For the past seven years, the designing of the Huayra has been a labor of love and I’m ecstatic to be working with the entire Need for Speed team to help share our creation with the world,” Pagini founder Horacio Pagani stated.

I’m amazed by how accurately they have been able to capture the look and, most importantly, the feel of the Huayra. Shift 2 will give enthusiasts all over the world the opportunity to get behind the wheel of the Huayra.”
