This is the Huayra Codalunga Speedster: an open-air interpretation of the coupé version that won the Design Award at the 2023 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este. Created by the Pagani Grandi Complicazioni division, the project was sketched by Horacio Pagani as a tribute to clients seeking the perfect balance between elegant forms and powerful performance. Only ten examples will be built, fully homologated for road use worldwide, with deliveries scheduled to begin in 2026.“Every Pagani is born to bring into form the unique vision each person has of a Hypercar. For some, it must be extreme, bold, and able to captivate at first glance; for others, it embodies elegance, restraint, and harmony. From these different interpretations arise studies, research, and solutions that lead to strikingly distinct results, yet always recognizable by the Pagani signature: the purity of the lines, the absolute attention to every detail, and the balance between aesthetics and function. The Huayra Codalunga Speedster is a tribute to those who imagine their sports car as an icon of lightness and momentum, shaped by essential lines that transcend time with ease.” (Horacio Pagani, Founder & Chief Designer, Pagani Automobili) “In the 1950s and ’60s, racing cars could merge performance and beauty in an almost poetic balance. They had to be fast, but also light, sleek, and designed with meticulous attention to detail. Romantic lines, timeless. Then something changed. Efficiency started to overshadow elegance. With the Huayra Codalunga Speedster, we wanted to go back there. To that era of refined speed. We removed aerodynamic appendages and side air intakes. We pursued clean, tapered forms designed to cut through the air quietly, without unnecessary noise. A different kind of Pagani, built around an idea of visual and formal lightness.” (Lorenzo Kerkoc, Head of Grandi Complicazioni) The Huayra Codalunga Speedster inherits the stylistic codes of the coupé but reinterprets them decisively. It immediately stands out from any other open-top Pagani: even more streamlined, even purer. Starting with its structure, featuring an entirely new monocoque. The visual journey begins at the front. The headlights are embedded into the bodywork like light engravings. The bumper with integrated splitter channels air with millimetric precision. The lower, softer windshield flows into the car’s profile, making it slimmer and more harmonious. The side windows, inspired by post-war racing prototypes, have a lower shape and a gently rounded rear edge. This choice accentuates the tapered lines and fully embodies the speedster philosophy, conveying a sense of lightness and forward motion. The rear window extends this rhythm toward the panoramic hard top — a completely new element that, when mounted, creates a continuous line from the windshield to the tail. Viewed from above, the roof evokes the perfect shape of a drop, emphasized by the side pillars. The transparent section, made of polycarbonate, reduces weight without compromising rigidity. Along the sides, every line guides the eye. The doors, with traditional opening, are a coherent choice in keeping with the philosophy of essentiality. The aerodynamic blade is integrated. The external sills are sculpted in continuity with the doors and rear hood. No visible openings: air is channeled through hidden naca ducts in the flat underbody. Between the roof and the tail, the roll bar takes shape. It’s not just a safety arch — it’s a visual statement. It echoes the body color and carries it into the cabin, creating a cascading effect through the central tunnel, gear lever, and dashboard. A chromatic thread that connects exterior and interior, technique and poetry. The rear hood further accentuates the car’s streamlined tail. The bumper integrates a diffuser and two aerodynamic fins. The taillights appear suspended, as if floating in the air: pure light, pure lightness. The new six-outlet exhaust system, with lower titanium pipes and upper ceramic-coated outlets, completes the technical and aesthetic signature. Every line of the Huayra Codalunga Speedster is born from a desire to optimize airflow. CFD simulations refined the curvature of the wheel arches and the fluidity of the hood, ensuring a balanced distribution of aerodynamic load between the axles. The result? Less drag, better performance. Page 1 of 2 Next >> |
