The stunning Pininfarina Battista makes its U.K. debut as the city launches its latest battle against pollution through its Ultra Low Emissions Zone (ULEZ). But the most powerful car to be designed and built in Italy when it goes into production next year will offer future free and unrestricted access to central London.

With first deliveries due in late 2020, just a few months before the ULEZ extends to the whole of Greater London in 2021, the Battista's electric powertrain provides extraordinary performance within a dramatic body that is pure hypercar - a true, new poster car for the EV generation.

With its beautifully elegant design by the world-famous Pininfarina automotive styling studios in Italy, a single-charge range targeting 483km for a non-stop drive from London to Paris, and a sprint to 100km/h in less than two seconds - faster than a Formula One car - the Battista represents a new reality for electric car desirability before ultra-low emissions moves to zero emissions regulation.
