Imagine a car that costs more than a luxury villa in Mumbai and is rarer than a diamond. That is the Pagani Huayra Codalunga. This car is currently trending on the internet, and car lovers in India are asking one big question: What makes this machine so special?

Italian hypercar maker Pagani is known for building cars that look like art. The Huayra Codalunga (which means “Long Tail” in Italian) is their latest masterpiece. It was created by a special division called “Grandi Complicazioni” for customers who wanted a clean, elegant design inspired by the race cars of the 1960s.

Here is everything you need to know about this ultra-rare vehicle, its massive price tag in Indian Rupees, and why it is breaking the internet.

What is the Pagani Huayra Codalunga?

The Huayra Codalunga is a special version of the standard Pagani Huayra. The biggest difference is the back of the car. The rear engine cover is 360mm longer than the normal model. This “long tail” design makes the car look smoother and helps it cut through the air faster.

Horacio Pagani, the founder, designed this car to honor the Le Mans race cars from the 60s. Unlike modern supercars that have many wings and spoilers, the Codalunga is smooth and clean. It uses a special matte paint that makes the car’s lines stand out. Even the interior is special, using woven leather and nubuck to give it a classic, vintage feel.

Engine and Performance: The V12 Beast

Under the hood, this car is a monster. It is powered by a 6.0-litre twin-turbo V12 engine supplied by Mercedes-AMG.

• Power: It produces a massive 840 Horsepower.
• Torque: It generates 1,100 Nm of torque.
• Weight: It weighs only 1,280 kg, which is very light for a car with this much power.
• Exhaust: It features Pagani’s signature titanium exhaust system, which weighs only 4.4 kg and is coated in ceramic.

This combination makes the car incredibly fast, though Pagani focuses more on the “driving experience” than just top speed numbers.

Price in India: How Much Does It Cost?

This is the part that shocks everyone. The global price of the Pagani Huayra Codalunga is around €7 million.

If we convert this directly to Indian currency, it is approximately ₹60 Crore.

However, if someone were to import this car to India, the price would be much higher. After adding customs duties (which can be over 100%) and road taxes, the final on-road price in India could easily cross ₹120 Crore.

To give you an idea, for this price, you could buy:

• 20 Rolls-Royce Cullinans.
• Or over 100 Mercedes-Benz S-Class luxury sedans.

Why is it Trending Now?

Even though the car was first shown a few years ago, it is trending again now. This is likely because:

1. Viral Videos: High-quality videos of the car driving on public roads are going viral on Instagram and YouTube. The sound of its V12 engine is unique.
2. The “Speedster” Version: Reports suggest Pagani has been working on an open-top “Speedster” version of the Codalunga, keeping the buzz alive in 2026.
3. Rarity: Only 5 units of the Coupe were ever made. When something is this rare, people always want to talk about it.

Is It Available in India?

Sadly, you cannot walk into a showroom and buy this car. All 5 units were sold out before the car was even publicly launched.

While there are no Pagani Codalungas in India right now, Indian billionaires are known for their love of supercars. For example, Adar Poonawalla (CEO of Serum Institute) has been spotted driving a Pagani Huayra in London. This connection keeps Indian fans hoping that one day, a Pagani might officially roar on Indian streets.
