Stepping into the limelight, the Alisea is a testament to the creative prowess of the Master Course students at IED in Torino. Eschewing the traditional design elements seen in high-performance vehicles, the Alisea boasts a refreshingly clean aesthetic, with smooth surfaces taking precedence over large vents and scoops. Despite the absence of these customary features, the concept retains its fiery spirit with an AMG V12 engine tucked behind the seats, ensuring that the Alisea remains true to its supercar roots.
Drawing inspiration from the legendary Zonda, the Alisea stands as a symbol of innovation and evolution. Occupying a road space akin to its predecessor, the Alisea’s dimensions mirror those of the Zonda, with a length of 4 520 mm and a wheelbase of 2 795 mm. However, a closer look reveals subtle enhancements, with the roofline sitting 75 mm lower to the ground, exuding an air of agility and dynamism.

Embodying the spirit of endurance racing, the Alisea’s bubble canopy harks back to the Group C racers of the 1980s, albeit with a modern twist. The sleek curves and organic lines breathe new life into Pagani’s iconic quad headlight design, while the slimmed-down A-pillar mirrors add a touch of sophistication to the overall aesthetic. Not to be outdone, giant fender peaks at each corner accentuate Alisea’s low-slung profile, leading the eye towards the commanding rear end.
At the heart of the Alisea lies a space-rocket-style exhaust setup, a nod to Pagani’s illustrious design heritage. With the exhaust exiting through the middle of the tail, the Alisea exudes an aura of power and performance, cementing its status as a true Pagani masterpiece.
The Pagani Alisea concept serves as a fitting tribute to 25 years of automotive excellence, blending cutting-edge design with timeless elegance. Would this V12-powered behemoth be a fitting production tribute to the iconic model that started it all for Pagani?
