It looks like an extremely futuristic concept car from 1960s, and I like it

For me, Pagani always feels like Baroque art. It's not my personal taste but it very much succeeds at what it wants to be. I actually think the Utopia may be the most pure embodiment of Pagani's design vision so far (i like the Zonda btw).

I love pagani’s designs, the details on this one are gorgeous but idk if it’s the greenhouse or the headlights that don’t really look good. It’s weird. I prefer the Huayra

Tbh "tacky" was the first thing that came to mind when I first saw it. It looks and feels like a NYC apartment someone like Tommy Hilfiger would have. Also, all these fluid lines give me more of an art nouveau style than art deco. However, considering all this, it does look unique, it looks like a piece of art and something kind of timeless. It is a matter of opinion, but I quite like it, as corny as it is.

This design looks a tad too busy, almost like two different design languages clashing together. I believe it would have turned out better had Pagani kept it simple like the Huayra which is just sublime.

I honestly really like it. It could be a tiny bit simpler and the glovebox is hideous but overall it's still very elegant

I love it. I think for their brand they dont care about NEW. They make what they want, whether it looks old or new. It looks CLASSIC and timeless

A lot of people seem to forget how the Huayra was initially received, following on from the Zonda. Many people thought the Huayra was fussy, ugly etc in comparison. But now we've all had a long time to digest and love the Huayra, it's now the Utopia that is getting the same reception as the Huayra did.

For me the Utopia is an evolution of the Huayra, as opposed to the dramatic change from Zonda to Huarya. I actually really like that Horacio seems to be heavily influenced by The World's Fair from the 50s and 60s. I absolutely love the exhaust surround with the venting on top. Reminds me of a turbine concept car for the future kinda design. Andrew Ryan would clearly approve of this design.

it's beautiful, however 12yrs later and all we have is as refreshed Huayra, that's disappointing! Could have done more with it. The rearend clam shell engine cover could have been reworked, the leather straps visible on the outside of the door hinges is wrong. should have been clean on the outside, no obstructions

It really seems like a fusion between the Zonda and Huayra. Personally, it’s my favorite Pagani design. I’m digging the art nouveau look.

I was very on the fence about it but then I thought……. The same was said about a lot of great classics. The Egg is like an incredible sport watch or a diver, the Utopia is like a limited highly detailed clear front and back cased mechanical watch. It will grow on you over time as it feels modern but already classic.

It's crazy, but it looks as if the huayra was its successor and not the other way round.

The Launch Spec did the new Utopia Dirty! A proper two-tone spec like other, earlier Pagani's would do this design justice.

The more I look at it, the more I love it. Its an incredibly elegant piece of art in the form of a car

The more I look at the Utopia the more I full in love, the side profile is my favorite angle without doubt, so low profile and badass looking yet so allegiant

Wasn't blown away by the design like I expected to be. This is the new Pagani. It's supposed to drop your jaw on sight. Look at this then look at a Huayra BC. There is no comparison. Heck. You'd think the Huayra is the newer car on the outside.

This design really upsets me tbh. On one hand, I love the rear end and I love the side profile, particularly with the curved side splitter thing it has going on by both the front and rear wheel wells. The shape of the car overall has some beautiful flourishes and I think the execution of the tail lights is well done too. On the other hand, the border around theheadlights, visible leather door straps, overly decorative vent behind the front wheels, and absolute mess of a lower grill completely destroy any semblence of seamlessness to the body that previous Paganis did so well. And none of these over-designed graphic features feel very connected to each other either. They all feel kind of tacked on and the headlights look like something from 2010, giving the whole thing a bit of a "Pagani Parts Bin" vibe. It's like they had Michelangelo himself sculpt this gorgeous body and then hired a high school ametuers to do the graphic details and just told him to, "Fill in the blank space." It's a remarkably sexy design ruined by tacky details. :/

I absolutely love Pagani. I admit I am not the biggest fan of this new model. However, I felt sort of the same when the Hyura was first showcased and it has completely grown on me, what a beautiful car. I suspect I will feel the same about this car in a few years.

The design is just too retro. Maybe some kind of a two tone colour scheme would help. Definitely the front lights got to be changed. A good thing is that you'll instantly recognise as a Pagani

Although I generally prefer simpler lines, I actually like The Utopia a lot!

