Final Chapter of a Legend

The Zonda Arrivederci represents a significant moment for Pagani, as it is the last Zonda ever to leave the company’s factory in San Cesario sul Panaro, Italy. While Pagani has previously claimed to have produced the “last” Zonda, this model is confirmed to be the final new Zonda assembled. Commissioned by American businessman and car collector Kris Singh, the Arrivederci was delivered last year but kept out of the public eye—until now. It is set to make its debut at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, as part of the Monterey Car Week.

Unique Design with Timeless Craftsmanship

Every detail of the Zonda Arrivederci exudes the artistry for which Pagani is known. The hypercar is finished in a unique Argento carbon fiber that is contrasted by deep blue and traditional carbon fiber elements. These finishes adorn various parts of the vehicle, from the front wheel arches to the hood, roof scoop, and massive rear wing. The car also features bespoke wheels inspired by the Huayra BC, with a six bi-spoke design painted to match the carbon fiber lacquer. Red brake calipers and carbon ceramic discs enhance the car’s aggressive aesthetic, while custom badging and silver taillight surrounds add further flair.

Inspired by the Zonda 760 Series

The Zonda Arrivederci carries several design cues from the Zonda 760 series but pushes the boundaries even further. The front splitter, twin canards, and pronounced side skirts are reminiscent of the 760 models, while the rear wing takes inspiration from the one-off Zonda JC. This wing sits higher than most Zonda wings and features distinctive end plates. Blue and red stripes run along the body, evoking the iconic Martini racing livery, adding both style and heritage.

Lavish Interior with Personal Touches

Inside, the Zonda Arrivederci blends luxury with bold styling choices. The cabin is upholstered in vivid red leather that contrasts against the carbon fiber trim and polished metal accents. A wooden steering wheel provides a touch of old-world elegance, while a plaque within the interior states, “Specially Handcrafted with Art and Passion For [Kris Singh],” highlighting the personal connection between the owner and the car. The attention to detail underscores Pagani’s commitment to creating bespoke vehicles tailored to each customer’s vision.

Performance: Power Meets Precision

Although specific performance data has not been officially released, the Zonda Arrivederci is believed to house a 7.3-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine. This powerhouse, sourced from AMG, likely produces 760 horsepower, consistent with the Zonda 760 series. The car’s lightweight carbon fiber construction and advanced aerodynamics suggest it’s designed for exceptional performance, even if it remains more of a collectible than a track machine.

The End of an Iconic Era

The debut of the Zonda Arrivederci is not just a celebration of one hypercar but the closing chapter of one of the most influential supercar lines in history. As it takes center stage at Monterey, it serves as a reminder of Pagani’s legacy in blending art and engineering. For both Pagani and Kris Singh, this moment is more than just the unveiling of a car; it’s a farewell to an era defined by uncompromising craftsmanship and passion.
