    Track-Only Pagani Huayra R Revealed With 838 HP (625 kW) Naturally Aspirated V12

    The Pagani Huayra has been around for 10 years believe it or not and now they have just revealed their most extreme offering yet, the Huayra R.

    Like its Zonda R predecessor, this is a track-only machine with a naturally aspirated V12. So this does not use the Mercedes-AMG twin-turbo 6.0-litre V12 used in the other Huayra models as this is a new naturally aspirated unit made by German racing firm HWA.

    Apparently, Pagani asked their customers if they would want a twin-turbo or a naturally aspirated unit, and the latter was the overwhelming favourite (of course). Where there is a Pagani, there is power and this is no different as the 6.0-litre V12 pumps out 850 hp at 8250 rpm and 750 Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque between 5500 and 8300 rpm. Redline is set at 9000 rpm so you can just imagine what sort of soundtrack this track-only weapon will produce.

    Sending the power to rear wheels is a six-speed dog-ring sequential which is a stressed member as well, supporting the Huayra R’s rear subframe. This was also a new development from HWA and instead of using Dallara for the carbon monocoque they tapped into HWA for this too. It has an integrated roll cage, seats, and side impact-absorption structures.

    They wanted the car to produce 1,000 kg (2204 lbs) of downforce at 320 km/h (199 mph) and they achieved that.

    As expected, the most extreme Pagani hypercar ever features an elaborate motorsport-inspired aerodynamic package comprising a massive fixed rear wing, larger diffuser and other aero elements normally associated with Le Mans racers, such as a roof scoop.

    Pagani claims the Huayra features “the highest level of automotive engineering and aerodynamic know-how” and bills it as “a laboratory car that incorporates the technology of future Pagani models”, “a celebration of performance, technology and art applied to a track car” and “the pinnacle of Pagani Automobili technological development”.

    Naturally, the Huayra R is expensive and if you have the chance to buy one, you will need a minimum of €2.6 million (plus tax). Pagani only plans to build 30 examples, and if they’re not already spoken for, you can bet they will be soon.

    To say this is an exciting car is the understatement of the year but let’s hope Pagani continues down this path and we see this mighty naturally aspirated V12 in use in other creations.

    • The Audi RS3 is one of two ultimate ‘mega hatches’, and probably the best of the breed. Its astonishing pace and theatrical engine combine with huge grip and more of a driver focus than previous generations. It’s also a brilliant daily.

Are you parting with R1.3m (or more) for one? Let us know in the comments below.

    • Menacing Frozen Brooklyn Grey Metallic BMW M4 CSL sold by @bmwbryanston spotted in Linksfield recently by @thomasovitale 😎

Just 15 of these came into the country priced at R3.57m.

Would you prefer this or the freshly revealed M3 CS?

    • The BMW i4 M50 is quite possibly the best EV we have had the pleasure of testing.

It's superbly comfortable but at the simple touch of a button, it switches from tourer to tornado and you find yourself instantly doing speeds you should not be doing.

While not all EVs will have the same refinement or scintillating performance, this was both relaxing and thrilling to drive.

The Gran Coupé is a handsome car with a sense of sleek length and disguises its hatchback as a booted saloon rear end and that M Portimao Blue metallic paint certainly garnered a lot of positive attention.

Compared with the BMW iX it’s less of a show-stopper, but comes with a much more attractive price tag – and while the i4 is still quite the financial investment (R1,6m) we feel it gives you excellent value in return.

Yes, we did have a few charging issues (Eskom) and if you don't have a Wallbox charger at home filling up with petrol is MUCH easier. However, that being said if you’re looking for an outstanding driving experience both on the twisties and on the highway, this is definitely worth considering if you have decided to make the jump to the electric car.

    • The totally bonkers Ferrari 812 Competizione was spotted in Bryanston today by Brad Ainge.

It actually makes the F12tdf look quite tame in comparison. Which would you rather have?

Priced around R14m depending on spec.

    • Our time has come to an end with the most potent version of Mzansi’s favourite bakkie, the new Toyota Hilux GR-Sport.

The 2.8-litre turbo diesel powerplant has been tweaked to push out 165kW and 550 Nm thanks to an updated ECU which also responsible for the much needed revised mapping of the six-speed auto.

The sporty Hilux gets new monotube shocks as well as stiffer coil springs which make the bakkie a lot more settled at higher speed and provide great feedback on some of the twisty bits. If you don’t have a full load at the back however, you might find it a tad too stiff and rather twitchy for day to day driving. 

Inside you get a load of sporty touches including “carbon fibre” trim pieces but the highlight has to be the race inspired front seats complete with Alcantara inserts and some GR badging on the headrests. 

For the Hilux customers, this is a welcome addition to the range as the exterior and interior aesthetics align very neatly with the GR brand.

Yours from R891,400. Are you picking this or the Legend RS?
