Pagani Zonda (20th Anniversary) at Geneva Motor Show 2019

A the latest geneva Motor Show 2019 Pagani showed Zonda to mark a 20th anniversary since the car first premiere at the same place.

Twenty years have elapsed since that 1999 Geneva Auto Show when the world discovered a Zonda, the C12, for the very first time. A futuristic and revolutionary car in some respect, with the glass roof and the deep, curved screen, one had the impression of sitting in the pointy end of a fighter jet; purely designed to convey strong emotions from the very first moment it was encountered.
Immediately identified as a clear break from the automotive establishment at the time, so much so, as to deserve the new name of hypercar on purpose, the Pagani Zonda has easily become one of the most celebrated cars over the last 20 years. Each of its different variants being recognized with many important awards and setting speed records on some of the most challenging race circuits in the world.
The tale of this supercar is pure emotion: the project took shape in the late ‘90s; a time of critical economic changes and new global regulations. In such a scenario, several difficulties of a shrinking market play against the rise of new initiatives. Supporting heavy investments for the production of relatively few examples of a car was not only an extreme challenge, but also requires an act of courage. It is against this background that the Zonda was born from the fusion of nerve, sacrifice, and passion; this marks the beginning of the Pagani Automobili adventure in the automotive world, after 9 years of profound in-depth, innovative studies and refinement.
