The Pagani Zonda is a very impressive car. It stands shoulder to shoulder with some of the finest Supercars in creation built by some of the most iconic Supercar makers in the world. Now it’s time to move forward and Pagani are planning on launching the all new Pagani C9 in the Autumn. Catchy name, eh? Well that’s just its Pagani code name.
But he has been talking about the C9 to Argentina’s Auto Blog (which as Horacio is Argentinian is no big surprise). He says that the new C9 is getting a custom-built Mercedes AMG 6.0 litre bi-turbo V12 delivering 700bhp and 737ft/lbs of torque. It will deliver a 0-60mph time under 3 seconds. Proper Veyron territory. The Pagani Zonda is already one of the most dramatically styled and exclusive supercars in recent production but the man behind the car, Horacio Pagani, has more ambitious plans for a new model set to enter production next year. Unlike the Zonda, which was only offered to a few select markets, the new car - internally coded the C9 – is billed as a global model.
The car’s styling will be very similar to the Zonda but its overall proportions will be smaller. Expect to see it in full production trim at next year’s Geneva Motor Show in March.
