The Pagani Huayra BC is an even more extreme version of the Italian hypercar, focused on track performance and lightweight construction.

About this subject

The Pagani Huayra BC is a high-performance variant of the already exceptional Pagani Huayra, unveiled at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show. The BC initials honor Benny Caiola, an early customer and friend of Horacio Pagani, who passed away in 2010. The model was developed to be lighter and more aerodynamic than the standard Huayra, with an emphasis on track use.

Under the rear hood, the Huayra BC retains the Mercedes-AMG 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12 engine, but with power raised to 789 horsepower and torque of 1,100 Nm. Weight was reduced by about 132 kg through extensive use of carbon fiber, titanium, and other lightweight materials. The transmission is a dual-clutch automated unit, replacing the single-clutch automated manual of the base model.

The aerodynamics were completely revised, with a new front bumper, larger rear diffuser, and a fixed rear wing that generates more downforce. The suspension is adaptive, and brakes are carbon-ceramic. Production was limited to just 20 units, all sold before the official launch, with an estimated price of 2.5 million dollars.

The Huayra BC represents the pinnacle of Pagani engineering at its time, combining art, technology, and exclusivity. Its design, with flowing curves and intricate details, reflects the brand's philosophy of creating automotive masterpieces. It remains one of the most coveted hypercars among collectors.
