This red carbon-bodied Battista celebrates Pininfarina’s 95th anniversary

Is this the last Battista hypercar? Pininfarina only mentions it as being the "final edition", and boy is it some edition. It celebrates the famed Italian design house's 95th anniversary, and is simply called the ‘Novantacinque’.

Looks simply glorious, too. Its exposed carbon body panels have been dunked in a big pot of ‘Rosso Gloss’ paint - "a colour deeply rooted in Italian culture", apparently - while a series of gold stripes run along the lower sections of its body. The underside of the split-tail rear wing receives even more gold.

Those five-spoke ‘Iconico’ alloys are supposedly finished in "Precision Polished Colourless" which definitely look like the colour silver. They also gain brushed aluminium accents and wear black calipers.

The 'Pilota' seats are clad in both black Alcantara and black leather, with duotone black and gold stitching. You’ll spot a few commemorative ‘95’ logos in here, with finishing touches including machined aluminium rotary dials and bits of carbon satin trim.

This celebratory edition doesn't celebrate any more power, though none is needed. The Battista's quad-motor powertrain - as seen in its Rimac Nevera sibling - still delivers a hilarious 1,874bhp/1,696lb ft of torque to all four wheels. In short, it means this thing gets from 0-62mph in around two seconds, and from 0-186mph in 12s. Flat out, you’ll hit 217mph.

If you can get your hands on one, that is. Only 150 of these hyperthings were ever allocated, and of this Novantacinque, Pininfarina said: "Its rarity is underscored by its singular commission and the conclusion of Battista production at the end of this year, with only a limited number ever built.

"As the final edition, the Novantacinque marks a pivotal milestone in Automobili Pininfarina’s history."
