This is the Pininfarina Battista and it’s a serious fully electric hypercar. The Battista has unbelievable power, very low production numbers, and a massive price tag. Today I’m reviewing this Pininfarina Battista and I’ll show you the many quirks and features. I’m also going to get behind the wheel and show you what it’s like to drive.
The Battista is powered by a 120 kW⋅h battery pack supplied by Rimac Automobili. The car has four individual motors, each placed at a wheel, and they have a combined power output of 1400 kW and 2300 N⋅m of torque. The car has a carbon fibre monocoque chassis with aluminium crash structures at the front and rear. Most of the body panels are also built from the same material resulting in a low mass. The car has 21″ rims in Pirelli P Zero Corsa tyres.

The interior of the car is customisable according to the customer’s specifications. A carbon fibre steering wheel is flanked by two large screens on either side, displaying vital data to the driver. The interior is upholstered in leather. The car is claimed by the manufacturer to generate cabin driving sound using acoustics. The battery pack is T-shaped and is placed so that it lies in the central tunnel and behind the seats. Once fully charged, the battery pack allows the car to have a range of 450 km.
