The Pagani Utopia is a mid-engine sports car produced by the Italian sports car manufacturer Pagani. It was developed under the 'C10' codename and presented on 12 September 2022 at the Teatro Lirico in Milan.[5] It is a third car model by Pagani, superceding Pagani Huayra, with more power and a manual gearbox option.[6]
Development[edit]
Pagani Utopia was developed over the period of over six years and utilised eight complete prototypes. Three of those prototypes were dedicated to engine testing that lasted about two years. A total of twelve scale models were made: ten at 1:5 scale and two 1:1 scale models.[3][7]
Specifications[edit]
The Utopia's forged aluminium double wishbone suspension was based on experience gathered throughout the track-only Huayra R's development. The M158 twin-turbocharged V12 engine, designed and built by Mercedes-AMG, will now develop 864 PS (635 kW; 852 hp) at 6000 rpm and 1,100 N⋅m (811 lb⋅ft) of torque available between 2800 and 5900 rpm. The engine weighs 262 kg (578 lb) dry. Pagani partnered with Xtrac to develop a 7-speed gearbox that will be mounted transversally and is available as pure manual or an automated manual and coupled with an electro-mechanical differential by a triple plate clutch.[3][7]
Production[edit]
A total of 99 examples of the closed coupé model are planned with possible open and track variants.[8] All 99 coupés are already assigned to the customers.[3] The first car was delivered in October 2023.[9]
