FIRST DRIVE: Pagani Utopia - 864bhp V12 Hypercar Or Art? 

Only Pagani’s third ever car, Zonda, Huayra or this?

this feels like a Retro-Futurism aesthetic that 50's - 70's people thinks what would the future would look like. A car from a lost future

THIS is how you do a hypercar. Exquisite.

Not that I could ever in my wildest imagination afford one or fit in one for that matter, but, this car is incredible. It’s nice to see a super car that isn’t completely electronic and computerised. Something about a clutch and a manual transmission with actual dials and buttons is a thing of beauty

"it's not about driving performance but the performance of driving" PERFECTLY said and the reason i love pagani

This guy is such a good reviewer, he is holding it down at Top Gear for sure

Been to the factory and toured the production process, it’s got cobble floor and brick walls with trees etc to mimic outdoors…it’s so quiet and peaceful, everything you see looks beautiful. Workers are encouraged to take the day off if they’re stressed with personal issues. Horacio is a genius, what he and his immensely skilled team create is so inspiring.

Who is missing Jeremy Clarkson?

When he pressed start, I love how the gauges tick backwards then forward!

I mean, you can put that in a gallery! Unbelievable, I’m truly stunned🤩🤩🤩

The Pagani Utopia looks like a love child of the Zonda and Huayra. At first I wasn't sure I liked its design but over time it has grown on me and now I think it's pretty good. Also it has a manual gearbox!

Pagani did such a good job on this car. The evolution from the huraya to this is car art at its best. The angle from the back over the exhaust and you see the rainwater stays on the engine cover and not floating away gives me butterflies in my belly. The effort and details makes it, from my point of view, the most beautyful car design a.t.m. on road. And i hope for a ling time. Like bugatti in the old times...

I am so happy to have been alive when pagani was building cars I was in Singapore one time just before the gran Prix and got to see a zonda r and sneak a touch in I didn’t think I would see one let alone touch one and photograph it 😍😍😍 Hopefully I may get there again this year and see one of these

I was never going to drive a car that costs almost two million dollars in such atmospheric conditions and besides that is not mine, these guys are really brave.

"Look! its got a manual gearbox!" *shifts from 3rd to 6th and back to 3rd* 1:01 😂😂😂

Very cool to see it actually get out there, and show its full character. I was quite puzzled with it at launch, but also had a feeling Pagani were better designers than me, and thus, that it would grow on me, and take time to fully understand and appreciate. And it has, since then. Now even more, when it's being driven - the final part of the puzzle, you could say. Congratulations Pagani. 3 cars and 3 paradigm defining achievements, each in their own right, and each being decisively different from each other. Kudos.

From the thumbnail, this epitome of beauty and class stole my heart.❤❤

It is a work of art that also just happens to be a car. That cabin is to die for and I suspect that we'll never see that level of "mechanical" and tactile equipment in a car again. These days it's all screens, touch-pads and haptic feedback -- so clinical 😞

The amount of art in this car is insane, the interior it's LUXURY, the manual gearbox It's beautiful, I hope one day I can drive one of these!

I love the tactility of the interior features. Modern cars all have these mirror black touch buttons, but there is something special about the feedback and satisfaction of real buttons.

I have never heard a better guy to review cars . This guy doesn’t talk to loud or to much . He just gives you everything about the car. No stupid little comments. It’s a pleasure to listen to his reviews 👍

They might not be THE fastest or THE sharpest but they have something no other supercar manufacturers have... true artistry! I *desire* a Pagani like no other!

The design is just perfectly balanced. You have modern and classic and Pagani went right in the middle. You've got feminine lines or masculine lines and Pagani went right in the middle. It's got plenty of details yet it isnt chaotic. And it's lightweight and powerful. Beautifully done.

I wasn't sure on release, but now it's bedded in and in that colour in that lighting, It looks nuts, just amazing. Then add that lush interior, the switchgear, the manual gear box and no pathetic glare in your eyeline touchscreen (although it loses points for that lcd panel). Well, just magic.

Nothin else to expect from an Argentinean like Horacio. Fell in love with this car.

This thing has grown on me visually, it looks wild. Also I like this guy on Top Gear, he's quality

The way all the car blends together is amazing. The reviewer nailed it, its like looking into a mechanical watch, like a Grand Seiko Tourbillion. I wonder if Hammond is getting a go. Would love to see him review this.

I really love the backlights, among other things ofc, and how their design is inspired on jet engines and their movements. I mean, every tiny component of this beautiful car has its story and being aware of it makes every part even more intriguing!

Its not a car - its Art. Absolute state of Art. Perfect.

The curves of the cabin from the outside remind of a kind of 60's Le Mans style.

The light blue lighting on the dashboard is just magical!

Is like a "Patek Philippe" of the cars. Is the right way to do something that will stick over time.

