The Pagani Zonda never shies away from the track, a fact that has been proven time and again in the past with production car records on the Nürburgring Nordschleife. With input from its enthusiastic, track-focused customers, the Pagani team developed the Pagani Zonda R, utilizing bespoke technical solutions to meet the performance requirements for a track version of the highly popular Pagani Zonda F.
The central monocoque is made of a carbon-titanium composite, which increases rigidity while significantly reducing weight. Directly bolted to the chassis is the Mercedes AMG-derived 6.0-liter V12 race engine, producing 750 hp and 710 Nm of torque. Direct throttle control via a mechanical cable ensures immediate throttle response.
