Pininfarina confirmed that its upcoming flagship electric hypercar, the 'Battista,' has entered the consumer production stages of development. This vehicle is one of the highest-performing electric vehicles ever made with roughly 1,874 horsepower and an engine that delivers 1,726 pounds per feet of torque.
The Pininfarina Battista boasts a 0-60mph acceleration time of under two seconds, which results in the Battista driving its first quarter-mile in just under nine seconds. These specifications solidify the Battista as a respectable electric hypercar in an industry dominated by gas and hydrogen-powered vehicles.
While Pininfarina's Battista hypercar has a set default price of $2.2 million USD, each consumer will end up paying a drastically different price as a result of Pininfarina's extensive customization options. According to the automaker, each customized vehicle requires a team of ten technicians to work over the course of ten weeks to ensure the quality and accuracy of the vehicle.
