The $2.5 Million Pagani Utopia is an attack on the senses, delivering one of the most memorable driving experiences of any road car.
First Drive Review
- "For a car of which just 130 units will exist, thousands turned up for a glimpse of the open-top two-seater. Even as the day wore on, seeing it in its entirety proved challenging amongst a sea of sport coats and big hats. At that moment, I understood its draw: even if you have never driven or owned one, seeing its striking design and extreme proportions is experience enough."
- "Inside, it’s as analog as it is beautiful. Every control is a switch, a lever, or a button, each requiring considerable force to engage. Pagani mills its wheel out of a single piece of aluminum, with its hub, rim, and spokes all existing as one component. Two shift paddles with an exposed carbon finish sit just ahead, creating textural contrast against the aluminum and leather-wrapped wheel. "
- "The figures are, as you’d expect, monumental. Doubly so once you consider that despite the abundance of plug-in hybrids in the seven-figure space, the Utopia does not incorporate any form of electrification. It develops 864 horsepower and 811 pound-feet of torque. Its peak torque output runs from 2800-5900 rpm, a significant spread considering its V12 maxes out at 6700 rpm."
- "What I saw as I walked the lawn at the The Quail was undoubtedly a shift. A view of an industry redirecting its priorities away from superfluous numbers in pursuit of creating truly memorable and thrilling experiences. All minus one because, as the Utopia proves, Pagani has already mastered the art."
