A 6.0-litre twin-turbo V12, 851hp and a €2.15m price tag (before tax). This is the new Pagani Utopia.
Even those who regard seven-figure hypercars as pointless whimsy might fight it hard to maintain cynicism levels this time. The Pagani Utopia is one of those cars that is as much art as it is automotive, a stunning piece of design that will doubtless also be spectacular to drive. And if €2.
While it might seem a stretch to describe a twin-turbocharged AMG-produced 6.0-litre V12 as being a simple powerplant, it is much less complex than one of the hybrid systems increasingly common in this bit of the market. The engine revs higher than the V12 in the Huayra BC, and now makes peaks of 851hp and 809lb-ft, with all that fury being directed to the rear wheels.
The design has plenty of familiar Pagani elements, from the quad projector headlights to the two-by-two bundle of four exhaust tailpipes at the rear. But much about it is new as well, with the company saying the long teardrop shape is the result of huge amounts of wind tunnel testing. But while the surfaces have been carefully considered to sculpt and manage airflow, the Utopia remains without anything as vulgar as winglets or an elevated rear spoiler.
