Pagani Huayra Imola

Pagani Huayra Imola Combines Extreme Aero With 827 Horsepower

It's effectively the most powerful Pagani ever.

Update: This story has been updated with official images, detail, and video of the new Pagani Huayra Imola. The supercar will debut next month at the Geneva Motor Show. Price? €5 million ($5.41M).

Quietly announced back in September 2019 when the first car was delivered to its rightful owner, Imola follows a plethora of several editions launched by Pagani for its Huayra hyper car. Named after the famous Autodromo International Enzo e Dino Ferrari track located in Imola, the hardcore machine represents an ultra-rare variant limited to just five cars. As with most high-end cars built in a small series, all of them have already been sold.

Technical specifications have been shrouded in mystery, but Pagani has now released some juicy details to go along with these official images showing one of the remaining four cars. The twin-turbo 6.0-liter V12 engine developed by Mercedes-AMG specifically for Pagani now pumps out an astounding 827 horsepower and 811 pound-feet (1,100 Newton-meters) of torque, routed through a seven-speed automatic gearbox. That makes it 36 hp and 50 Nm (37 lb-ft) more powerful than the configuration used for the Huayra BC Roadster.

Aside from featuring an uprated engine from Affalterbach, the Huayra Imola also benefits from revised bodywork with even crazier aero. Notice the gargantuan wing at the back where the diffuser looks even more aggressive than the one installed in the "regular" Huayra BC. The coupe’s side profile has been revised as well since we’re noticing more air intakes than before, not to mention the roof scoop harkening back to the days of the Zonda. All told, the Huayra Imola tips the scales at just 2,747 pounds (1,246 kilograms). 

There’s no word about how much it costs, but considering the Huayra BC was priced at $2.5 million when it came out in 2016, you can imagine this one is way more expensive. We won’t be too surprised if it costs more than the $3.5-million Huayra Roadster BC since it’s much more exclusive – Pagani made 40 roadsters – and comes with a healthy power boost. With all five being sold, it probably doesn’t even matter anyway.