I work for the theatre where the car was unveiled. I can assure you that in person is on another level. It's just beautiful

It's beautiful in every way. They combined the Huyara and the Zonda and hence the Utopia, and it's stunning. Keep in mind, this isn't made to do donuts in or drag race. It's for super rich to buy, admire, then sell or trade among other extremely rich people. There's no utility purpose for this car. This is not a Lamborghini.

I feel like they were going for a vintage meets modern kinda look tbh. I think they pulled it off well.

Maybe it’s the color, but this car looks older than the huayra.

I think it's best to reserve judgement about this car until we see a real customer spec. Then I think it will come to life

Cool video! I personally love the new utopia actually, I don’t know what it exactly is but I just love the organic design that you pointed out. It just hit that nail on the head of my personal taste. But I can definitely understand Why people don’t like it as much as the older ones.

Note: Pagani works directly with clients when It comes to designing new models too. They certainly have a niche that want this particular style, plus the whole design Is clearly retro. I agree that there's surely too much going on in some parts, but comparing It to the new koenigsegg Is totally wrong in my opinion. Pagani stands out because they make Cars to fully be works of art and pleasure of driving and attention to details and materials, people that buy Paganis want this, and i think they're one of the very few that can afford to deliver this. There's Always been tons of hypercar manufacturers that overall make the same 1000+hp car

I feel like everyone doesn’t know what Pagani does as a car company. They just assume they are always pushing for the next leap in technology. Pagani is more so pushing for the next level of beauty in their own cars and I think that’s amazing.

I see a ton of critiques of this car, but for some reason i absolutely love this car. In my opinion its the best looking pagani to date. The Huayra was a bit bulbous for my liking, and the Zonda front end was a bit abrupt in terms of the frontward slope. The Utopia is RAD, I love how the "cockpit" is somehwat inset on the car, similar to the CGT. Hopefully ill see one in person one day

In the space of about 2hrs I have gone from thinking meh, to thinking it is absolutely stunning, the more I see it the more I love it, must say tho, your 1980s American sedan style dashboard made me laugh because I couldn't quite think what it reminded me off but you nailed it 😂 maybe that will grow on me too

I respect HP for not being forced down the path that all other hyper car manufacturers are doing with hybrid engines, ultra fast shifting automatic transmissions etc. Koenigsegg is the only other hypercar company to offer a manual but with the automatic all in one, and I feel like car companies now are too scared to go back to ways of driving people still love like a manual. At end of the day Pagani produces unique cars which they then build on over the years like the roadster or the R version. I do know the utopia was heavily tested in the wind tunnel so there is no doubt underneath the body work there is a lot of good things going on. Pagani is also my fav car brand in the world.

I wonder how it would look in a different color and with some black or carbon fiber accents. I feel a little black would help break up the individual pieces more, like how the Huayra had carbon fiber around the grille and diffuser. Also, seeing you have to keep moving show-stealing cats away from the camera is always a joy when watching your videos.

I actually really like the look of it, but I understand that people were expecting something a little more refreshing after 12 years

With this car’s design Pagani has essentially stated that it is not about creating something new every single time but creating something timeless and classic to be cherished for generations. I absolutely love it. Feels very organic and natural nevertheless very intricate. Tough to create a modern day hypercar that has a vintage feel to it. And the flowiness of the design makes it seem as it is one with nature and will simply glide through air. Beautiful!✨

This car would look fantastic in 2005. Pagani really hasn't done much to it's design language, and while that is admirable, it's also stagnating to me. They don't try anything really new or interesting. They just recycle the same design, and tweak it slightly. The interior looks old fashioned, the headlights look dated, the grill is a little too wide, and odd looking. The Huayra was probably their best model.

There's something about that final close up at 9:20 that reminds me of the Batmobile from the 1960's tv show. I think I prefer the Huayra overall. And that newest Koenigsegg iteration! Wow, sometimes less is so much more impactful.

I like it but im not crazy about it (for now). Huayra w/ the Pachetto pack was the best of its run. The Zonda is at like a godlike unreachable level

Pagani's attention to detail is amazing, but I think they focus on the details so much they don't get the basic ones (like the headlights, and maybe the shape) just right

The Utopia for the reasons you stated in your video, seems more like a step back especially compared to the Huayra and looks more like it belongs in the early 2000 or dare I say, early 90s even.

