Pagani unveils the second of five Huayra Codarunga vehicles.

Pagani surprised the automotive world last summer with a unique long-tail version of the Huayi, named Codarunga, which means "long tail" in Italian.

The car was born from the request of two loyal customers who wanted a Pagani with a streamlined design reminiscent of the grand race cars of the 1960s. The customers worked closely for two years with the Italian brand's special projects department, known as Pagani Grandi Complicazioni, to arrive at the final design.

Pagani has committed to build five cars starting at 7 million euros each, and the second of the five was unveiled this week. It is bronze-colored with exposed carbon fiber tail stripes.

The body of the Huayra Codalunga is made of lightweight composite and has an extended tail, requiring an engine cover that is 14.2 inches longer than the standard Huayra cover. Power, on the other hand, comes from the same 6.0-liter V-12 twin turbo as the Huayra, but the output is raised to 827 hp from the Huayra's 730 hp.

Although the Huayra Codalunga is officially the final version of the Huayra, Pagani can continue to offer new Huayras, like the company's debut supercar, the Zonda.

Last September, Pagani introduced a successor to the Huayra in the form of another V-12 supercar, the Utopia. Pagani had at one point planned to offer an electric version of the car, but dropped that plan last year, citing lack of demand and a lack of desire for EVs.
