Pagani has put out the first official teaser for its latest hypercar, currently codenamed ‘C10’.
The video posted to Instagram features company founder Horacio Pagani working on sketches of the car.
Naturally, they don’t show much detail beyond the usual sort of gorgeous lines the ex-Lamborghini designer has made a name for himself with.

However, an abundance of leaks and spy shots means we’ve already seen more of the car than Pagani would perhaps like, judging by this teaser clip.
Photos taken by Instagram user tim_2712 earlier this week show a camouflaged C10 prototype.
Despite the camo wrap, it provides a pretty good view of the car’s lines from the side and rear.
Meanwhile, back in January, Varryx shared a leaked image of it from the front.
And although it’s somewhat blurry, it gives us the clearest view of it yet.
What do we know about the Pagani C10 so far?
For one thing, the C10 name isn’t a sure thing and is instead believed to be an internal designation.
C12 was the internal designation for the Zonda, so that adds up.
There’s no word on whether it will feature some form of electrification.

However, we do know that it will utilize the same 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12 from AMG that’s been used in the Huayra since 2012.
It’s expected that power will be turned up to around 850-880hp.
There’s also a high likelihood it will feature the option of a manual transmission as well.
Pagani found some Zonda owners wouldn’t purchase a Huayra due to its automated transmission, so that’s surely a must-have.
Current Pagani owners drove the decision to stick with V12 power rather than have it go fully electric as well, so the company is clearly listening to its customers.
But beyond this, the company is unsurprisingly quiet on the details before its official reveal on September 12 in Milan.
