Pagani Huayra Roadster: finally unveiled!

The Italian brand has revealed the definitive look of the Pagani Huayra convertible, which will be presented next March at the Geneva Motor Show.

This is the look of the new Pagani Huayra Roadster. The convertible supercar has finally been unveiled ahead of its official presentation at the Geneva Motor Show next March. The Italian brand has released the definitive image of this exotic model in an eye-catching blue carbon fibre finish.

Pagani has developed two types of roof for the Huayra convertible. The first option is a hard carbon fibre roof that incorporates a glass panel in its central area, giving it an appearance similar to that of a coupé. The second alternative is a fabric and carbon fibre roof that can be neatly stored inside the vehicle when not in use.

The Pagani Huayra Roadster offers a weight reduction of 80 kg over the coupé version, which is unprecedented according to the laws of physics; the structural reinforcements required in convertible variants usually increase their weight compared with their coupé equivalents. This model has also seen its torsional rigidity increased through the use of new composite materials. Pagani has also introduced changes to the Huayra Roadster’s suspension with a new lightweight aluminium alloy called HiForg, which reduces weight by 25 per cent compared with the coupé.

The Italian supercar uses an improved version of the 6.0-litre Mercedes-AMG V12 engine that produces 754 CV of power at 6,200 rpm. This powertrain delivers more than 1,000 Nm of torque and is paired with a seven-speed automated manual gearbox. The Huayra Roadster’s transmission was designed and manufactured by Xtrac, a company specialising in gearboxes that is also responsible for that component in the Huayra BC.

Only 100 units of the Pagani Huayra convertible will be produced, and its price will be 2.28 million euros.
