Pininfarina has just unveiled its new collection of 100% electric vehicles. The source of inspiration for this new series? None other than Bruce Wayne, the alter ego of the legendary DC character, Batman. In the comic books and films derived from these works, the character of Bruce Wayne consistently appears in extraordinary vehicles, distinguished as much by their performance as by their appearance. Automobili Pininfarina identifies with the values and desires of this mythical character: a visionary entrepreneur constantly in search of innovation and the development of groundbreaking technologies. This shared vision, the Italian car brand brings to life through four new models paying homage to this legendary character: the B95 hyper Barchetta and the Battista hyper GT, available in two versions.
"Each of the finishes of these two unique models, named Gotham and Dark Knight, have been selected to complement the luxurious lifestyle of this pop culture icon," commented the brand's teams. A collaboration supported and developed by Wayne Enterprises, a brand developed by Warner Bros, which will also be responsible for selling these vehicles through the website BruceWayneX.com. Combining meticulous work on both performance and design, this project was a true dream come true for the Pininfarina teams, as confessed by Dave Amantea, the brand's chief designer, "Designing an electric hypercar inspired by Bruce Wayne was the dream mission for our team, allowing us full creative freedom and letting us imagine ourselves in the shoes of Bruce Wayne.
These two exclusivities for these two hypercars now represent the ultimate vehicle for the man behind the world's most famous mask." Two finishes to choose from for the two electric vehicles, each carrying a unique identity and differing in the Battista and the B95. Among the notable details of the Gotham, there is a desire to highlight the sophisticated character of this iconic figure through details in the workmanship and stitching of the leather, as well as the use of Argento Vittorio gloss paint. The Dark Knight, on the other hand, emphasizes technological elements. The interior of black leather complements the bodywork in Nero Profondo gloss paint. In terms of performance, the four cars are powered by a 120kWh lithium battery and a motor with a power of 1'900 hp.
