The track-only Huayra hypercar is one of Pagani’s most unique innovations, which include some of the industry’s most unique cars.

The sound this car emits cannot be matched by anything other than a Formula 1 car from the 1990s. Each change is marked by a sharp bang before the action resumes. The screaming engine mixes wonderfully with the straight-cut gearbox’s recognisable whine. Combine that with the engine’s lower tones and occasional off-throttle growls, and you have a recipe for an amazing-sounding vehicle in every regard.
