Just when we thought the Huayra had officially taken a bow to let the Utopia enjoy the spotlight, Pagani does what Pagani does best and pulls us right back in. The new Huayra 70 Trionfo arrives as a birthday celebration for company founder Horacio Pagani, and it is the kind of rolling sculpture that reminds you this brand never really “moves on” so much as it evolves its legends. It also continues a tradition, since Pagani marked Horacio’s 60th with the unforgettable Zonda HP Barchetta.
What makes the 70 Trionfo especially wild is how little of the original car actually remains. Pagani says only the doors and window frames carry over, while everything else has been reimagined, including fresh bodywork and a new lighting signature that swaps the Huayra’s familiar quad setup for dual-point headlights that hint at the long-tail Codalunga. Add in the green-and-orange exposed carbon theme and the whole thing reads like a one-off showpiece that somehow still looks ready to attack a runway at full song.
Only three examples are planned, and this particular car is reportedly the only one wearing the “Trionfo” name. The aggressive aero and track-ready attitude suggest it’s closely related to the Huayra Roadster BC formula, but the power story gets even better. The AMG-sourced twin-turbo 6.0-liter V12 is said to be turned up to 834 horsepower, and in a move that will make purists smile, it’s paired with a seven-speed manual transmission instead of an automated manual.
That manual detail is more than a cool footnote, because it signals Pagani’s willingness to keep the driving experience as mechanical and intimate as the craftsmanship. We have already seen the brand dabble in three-pedal Huayra magic with special builds like the Huayra Epitome, and the 70 Trionfo feels like another love letter to that idea. It’s rare, it’s outrageous, and it’s the sort of birthday present only Pagani could build, then casually drop into the world like it’s just another Tuesday in Modena.
