A masterpiece on four wheels: A unique piece for eternity
Cambiàno / Turin, June 2025 - Automobili Pininfarina SpA has unveiled an absolutely unique model to mark the 95th anniversary of the traditional design company Pininfarina: the Battista Novantacinque. This one-off not only crowns the history of the electric Hyper-GT Battista - it also marks the last customized model before the end of production of the limited series at the end of 2025.
The one-off was presented as part of a special exhibition at the Museo Nazionale dell'Automobile (MAUTO) in Turin - a highly symbolic location, as Turin is the birthplace of Pininfarina.
Design: A tribute to 95 years of Italian design
The Novantacinque is a fusion of past and future. Its body is finished in the exclusive Exposed Signature Carbon Tinted Rosso Gloss, a rich dark red that embodies speed, passion and emotion. The outer skin is finished in Nero Torino Gloss and PURA Vision Gold Paint Gloss - the latter is reminiscent of classic Italian elegance.
A filigree gold pinstripe from the Furiosa package runs across the vehicle, while the "Novantacinque" engraving on the rear wing clearly identifies this unique vehicle.
The aerodynamically shaped Iconico rims with a precision finish and black accents round off the design. Black brake callipers and brushed aluminum details provide elegant contrasts to the dominant lines.
Interior: Tailor-made luxury down to the last detail
The same attention to detail is reflected in the interior: the Pilota seats are finished in black leather and black Alcantara and coordinated with two-tone gold and black stitching. The golden "95" anniversary logo is embroidered into the knee pads - a subtle reference to the historic event.
Further highlights:
Exposed Signature Carbon Satin cladding
Gold-anodized aluminium applications
Newly designed, CNC-milled aluminum knobs
Individually designed door and chassis panels
Every touch point - from the steering wheel to the floor mats - was developed and implemented exclusively for this vehicle.
CEO statement: A tribute to the past, present and future
Paolo Dellachà, CEO of Automobili Pininfarina, says:
"The Battista Novantacinque is the ultimate symbol of our design and engineering skills. It represents 95 years of excellence, tailor-made emotion and technological vision. As the last model in the Battista range, it is an icon for generations to come."

Technical basis: the most powerful vehicle ever built in Italy
Despite the focus on design, the Battista also remains a technical marvel:
1,900 hp / 2,340 Nm torque
0-100 km/h in under 2 seconds
Four electric motors (one per wheel)
120 kWh battery / up to 476 km range (WLTP)
Production is carried out entirely by hand in the workshop in Cambiano. Only 150 vehicles worldwide - including all special models - are built. The Novantacinque marks the end of the Battista era - the final chapter could not be written in more style.
Conclusion
The Battista Novantacinque is far more than just an electric Hypercar. It is a sculpture on wheels, a collector's item with cultural depth and technological sophistication. The only one of its kind, it is not just a tribute to 95 years of design history, but a symbol of what the future of Italian automotive art can be - "Dream Cars, Made Real".
