No electric car from Pagani for a while

Battery packs needs to get lighter

Everyone is building electric cars, but not Pagani. Not yet, anyway. And the reason is weight. The company has been developing an electric hypercar for the past five years, but it's not ready yet and it will take some time. They simply want the technology to advance a little further and make battery packs lighter, otherwise they don't want to be involved.

Christopher Pagani, the founder Horacio Pagani's son, said the following in an interview:

"Our goal is to create something that has to be lightweight. Looking at Pagani, what you see that is common with all the vehicles that we produce, they have to be lightweight. You have to have a special feeling driving it, which sometimes you can call ‘fun’. You can call it pleasure. But the weight is definitely our first question mark. So probably, nowadays with the existing technology, we cannot create the Pagani the way that we would like to do."

Pagani will continue to use Mercedes' twin-turbocharged V12 engines in their models until at least 2035.
