Before everybody’s perfection was achievedthe lines of the car Pagani Huayra, engineers from the garage of Horatio Pagani worked hard for five years. As a result, the model has already gained a reputation as a machine in which the present, past and future are reunited in one model. Its main problem lies only in the fact that only a few people are destined to appreciate the quality of performance and modern technology used in the new product. The debut of the car took place in 2013 in Geneva.
Engine
The first thing that admires PaganiHuayra, - technical characteristics of the power unit. Under its hood is a six-liter turbocharged engine consisting of twelve cylinders. This engine was borrowed from the model Mercedes AMG. The power plant is able to develop power up to 700 horsepower. The main feature of the turbine design is that the driver has the ability at any time to control the operation of the engine and prevent possible delays. This happens due to the fact that the smallest stroke of the throttle causes an immediate response. In addition, the motor is equipped with various systems that are able to withstand the most unfavorable operating conditions. Compared with numerous analogues, the engine differs not only significantly lower fuel consumption (18 liters per hundred kilometers), but also a reduction in the emission of harmful substances into the atmosphere.
Transmission
Model Pagani Huayra is equippedrobotized gearbox on seven steps. Its manufacturer is the British company Xtrac, which specializes in the development and supply of transmissions for some racing series cars. Strange as it may seem, a rather conservative and simple mechanism, in which there is only one set of clutch, works in conjunction with a super-powerful motor. The fact is that the use of a more complex box would undoubtedly lead to an increase in the weight of the machine, resulting in a great loss of time. After some consultations with potential customers, Italian designers preferred the smaller problem.
Body and exterior
At the heart of the Pagani Huayra model is absolutelyThe new monocoque, which is made from an alloy of titanium and carbon. To ensure greater body rigidity, composite materials and technologies were used here that were first tested on the Zonda R modification. The doors of the car are made in the shape of a gull wing, which ends closer to the center of the roof. In order to increase safety, the fuel tank is completely behind the driver. Its location is additionally reinforced with a grille, for the manufacture of which complex, resistant from a ballistic point of view materials are used. Chrome-molybdenum inserts are installed at the front and rear of the car, the main purpose of which is to ensure the optimum ratio of weight and stiffness of the car. It should be noted that in the event of an accident, this design absorbs a significant portion of the energy.
One of the most expensive and conspicuousthe gifts that the Pagani Huayra inherited from the previous modification (Zonda R) were bi-xenon headlights equipped with a DRL system. In addition, the brand has a streamlined shape, achieved by combining the diffuser and the rear bumper. Particular attention is paid to the designers to find solutions designed to reduce the weight of the machine. As a result, a fairly successful combination of different elements led to the fact that its total value is only 1350 kg.
Speed characteristics
The maximum speed of the Pagani Huayra is378 km / h To reach the mark of 100 km / h, 3.2 seconds is enough for the model. Along with this, it is impossible not to note the instantaneous response of the car to pressing the brake pedal. At a speed of 200 km / h, it can completely stop in just 4.2 seconds. The novelty boasts excellent aerodynamic parameters, due to which it overcomes steep turns even at high speed.
Cost
According to the Italian designers, every year theythey plan to collect forty copies of Pagani Huayra, the price of each of which in the American market starts from the mark of 1.4 million dollars. Taking into account additional options and such a figure can grow significantly. Despite this, already now the turn for an exclusive car is painted for several years in advance.
