Pagani unveiled the Huayra 70 Anima at the Concours at Wynn Las Vegas on October 31, 2026. The Anima is the last of three one-off Huayra 70 cars, joining the Huayra 70 Trionfo and Huayra 70 Derecho, and all three appeared together publicly for the first time.

Why it matters

The reveal completes a commissioned three-car series that Horacio Pagani initiated, presenting a limited-run design focused on exposed mechanical elements. The Anima's European debut has not yet been announced.

The Anima uses a seven-speed manual gearbox with three pedals and an exposed shift linkage, a configuration Pagani has not paired with a published power or torque figure. Pagani has not confirmed the car's output.

The players

Horacio Pagani

Founder of Pagani Automobili, the Italian supercar maker known for its carbon-fiber hypercars, who commissioned the three-car Huayra 70 series.

The details

The Anima pairs exposed carbon fiber with a Custom Metallic finish infused with diamond dust, and features a tall intake and fin behind the cockpit, individual roll hoops, a fixed rear wing, a large diffuser, and a bespoke six-pipe exhaust finished in white ceramic.

Timeline

  1. July 2026: Huayra 70 Derecho premiered at Goodwood Festival of Speed.

  2. October 31, 2026: Anima debuted at the Concours at Wynn Las Vegas.

  3. November 10, 2026: Horacio Pagani's 71st birthday, ten days after the Anima reveal.

Roadmap

The Anima continues the Huayra line, following the 2024 Huayra Epitome with its manual layout and the 2022 Huayra Utopia. The one-off series shows Pagani using bespoke commissions to explore manual driving and exposed mechanical design within its hypercar lineup.

For buyers, the Anima is a one-off commission rather than a production model, so it is not available for purchase through a standard dealership. The unannounced European debut means enthusiasts outside Las Vegas will need to wait for further appearance details from Pagani.

The takeaway

The Anima shows how Pagani uses bespoke, limited-run builds to showcase exposed carbon construction and a rare manual layout, giving collectors a view of the company's design direction beyond its production cars.
