- The Zonda Cervino began life as a Pagani Roadster S.
- Pagani’s Unico division has fitted new body panels and paint.
- The car likely retains its 7.4-litre naturally aspirated V12.
The Pagani Zonda may have officially reached the end of its all-new production life, but apparently nobody told the owners.
The latest proof is the Zonda Cervino, a newly reworked one-off created through Pagani’s Unico division.
The car began life as a Zonda Roadster S, later became the Oliver Evolution Roadster, and has now been transformed again with fresh bodywork, a new colour scheme and a calmer, more polished look.
From Oliver to Cervino
This car has already had more identities than most supercars get owners.
Around five years ago, it was rebuilt from the ground up as the Zonda Oliver Evolution Roadster, wearing matte silver paint, exposed carbon-fibre detailing and a particularly dramatic aero package.
After being sold last year, it was sent back to Pagani for another makeover. The result is the Cervino, which trades some of the Oliver’s wildness for a cleaner, more elegant finish.
All exterior panels are new and painted in light blue. The front end gets smaller canards, a different bonnet and new wheels, while the rear has seen the biggest change. The previous double-stacked rear wing has been replaced by a smaller single item, though “small” is doing some heavy lifting on a Zonda.
Still very much a Zonda
Some familiar details remain, including the Cinque-inspired roof scoop and shark fin. That means the Cervino still carries the track-bred visual punch expected of a late-life bespoke Zonda, just without looking quite so determined to win an aero argument in the car park.
Inside, Pagani has gone for a white and blue leather cabin covering the seats, door panels and dashboard. The three-spoke steering wheel has also been retrimmed in blue leather and finished with wooden accents.
V12 likely carries over
Pagani has not officially disclosed the Cervino’s full mechanical specification. However, it is likely to retain the engine fitted during its Oliver Evolution Roadster conversion.
That would mean Pagani’s optional 7.4-litre naturally aspirated V12, a bored-out version of the regular 7.3-litre unit designed to deliver extra torque.
For most carmakers, “final edition” usually means final. For Pagani and the Zonda, it seems to mean something closer to “see you after the next owner’s brief.”