Before I start this video and read the comments on the car from anyone else's perspective, I just want to say that I am stunned, touched and engulfed by this car. It cannot be described by or be broken down into its individual elements, like its looks or its performance, because that would be missing the point of it as a whole, complete being. Like two entangled particles in the world of quantum physics, the different aspects aren't meant to be observed as or considered to be separate, they are one and the same thing. This, I think, is an object that serves no lesser function than to be read as a poem, to be seen as a pure expression of its creators' thoughts, to be a piece of art that is experienced by all senses. It is meant to be the utmost essence and yet the furthest evolution of the automobile.

They saw the CC850 and thought; "I can do that too!" Joking aside.. Utopia makes the Huayra look like a real piece of art. This one is way too confusing, and almost like a japanese mod kit for Huayra. There's circles, ellipses, rectangles, ovals, angles, it has everything!

LOL I posted earlier today that I thought the interior looked like a "late 70s American luxury car", so you're spot-on.

headlights reminds me of jiotto caspita anyways, codalunga or speedtail, which one do you prefer?

I honestly see a lot of Nissan R390 in the shape

When I first saw it, I thought it was a bit fussy. Then I took a step back and saw the curve of the windscreen, and the canopy style of the roof, and how all the fussy components look like they're floating. For some reason it gives me mandalorian vibes, like space but retro. I think art deco is about right. I like it. I'd like to daily one, that would be outrageous.

I do agree that the cc850’s design is timeless (I mean they’ve used that design for like 2 decades already lol) but something about the utopia has this *vintage Italian* design that’s just as attractive. Also I don’t really see much “emotion” within the cc850’s lines especially compared to the utopia. Imo it’s “too” simple to do that, but I still think it’s a beautiful car.

I think the GMA T.33 is also a good comparison, as it was inspired by 60’s Italian cars. But like the CC850 that car also has a very timeless, clean design. Something which cannot be said about the Pagani.

This new Pagani looks like a restomod early 90's supercar... Not ugly but strange to see nowadays, I think it's gonna be remembered as a cool design in 10 or 20 years

These were my exact thoughts about this car. I love art deco but some of its elements that found its way into this new Pagani seems tad out of place in conjunction with the rest of the car. And please don't get me wrong, I'm not here to bash Italian design, and I'm really pleased that manufacturers such as Pagani exist.

Front and side look mature, elegant and refreshing. Just fantastic! Same with the roof and the rounded, organic window shapes, fitting smoothly in the drivers compartment. However, the rear just doesn't seem right to me. The ellipse cutting into the tail light housing leaves behind a messy, shapeless frame. On top of that, there's these proportionally small tail lights sitting inside of them creating an even more oddly shaped leftover space. It's the combination of shapes and lines here that don't seem very coherent. Also because from the side, the bodywork seems to show some sort of kink near the taillight housing, making the overall bodywork direction at the rear of the car now pointing upwards look a little confusing.

the first minute I saw it I was doubting but it quickly grew on me once I saw it from various angles. I quite like it. Reminds me a bit of the 90's to 2000's bio design. Kind of makes me think of those silver cd players you bought in the 2000s

That is one BEAUTIFUL car. A little Michelangelo sculpture, A little Russian Bomber, A touch of steampunk, a kick of Star Wars. Chef's kiss!!!

Pagani is type of guy that many forget/doesn't know about, but the moment he's present, everybody subconsciously respect him and want to know.

a friend of mine just bought one, was invited o buy it. He sold it a week later for double the price. He still has to keep the car for at least 1 year as per contract with Pagani...but it's sad such cars will never be driven but just collected :(

The interior of the Utopia is a clear tribute to Horacio's favorite childhood car, the 60s Jaguar E-type

This reminds me of a lovely old watch. It appears simple from a distance but is also very intricate with lots of small details you notice up close

Honestly I don't know nothing about cars, but I found out this model a few days ago and I think it is the most beautiful car I have ever seen. I think that even for Pagani, who is about the art and design of the cars over anything else, this Utopia is focused on design. And I think that is perfectly valid and great, although not everyone loves all art.

I actually agree with you , the glove box area doesn't look right and I had the seem thought about it. I'm being very critical as much as you are, but i would still buy it

It looks older than the Zonda & Huyara, especially from the side view. It’s as if they’re releasing a prequel.

