Huayra Epitome
UNIQUE, LITERALLY
Pagani Automobili is delighted to present the new Huayra Epitome, a unique piece of work from the Grandi Complicazioni division. It is an extraordinary demonstration of Pagani’s commitment to taking Hypercars to new levels of prestige, innovation, and customization. This one-off represents the pinnacle of Pagani’s current technology available for road-legal cars, in a bespoke vehicle tailored down to the smallest detail.
Engine
The beating heart of the new Huayra Epitome is the Pagani V12 engine, capable of delivering 864 HP (635 kW) at 6,000 rpm at 18°C (64°F), with a torque of 1,100 Nm. Built by AMG according to Pagani specifications, this 5,980 cc twin turbocharger engine features a distribution system that extends the limiter to 6,700 rpm, offering an exhilarating and dynamic performance. To date, the Epitome is the first and only Huayra equipped with a manual transmission, for a pure mechanical driving experience. Thanks to an electronically controlled differential and a racing-style tri-pod driveshaft, the Pagani by Xtrac seven-speed transverse gearbox allows all the power and exceptional responsiveness of the engine to be transferred to the road. The flywheel-clutch unit consists of the latest triple-disc clutch for better torque transmission, with an electronically managed differential and a racing-derived tripod joint system ensuring greater engine responsiveness.
Technological research also focused on the suspension, with geometry that reduces dive in acceleration, pitch in braking, and roll in corners. This allows the driver to tackle corners by braking at the last moment, improving vehicle control and safety. Pagani Automobili aims to emphasize driving comfort as one of the most important pursuits in the study and evolution of all its cars, including track cars. Thanks to the new active suspension system of the Huayra Epitome, a “super soft” button is located in the cabin on the central tunnel, to be activated when driving on rough roads for extra comfort. Above 150 km/h (93 mph), the shock absorber setting returns to its normal condition, depending on the driving mode selected.
Aerodynamics
The lightweight six-way titanium exhaust system creates a sound symphony that accompanies every acceleration, becoming even more captivating when the four-exhaust button located on the central tunnel is pressed. The two additional round-section direct outlets are designed to exploit the blown diffuser principle and generate additional downforce. The forged aluminum alloy monolithic wheels of the Huayra Epitome represent the pinnacle of Pagani’s technical knowledge to achieve optimal performance and safety. Designed with an exclusive style inspired by the Imola Coupé from the client’s private collection, they feature seven spokes at the front and nine spokes at the rear, with a larger front size than the Huayra Coupé, maintaining the iconic style of the Roadster but with a focus on lightness for track use. Paired with Pirelli P Zero™ Trofeo R tires, they ensure extraordinary grip, completing the performance package of this unique car.
