If there is ever an understatement for a headturner of a sports car, the Pagani Imola Roadster will be first on that queue. Featuring a oneof-a-kind design and technical specification, this vehicle does not fear the track even if its eight specimens are homologated for road use throughout the world. It is the best-performing open-top the brand has ever created.
“We combined the Huayra Roadster BC’s sophisticated technology with the design and aerodynamic principles of the Huayra R track car,” says Lorenzo Kerkoc, Head of Pagani Grandi Complicazioni. “The result is the much more advanced and complex Imola Roadster. The more powerful engine requires increased cooling, prompting the team to meticulously address the radiators and the dynamics of interior air flows, enhancing the Imola Roadster’s reliability and performance.”
Cooling down this “hot” car comes from two new features - the enlargement of the two front air intakes and the dual outlet for warm air, one is concealed in the wheel arch and the other is on the side of the bumper, a distinctive feature of the Imola model. The openings on the wheel arches provide many advantages, such as reducing pressure under the front end to benefit aerodynamic stability and improve airflow towards the rear aerodynamic appendages.
Standing out at the top of the silhouette, the air scoop maximizes the effectiveness of the Pagani V12’s aspiration; the impressive central fin minimizes waves and stabilizes the vehicle. For the first time, the air scoop and the supports of the rear wing have been integrated with the hood.