Agree, the rims look absolutely amazing.

I think this car's design is beautiful, and of course, very experimental, its unusual and needs some getting used to it but, but i dont think a car will ever look like this one and in a way it makes it beautiful to me.

And with this new release, the vanilla Huayra is still the best Pagani for me. This new Utopia seems like a case of lost direction from Pagani. I think they are leaning toward art-inspired supercar builder more than ever, but imo, their execution is not that successful. Some elements are a bit over done. I get it if the same is done on a luxury cars like Rolls-Royce and Bentley alike, but not so much for a supercar. And the biggest design fail to me would be the interior. This will sound brutal, but it's like a rushed, unfinished homework.

It looks like this weird japanese sports car "Mitsuoka Orochi" done right. Completely agree with the ironic fact that performance and tech oriented Koenigsegg created much more refined, pleasant and timeless desing than design and art oriented Pagani.

When I saw this car, it reminded me why I went into design. It has re-inspired me with my work and has pivoted my design philosophy.

I love this design. I'm not sure how to even describe it. Retro-futuristic? Timeless? It's like a vision of the future from a 1960s perspective. The side profile especially, is beautiful

I just wish it's a new design all together especially after seeing the huayra r and bc tempesta. I wouldn't feel that underwhelmed if this is just another limited run or a one-offs. But let's see, and I'm looking forward on how the pacchetto will look like for this one.

For me utopia looks like a pagani with modifications. And it looks more like a special edition rather than a successor of the huyara

Tbh the design features I want to change the most are Exterior: the headlights (dual HL instead of quad HL) and then either change or remove the two lower "scoops" either side in the front grille. Swap out the wheels (I understand they are functional) for something else) Interior: while each individual component is beautifully sculpted and finished, I feel they clash when all added together because of the shine (learn which parts need to standout or recede) Overall just a bit too "busy" or slightly over styled. I prefer the Huyra

If this car was to time travel to the future and the past, it would perfectly fit in any era.

Future = 3D Printing your own custom car design based on ur preferences combined with the companie's philosophies Using Ai Technology to make a great design in just a few hours, Then you get to choose which design u want that's on the list?

I never liked the Huayra that much. The tail lights were poorly integrated into the overall look and the front looked a bit boring. I prefer the cleaner and more playful look of the Utopia because it reflects the playful nature of owning a manual V12.

I'm really on the fence about the roofline, sometimes just too bubbly, sometimes it's pretty. But from personal experience the Italians are great at making cars that look far better in person. As much as I think the 458 is prettier, the f8 looks far better in person than I expected.

The Zonda, I crème myself. Huarya, I think a little garish. This... I have to wait a few years to really decide. I can also agree with the 80/s family wagon interior. Box dashboard really? They could have taken a better look at that.

I think the Utopia is vibrantly beautiful and with impeccable details. For those who think the car won't age well.... No Pagani has aged poorly. I'm not sure if I can say that about an Koenigsegg, however the new CC8 is special in looks, but in overall experience, it shall always be a Pagani. Always Paganis are art pieces that come to life with time.

To me it looks like a mix of the Zonda and the Huayra, but a mix like the Reventon was between the Murci and the Aventador, not smth new, just in the middle

I definitely prefer the pagani. Not despite its not perfect but because it is not perfect. There are things that are not explainable on the design that's only known by the designer of the artist like the extra lines on the vents of the grill, the kink of the side body line, the double chin of the rear roof line. But all of that set on this absolutely stunning porportion. I would love to change those for sure. But doing that would be no different than trying to paint eyebrows on Mona Lisa. The designs of the Utopia is flawed in many ways, it doesn't make you say "that's beautful" like the CC850 because of course it doesnt, but makes you ponder and stares at it even longer; It is an acquired taste that grows on your the more you look at it; it challenges your understanding of beauty the way you understand it. This car doesn't look like it's manufactured, but more like it's nurtured, and all of the flaws it supposedly have is the organic progress of forming under the provision but not the full control of the artist, because something that looks this stunning and wicked doesnt feel man made and goes to be a testament of how much, or rather how little design has went into this car. This car is designed with not pen and paper but with alcohol and cigarettes, and not made in a factory but bred (humanely?) inside one's womb. In short. Koni Pretty, Pagani wierd, Koni Great, but I like Pagani.

the rear looks amazing and the newheadligts aswell, hated the old huayra lights. always wanted a mix between the zonda and huayra aswell. not much i dislike with this car i always exclude interior because ive never seen an interior that stuck out and was like yo thats cool besides the mk4 supra with the jet cockpit idea but even that that looked bland since it was 1 color.

