (522 kW) and 1000Nm (737 lb-ft) of torque. The engine is mated to an XTRAC 7-speed sequential transmission. The overall weight of the original Huayra is 1 350 kg (2 975 lb), so probably few kilograms will be cut thanks to using carbon fiber in the interior. 0-100 km/h in 3.3 seconds and a top speed of 370 km/h (230 mph).

    Pagani Huayra is designed for maximum aerodynamic efficiency. It features four adjustable flaps, which can operate independently to improve downforce as needed. The sleek carbon fiber body incorporates gullwing doors and plenty of openings to for cooling the engine.

    The price for regular Huayra starts at €1 000 000, so we couldn’t imagine how much will cost this special edition.
