About this subject

The Pagani Huayra BC is an even more extreme version of the already legendary Huayra, launched in 2016 at the Geneva Motor Show. Unlike the base model, the BC was developed with a focus on reduced weight and enhanced aerodynamics. The name honors Benny Caiola, one of Pagani's earliest and most important clients, who passed away in 2013. Only 20 units were produced, all sold before the official launch, making the car a highly coveted collector's item.

The heart of the Huayra BC is the same Mercedes-AMG 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12 engine, but with power boosted to 800 horsepower and torque of 1,100 Nm. The transmission remains the 7-speed automated manual but with specific calibration to reduce shift times. Pagani extensively used carbon fiber, titanium, and magnesium to keep weight at just 1,218 kg, nearly 130 kg less than the standard Huayra. The BC design incorporates new air intakes, a larger rear diffuser, and a fixed rear wing, generating 50% more downforce.

The top speed exceeds 370 km/h, with 0-100 km/h acceleration in under 3 seconds. The BC also brought improvements to suspension, carbon-ceramic brakes, and an Inconel exhaust system. Each unit was customized by the owner through the Pagani Special Projects program, with hand-stitched leather and Alcantara interiors. The car has become a symbol of exclusivity and handcrafted engineering, regularly appearing at hypercar events worldwide, including in Brazil, where a few examples are displayed at collector gatherings.
