Take a stroll around Codalunga to see all its amazing details.
Shmee150 has the opportunity to ride shotgun on the Pagani Huayra Codalunga prototype factory car for a ride up the hill at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. He also spots some of the most high-end hypercars along the way.
The driver behind the wheel points out the Goodwood hill climb It is quite challenging. It’s not a race track. The road serves as the driveway to the Goodwood House estate for a lot of the year. There are also imperfections in the asphalt.
A wide variety of vehicles will be seen climbing the hill during the Festival of Speed. Many are older vehicles, which can leave oil and other slippery substances on track.
Also, hypercars often run on cold tires. The vehicles have less grip because there isn’t enough room to warm the rubber before climbing up hills.
In Italian, “Codalunga” means long tail. Huayra has been resculpted to be 14.17 inches (360 mm) longer. It also features a flowing rear section that recalls endurance race cars of the 1960s. The back has active flaps. There are also three circular taillights with an arch on each end and four ceramic-coated quad exhausts at the center.
There are improved controls inside than other Huayra models. The bolsters have a checkerboard design. The fitted luggage comes with the car in the same style.
The Pagani Huayra Codalunga has a mid-mounted, 6.0-liter twin turbo V12 that produces 840 horsepower (617 Kilowatts) as well as 811 pound-feet (1.100 Newton-meters). You can choose from a louder, straighter setup or a quieter and more restricted configuration. The hypercar is just 2,822 pounds (1.290 kg) in total.
Pagani only makes five Codalungas each for EUR7million. Each of them has customers. The company is currently working on the Huayra successor. It will debut on September 12 under codename C10.