This car literally is art in motion and will forever be timeless. Thank you Top Gear and thank you Pagani for making this MASTERPIECE! This car brings the art show every time it is road. BTW this guy has balls of steel to be giving this car the beans in this kind of weather. Color me impressed.

If Horacio Pagani was born in the 1800's he would've created the best and most exquisite pocket watch ever. People would cherish it for ever...

7:53 The way those tiny fog lamp illuminates to where you turn exactly like on our old vw polo haha

i dont want to take away form all the comments in the video, but its a Pagani, some things are impossible to describe however the "No and Yes" is the best and most accurate comment. That is why every Pagani is amazing. Its that AMG based v12 heart, my favorite engine and it is true to how it differentiates the car and the driving experience. Pagani takes all the design characteristics to perfection, he is a master of user experience, design and the combination of the two. It is for this reason that this car becomes artwork. We have a dealer near us in Greenwich CT. I have been lucky to meet Horatio once while he visited Miller Motorcars. He is a very calm and cool guy and his background is amazing. For me his innovation around Carbon fiber will always be in my top 5 of all automotive accomplishments.

That gear stick is a thing of beauty. Tbh the entire car is

Italy looks the most beautiful in a wet, rainy autumn day. The "Italy" English and Americans keep talking about is basically Sicily, Sardinia and Campania.

When I was a young lad, my favorite car was the Zonda S, then in my teens, the Huayra BC, and now, as an adult, the Utopia... Horacio has genuinely demonstrated his understanding of art on wheels

First thing TG: I could watch out Videos hours and hours...its like Documentary of Art...love it and well done!!

I didn’t like it at first, I now think this is one of the prettiest car on the road alongside the Roma. Spectacular.

The open transmission mechanism reminds me of the Spyker C8, another car that was an art piece of design 😊

The rainy weather makes it incredible to watch!

Thanks for doing this car justice with your review. I have seen a different review, but your excitement really celebrates it for what it is!

Pagani are truly artists. That entire car is just stunning!

the obvious reminiscence of classic racing cars is just brilliant

It has a "Roaring 20s but futuristic" look to it. I love it

Haven't gotten lucky with the weather, looks amazing.

Zonda or bust. I do like the manual transmission on this. The Zonda was by far their most beautiful model.

It looks funky but also very bold and unique. The press pictures (as is a trend nowadays) made it look awkward, but in video it looks quite cool.

Beautiful car and such a well made video, subscribed!

I didn't believe it was possible to create a dull review of a Pagani. Kudos, you proved me wrong.

Those "Rearview Mirrors" is what I wanted to see this time. Rear air scoops is my 2nd favorite part.

Beautiful as always, Pagani knows style.

“Ooh some wheel spin” is a terrifying thing to say that giddy

Finally, some properly stylish filming and wonderful scenic reporting again after so many rather mediocre episodes... THIS is Top Gear and some proper Top Gear car... Cheers and keep up THIS level of quality...!

0:34 Watched that part way too many times. Stunning!

54 yrs old, favorite car the Ferrari 250 GTO. To me this car is a work of art and harks back to the great days of the 250 GTO. Externally I see this car as a masterpiece of engineering elegance. What a beautiful car.

This beauty of the car is just sublime. A veritable piece of automotive art. I love everything about the design. The attention to deatil is just unbelievable, especially the leather straps holding down the engine covers. Everything is warm and characterful about this car. Would love to see one in the flesh soon.

the zonda still looks better than all other paganis

that background soundtrack is quite dystopian!

Can't believe how happy it makes me to see a manual in a new car! Also this entire car is oozing vintage vibes and I love it!

At first i wasn't sure about the looks but now i love it

Great video production! Great review!

I think it's absolutely stunning. Making such intricate details all hang together as a cohesive whole is an incredible feat. An instant classic.

Italians make the world’s most beautiful and soul stirring automotive designs. So much elegance and passion. The flip side is the old adage is that their cars are as “fragile as spring ice”. Unreliable when compared to German Porsche counterparts. The UTOPIA is my dream car.

Definitely my favorite Pagani automobile so far. That thing is truly a piece of automotive ART! Even Bugatti would have been proud of Horacio's achievements. I think he and Bugatti would have been either rivals or great friends because they impassion their form of art into their automobiles. Horacio Pagani understands the art form as much as he understands the mechanics of the engine. Bugatti was a similar automotive visionary. Others were Marcel Pourtout, Iakov Saoutchik, Giuseppe Figoni, and in more modern times, I put Christian von Koenigsegg in this category although his artform is more modern and practical based on the aerodynamic needs of the vehicle. Pagani's artform is more flamboyant and extremely beautiful including the extraordinary interiors which are on a level above all other automobiles. Every component inside of Pagini's automobiles are a machined pieced of automotive art that look like they were hand crafted by the finest Swiss watch maker for the instruments and the finest leather and carpet craftsman's on the planet for the upholstery and interior elements. Either way, Pagani's automobiles are in the top few percent of the most beautiful automobiles of the modern age. When a car rolls off the showroom floor in brand new condition looks like it should be put on display as the centerpiece of the Petersen Automotive Museum, yeah, you know you have created something very special indeed! Congrats Horacio, you have created a masterpiece that undoubtedly will be viewed by millions of people far into the distant future because this will be inducted into a museum someday for sure for people to marvel at seeing what type of supercar machines could be driven by people on the road "way back then", no doubt long after our modes of transportation have long since changed and updated with the future. Year 2124, at the Barrett Jackson Commemorative Auto Auction, one hundred years into the future. This car on the block for sale........"May the bidding start at ONE BILLION!"

