«If we think of the Huayra Coupe as a personification of elegance and timeless lines, the Pagani Huayra Roadster was to be the rebellious sister, shapely and beautiful, but with a sharp edge for those who are careless», Horacio Pagani says.
The overall shape is smooth and immediate, where each line has a beginning and a definite end. Every last detail has been revised every contour made more defined. From the more aggressive and pronounced mouth of the car, framed by wider wheel arches, from the shape of the roll bars to the upgraded interior. Every detail considered and developed with its own unique design language, in direct symmetry with aerodynamic requirements. Unlike most modern supercars, the Huayra Roadster is almost fully exposed, with nearly every mechanical part visible, every last piece proud to be revealed.
One of the ambitious goals set at the beginning of the project was to build Roadster that would be lighter than the Coupe, improving the torsional rigidity of the frame. The Pagani engineering team further refined the development of carbo-titanium. Combined with a new form of composite material and developed for the Huayra Roadster, it is considered more advanced than materials used for Formula 1 cars. This complex word has allowed for a 52% increase in stiffness, at the same weight, thanks to the combination of the Carbo-Titanium and the Carbo-Triax HP52. The Pagani Huayra Roadster is powered by the Mercedes-AMG M158 engine. The twelve-cylinder engine, built specifically for Pagani by Mercedes-AMG, delivering power of 764 HP at 6200 RPM, with a torque of over 1000 NM already available at 2400 RPM.
