Since its inception in 2011, the Pagani Huayra has consistently pushed the boundaries of automotive engineering, standing as a pinnacle of hypercar performance and design. With each iteration, Pagani has elevated the Huayra's capabilities, culminating in the unveiling of the latest marvel – the Pagani Huayra Evo R. Boasting unparalleled power and aerodynamic enhancements, the Evo R is poised to redefine the hypercar landscape.
Collaborating with the esteemed Affalterbach-based race outfit HWA AG, Pagani embarked on a mission to extract maximum performance from their flagship hypercar. The result? A masterpiece weighing in at a mere 2,337lbs (1060 kg), crafted around a cutting-edge Carbo-Titanium HP62 G2 and Carbo-Triax HP62 monocoque chassis.
Underpinning the Evo R's phenomenal performance is the revamped V12-R Evo engine, a collaborative effort between Pagani and HWA. With 900hp and 568ft-lbs (770 Nm) of torque transmitted to the rear wheels, this naturally aspirated 6.0-liter powerhouse propels the Huayra to a blistering top speed of 218mph, while revving to an astounding 9,200 rpm. Complementing the engine is a six-speed sequential gearbox, equipped with a three-sintered metal disc racing clutch for lightning-fast gear changes.
Enhancing the Evo R's agility and stability is an updated forged aluminum alloy independent double wishbone suspension, featuring electronically controlled shock absorbers. This setup delivers improved precision and responsiveness, ensuring unparalleled handling characteristics.
Aesthetically, the Evo R commands attention with its redesigned aerodynamic kit, increasing downforce by a staggering 45%. Drawing inspiration from legendary racing cars, the Evo R's custom livery pays homage to both IndyCar and Le Mans heritage, setting it apart as a true track-ready machine.
In the pursuit of perfection, Pagani equipped the Evo R with a state-of-the-art Brembo CCM-R carbon-ceramic braking system. Paired with six-pot calipers and bespoke racing pads, this braking setup provides unmatched stopping power, instilling confidence even at the highest speeds. Complementing the braking system are forged monolithic aluminum alloy wheels, wrapped in custom-developed Pirelli P ZeroTM Slick tires, ensuring optimal grip and traction in every corner.
The Pagani Huayra Evo R represents the zenith of hypercar engineering, embodying a harmonious blend of power, performance, and precision. With its unrivaled capabilities and striking aesthetics, the Evo R reaffirms Pagani's position as a trailblazer in the world of automotive excellence. For enthusiasts and collectors alike, the Evo R stands as a testament to the relentless pursuit of automotive perfection.
