Pagani has revealed the new Huayra Roadster BC, the topless version of the most aggressive Huayra ever since the model’s original debut back in 2012. As with all Paganis, the new Huayra Roadster BC will be limited to just 40 examples, all of which have already been sold. Pagani’s latest creation is using an evolved version of its own carbo-tanium tub chassis, which is not only lighter but also stronger than ever; the Huayra Roadster BC tips the scales at just 1,250kg (2,755lbs), which is scarily exciting if you consider the power it offers. The twin-turbo 6.0-liter V12 engine is a new unit that’s designed specifically for Pagani by AMG, and will be found in future Paganis as well. Power output is rated at 791hp (802PS) and 775lb-ft (1050Nm) of torque, which should prove enough to make you dizzy each time you sneeze at the throttle. As before, a seven-speed Xtrac automated manual transmission is the only option, offering a rawer feeling to the lucky owner. The bod...

Pagani may be a tiny company with limited research and development resources, but it is already planning two new versions of the Huayra, just after unveiling the Roadster at the Geneva Motor Show. It will come as little surprise to anyone that the first new model on Pagani’s agenda is a BC Roadster. Although Horacio Pagani divulged very few details about the model to Road & Track, it has the potential to be even more capable that the BC coupe. For those that didn’t know, the Huayra Roadster isn’t simply a droptop variant of the coupe. It has been entirely re-engineered and uses a number of technologies from the BC to make it faster and lighter. According to Horacio, the BC Roadster will arrive towards the end of this decade with an undisclosed “surprise”. After the Huayra BC Roadster launches, Pagani will overhaul the coupe for a launch in 2020. Essentially a second-gen Huayra, it will benefit from a host of new technologies and feature new components throughout its entire...

Pagani's  new  Huayra BC , which debuts at the  Geneva Motor Show , takes an already excellent hypercar and puts it on a serious diet to create an even more hardcore coupe. The BC name doesn't reference that this machine is capable of transporting its driver back in time, but instead it refers to Benny Caiola who was the company's first customer. The BC retains the Huayra's Mercedes-AMG-sourced 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12, but output increases to over 750 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque. The company says the final figures should be ready "soon," and the specs at the bottom of the announcement also show the equivalent of 789 hp, which hints the actual number may be in that range. Pagani doesn't mention performance specs yet, which is probably because the engine output isn't final. Pagani also sheds significant weight off the original coupe. The BC weighs 2,685 pounds versus about 2,976 pounds for a standard  Huayra , depending on specification. ...
