HISTORICAL INGENUITY

For more than eight decades Pininfarina has been making history, regularly breaking the mold and driving automobile design forward. It achieved this again in 2019 with its first self-branded, all-electric car. The Battista is pushing boundaries in the industry, proving the incredible potential of electric vehicles - yet another testament to the extraordinary legacy of Pininfarina. After waiting decades to make such a massive move, Pininfarina pivoted from designer to manufacturer with as loud a bang as possible, producing a vehicle that is nothing short of pure ingenuity. The Pininfarina Battista.

THE WORLDS FIRST PURE ELECTRIC LUXURY HYPER GT

As the automotive world addresses the transition from the internal combustion engine to electrification, Automobili Pininfarina launches as a purely electric car brand delivering only beautiful, exciting and highly desirable luxury cars. Over the next two decades, electrification will revolutionize car design, car ownership, and even the set-up of car companies. But from 2020, the Battista will immediately set new standards and inspire true love for EVs as the world's first luxury electric hyper GT.

WRITING ITS OWN PAGE IN AUTOMOTIVE HISTORY BOOKS

The Battista will be the most powerful car ever designed and built in Italy and it will deliver a level of performance that is unachievable today in any road-legal sports car featuring internal combustion engine technology. Faster than a current Formula 1 race car in its 0 -100 km/h sub-two second sprint, and with 1,900 hp and 2,300 Nm torque on tap, the Battista will combine extreme engineering and technology in a zero emissions package. The Battista's 120 kWh battery provides power to four electric motors - one at each wheel - with a simulated WLTP range of over 500 km (310 miles) on a single charge. No more than 150 Battistas will be individually hand-crafted at the Pininfarina SpA atelier in Cambiano, Italy.

ELEGANT, CLEAN, AND PURE

The new pure-electric Battista added to its growing list of awards by winning the prestigious Design Award at the exclusive Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este in Lake Como, Italy. Automobili Pininfarina's new hyper GT made its European public debut in production-ready form at the prestigious event, between 1-3 October 2021. The Villa d'Este Battista was made to a unique specification - like every example of the pure-electric hyper GT - and finished in exquisite Verde Paradiso exterior paintwork with a luxurious tan leather interior. The Battista is the most powerful car ever designed and built in Italy and it will deliver a level of performance that is unachievable today in any road-legal sports car featuring internal combustion engine technology. Faster than a current Formula 1 race car in its 0 -100 km/h sub-two second sprint, and with 1,900 hp and 2,300 Nm torque on tap, the Battista will combine extreme engineering and technology in a zero emissions package. No more than 150 Battistas will be hand-crafted in Italy and allocated equally between the regions of North America, Europe and Middle East/Asia.
