Pagani Automobili is proud to unveil the Pagani Zonda Roadster F, a new jewel in the Zonda family: fast open top motoring at its best.
Hand built at the Pagani Atelier in a limited run of 25, the Pagani Zonda Roadster F offers the outstanding driveability and performance of the Pagani Zonda F Coupè, enhanced by the pleasure of driving with a gentle breeze in your hair.

Thanks to an original roof made out of carbon fibre and cloth (removable in a few seconds) and due to the use of carbon fabrics for the construction of the central chassis, bodywork and interior, it was possible to maintain the dry weight of 1230kg, which translates in a weight/power ratio of 1,89kg/hp for the Clubsport version.
Now think about this; a light and rigid vehicle body, pushed by the mighty 7.3 Litre Mercedes-AMG V12, with a power of 650hp and a torque of 780Nm! The 0-200kph time takes just 9.8 seconds and a few instants later you exceed the 300kph mark... all topless.

The Pagani Zonda Roadster F travels along the boundary where beauty and power merge together forming something special; it's sinuous and aerodynamically shaped bodywork gets its prominence from sharp edges and elegant lines, which show at first glance its extraordinary potential.
From the cockpit you enjoy a magnificent view, unusual for a supercar. With your hands on the steering wheel you enjoy an environment that far exceeds most expectations, with a mixture of carbon fibre, soft leather and polished aluminium lighting up your senses.

The precious instrument cluster looks like the handiwork of a watchmaker. It reveals the pure-breed of an Italian GT car: thanks to its personality, mixing sensuality, aggressiveness and magnetic beauty, you can easily imagine it driving along the sea front in Monte Carlo or screaming down a straight at Le Mans. All this, supported by handling that is unbelievably efficient and sincere and that monitors constantly what is happening to every single wheel; creating the feeling of the power behind you and the precise response in front.

The Pagani Zonda Roadster F is not a racecar; it is rather a jewel handcrafted in Italy, a whirl of emotions, a masterpiece for the connoisseur who cares to drive fast. Very fast. Like the heart beating within its soul.
The fastest, most exclusive, most powerful and most expensive Roadster in the world. The Pagani Zonda Roadster F.

The original idea for the Covini C6W was conceived by Ferruccio Covini in '74 and made provision for 10 inches front wheels because there where no low profile tyres at the time. The project was ditched in favour of the Soleado prototype, deemed more important, and lay dormant until the 80s when hydro-pneumatic suspension for the four front wheels where devised to optimise weight distribution under various loading conditions. High development costs and other contingencies forced the project to be delayed again. Its use of new ABS technologies and airbags in the 90s pointed in the direction of new research into active and passive safety. This aspect encouraged backing from companies for its development.

Why six wheels?

• in case of a front tyre deflation, the vehicle control is guaranteed by the other wheel next to it.
• our front disc brakes, although a smaller single area, ensure a greater braking surface; this means less overheating and a higher brake effort
• low risk of aquaplaning, due to the two foremost wheels, which wipe the water for the ones behind them, ensuring a better roadholding
• comfort is a consequence of more evenly distributed reaction forces in the supension: the reaction in case of a pot hole is divided between the four front wheels and the shudder in the chassis is limited.
• reduced unsprung weight in the wheels improves the grip. Directional stability is improved: a change of angle due to slack in the steering mechanism (in stuctures like silentblocks) is compensated by the second set of wheels.
• two additional springs and dampers provide a better handling for the vehicle.
