Pininfarina Battista makes dynamic debut in California

The Automobili Pininfarina Battista has made its dynamic debut in production form on the roads of California.

The debut of the production-spec Battista will give clients in the U.S.A a first chance to experience its 1,900bhp performance and to take in its striking Black Exposed Signature Carbon bodywork - exquisitely crafted at Automobili Pininfarina's manufacturing facility in Cambiano, Italy, and created under the recently announced bespoke personalisation programme.

The exposed bodywork and precision polished Impulso forged aluminium alloy wheels are complemented by an exquisitely tailored interior featuring optional Pilota seats finished in sustainable black leather and quilted Iconica Blu Alcantara upholstery, with Iconica Blu contrast stitching, complemented by the Interior Jewellery Pack finished in brushed aluminium anodised in black.

The arrival of the first production-specification vehicle also gives clients a chance to hear the Battista for the first time, showcasing the unique soundscape that is currently in development for the world’s first pure-electric hyper GT. The individual sound is being tuned to create an emotional reaction for occupants and onlookers, ensuring the Battista will deliver an intoxicating experience for all the senses.

Following Automobili Pininfarina's 'Pure Sound' philosophy, the soundscape has a core frequency of 54Hz, an organic frequency that is a multiple of 432Hz - known as 'Verdi's A,' conceived by famous Italian composer Giuseppe Verdi.
