Supercar fans rejoice! There’s a new Pagani Zonda F just around the corner, and we’ve spotted it out doing a bit of testing.
While it keeps the same body style – which is nearly10 years old now – there’s a bigger, wider grille at the front and some sleeker looking headlights. It changes the face of the Italian for the first time in its life.
The wing mirrors receive a tweak, while at the back there’s a restyled rear diffuser and re-sculptured rear flanks, as well as an all-new air scoop to increase airflow to the engine – which is likely to see a power hike.
In keeping with Zonda tradition, the engine will be Mercedes sourced, with the unit from the new SL65 AMG Black Series rumoured – a 6.0-litre V12 monster with 661bhp and 1,000Nm of torque!
Another possibility is the 5.5-litre V8 powerplant from the McLaren Mercedes SLR 722, providing 650bhp and 820Nm of torque, and a top speed in the SLR of 209mph. They’re exactly the kind of figures that have made the Zonda F so desirable already.
It won’t be as lightweight or hardcore as the track-focussed Zonda Cinque, but that car’s six-speed Cima sequential gearbox could be shared with the new car – cutting the current F’s 3.6-second 0-60mph dash down even further. Expect prices to be around the £400,000 mark.
