Pagani to debut new Huayra BC at the Geneva Motor Show

The new Pagani Huarya BC is the most technologically advanced Huayra Coupe yet, shaving weight and adding power to become the most extreme hypercar yet. The name 'BC' represents the initials of Benny Caiola, a person who has greatly inspired Horacio Pagani over the years. He was also the first customer to buy a Pagani Automobile. 

Conceived primarily as a road going car that will provide maximum exhilaration and performance during track days and special events, the Huayra BC has been completely redesigned and, except for the roof, does not share a single body panel with the Huayra Coupe. Underpinning the design of the car was the aim to maximise aerodynamic efficiency, incorporating active aerodynamics. 

The Huayra BC is powered by a V12 Bi-Turbo engine developed by Mercedes-AMG exclusively for Pagani, unleashing over 750bhp and 1,000Nm of torque. The seven-speed Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) has been developed from scratch and represents a new benchmark in this transmission technology.

Developed using technologies derived from race cars, the AMT offer unmatched efficiency in the transfer of power through the drivetrain, and represents a significant step in introducing this pinnacle of drivetrain technology to a road car platform. The bespoke suspension system is also the lightest and mose effective ever applied on a road going high-performance vehicle, 25 percent lighter compared to the Huayra Coupe. Braking power is provided by a dedicated Brembo carbon ceramic braking system. 

All the weight saving developments and redesigned aerodynamics mean that the Huayra BC weighs in at a paltry 1,218kg (132kg less than the Huayra Coupe). Combined with its immense power, the hardcore hypercar will likely post some immense performance figures, which the company has yet to reveal. 

The Pagani Huayra BC will make its debut at the upcoming Geneva International Motor Show.