Those headlights are Pagani's "fried egg" headlights that Porsche rolled out and then returned to their roots.

I think this car looks way better than that Huayra ever did at any point in time. I see it as a course correction in design. Just gorgeous and timeless.

It sure is growing on me more and more. It sure is beautiful side profile and rear - the rim surrounding the headlights is something I am not sure of. I do love Pagani interiors, I don't feel like much has evolved, if anything a devolution in terms of interior design - However, I'm sure would be unbelievable in person. Would love to launch one over and over again, then test its grip to the limits.

That's the best looking model they have. It looks great.

Front with two little round lights doesn’t look good.

This car is huayra R maden road legal. The rear clamshell is coming directly from R. That been said. I would prefer them to had keep the wrap around lights than making two new light pods. This design will mature. But I expected it to be a little bit to bed down.

I like the side view of the Zonda, the wheels and interior of the Huayra, and the rear, roof and front of the new Utopia.

This car has a subtle art-deco-1930s steam punk feel to it. Haven't seen anything like it! There are a lot of creases and details on the body, but it just adds to the theme and timeless charm.

5:10 THAT'S EXACTLY what I thought when I saw the interior, that part reminds me to old american cars but I thought about GTA interiors of regular cars, that rectangular design lol

The Utopia makes me feel like a kid, seeing a super car for the first time again, I like it!

I prefer the huayra but I can appreciate that this is beautiful. I feel like it probably needs to be seen in person. The interior looks like a very nice minivan, which is not a compliment.

I have to agree with everything you said here, I was looking forward for a much better and cooler design, im not digging the design as of right now but in the future it will probably grow on me but who knows, but overall I’m sticking with both the Zonda and the Huayra, this isn’t my cup of tea.

It's like Horatio got all of his customers in one room and asked, "so what do you want for our next car?" and they replied, "a new, modernized Zonda". Et voila!

I absolutely love it!

Personally I love the utopia, and I have lost interest to pretty much every video that criticized its design after trying to understand why this car gets so much “hate”. Since most of them just call it ugly, which is very subjective, you don’t know where these people are coming from. Few of those who does redesign the car end up drawing a stereotypical hyper car even GTA Online won’t bother adding nowadays. This guy, on the other hand, speaks my mind, only put it in words better than I ever could, and he notices every detail I believe made the car special. Utopia does give me an art-deco retro futuristic vibe, the details are amazing, and the side skirt is absolutely gorgeous. He also points out everything that is “wrong” with the design and explains it in an aesthetic sense (not just “it’s ugly””it looks old”). Nothing is prefect, especially something that challenges our perspective of so-called trend. The problem is, we can getting so much information nowadays, and our beauty standards get challenged by so many things that serves no purpose other than being different, that we automatically reject anything that does not look exactly as we expected. Looking forward to your other videos :)

I personally like the Pagani more, because it looks like something that would look perfect parked in front or a Baroque style mansion. It looks classic.

I fully agree with absolutely everything you said. From the questionable front end design, to the good looking rear three quarter view, the unusual boxy interior and then to the timeless beauty of the CC850. Agree, agree, agree. BTW - I can't not see the word 'Itopia' in the rear badge. After noticing the second upright of the letter 'U' also being the letter 't' it now looks like a spelling mistake! Just me?

I think the issue with this car is that they launched recently the Huayra Colalonga, and it's basically this car but with a Huayra design. That's why it looks even more like something we've seen.

I don't know, I still think the Huayra is a more futuristic looking car than this. But who knows, maybe with a Cinque/BC style or a track focused R variant of the Utopia might change my opinion.

It reminds me of those camo prototype cars with the weird aero, but this went straight to production.

It's pretty clear to me that GA Aircraft of the 1950s were the principal inspiration for the design of both the exterior and interior. Think Beechcraft Twin Bonanza.

I like the analog look of the interior instead of those flat screens in all of the new vehicles... Timeless design!!!