Old Zonda looks so better

I love the barber shop drivers chair. Look smooth and comfortable.

Some of the best cinematography Top Gear has ever done. Beautiful car, beautiful scenes.

I'm loving his review style! He brought his uniqueness. 👍🏻

This car reminds me of the Isdera Commendatore 112i, also with Mercedes DNA.

Some beautiful shots in this video.

I love the fact that this car looks like it could’ve been designed in the 1930’s or 100 years in the future. Just a stunning car

These will never go down in value. Stunning

Italians🇮🇹 and hypercars... it's something like Renaissance, a work of art. Ettore Bugatti was Italian, Enzo Ferrari, Ferruccio Lamborghini, Horatio Pagani has Italian heritage... Simply Wow!!! Same talking about motorbikes.

I want the testarossa, but given the pagani treatment. or a 348

Non ci sono parole per descrivere quanto sia bella bella questa opera d arte follemente bella ogni cosa si guardi ti manda il cervello fuori di testa , quesi cerchi sono wow tutto tutto oltraggiosamente bello armonioso sinuoso equilibrato calibrato , grazie Orazio per rendere il mondo un posto migliore ❤

I wish, I just wish if Richard Hammond did this review - Because I am sure you all might have seen the Zonda and Huayra review for the millionth time. Zonda - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zIoFnfMhq_Y.html Huayra - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--_bakHYcD9o.html Enjoy!

"Believe it or not, this is Italy, we hjust haven't gotten lucky with the Weather today" Most British Comment ever, because the Northern Half of Italy is literally like the Weather we got here in the German Bavarian Alps haha. A lot of People think of Italy and think of nice sunny Weather but that couldn't be further from the Truth! That said, i still don't know what to think of t he Pagani Utopia, it looks soooo much like a Huayra, but i guess that's because i experienced the Release of the Zonda and then the Release of the Huayra and they were so different. Either way Pagani is amazing and i hope they will keep going and still keep sourcing their V12s from Mercedes-Benz AMG because it's the perfect Fit for that Car! Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps

I am glad someone is still making an analog car. Truly beautiful.

I really love Pagani more and more...and to see how the dna goes again from zonda to huyare to now the utopia...is perfect...its master pieces 🤤🤤

Work of art Zonda is my favorite though❤❤❤

8:57 what an unreal transition

Artistry and engineering fused together like no other. I love it!

So so beautiful. The craftmanship behind

It looks 10 times better than a T50, but then it is Italian!

Working piece of art❤️🔥

I couldn't dig it when I first seen it, but after months it just grew and grew to be one of my all time favorite art pieces.

On the top of The wing mirror brackets there is a circular metal bracket with 4 screws, making it look like the exhaust

Sublime. And yet, I'd still prefer a Zonda (in "R" specification, or maybe the Tricolore... Or any one of the 6,981 limited edition models mfg towards the "end" of the run)

Designing a car to two-tone with a blacked-out roof and then painting the press car all one colour... was an interesting choice. I'm not sold on how the front looks either. But I'm sure they'll sell a few. Pagani values only seem to go up, never down.

YES, YES, YES for PoV shots. Perfect camera angle

Utterly beautiful and what an experience. In a segment all on its own.

The Monteverdi, with its blend of Swiss precision and Italian elegance, stands as a testament to the enduring allure of classic craftsmanship. Unlike the Pagani Utopia, which seems to cater to the flashy tastes of the nouveau riche, a Monteverdi exudes the kind of understated luxury that is synonymous with old wealth. It’s a vehicle that doesn’t need to boast about its capabilities or price tag; its poise and grace are enough to convey its storied heritage and the refined taste of its owner.

MY FAVOURITE 😊 🤩 PAGANI EVER ....!!! INFACT ONE OF THE MOST AUTHENTIC CAR ...I HAVE EVER SEEN !

the car reminds of "bioshock"-esque retro mechanical technology and beauty, especially with that hauntingly beautiful gearbox. Exquisite with a unique identity.

Incredible and gorgeous. Has a retro mix with modern look about it. Manual gearbox too 🙏. So many amazing cars coming out. Aston Valkyrie, Gordon Murray T.50 to name a few.

Mechanical perfection as usual. But I can't be the only one to think that face is not attractive compared to the Huayra or Zonda?

1 minute ago is crazy
