​​Pininfarina Battista

When the Pininfarina Battista was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2019, it was touted as the first fully-electric hypercar. Having been teased with bits and pieces up to that point, the Battista would finally secure its place in history as the first complete amalgamation of a zero-emissions hypercar.

Like the car itself, delivery of the first examples are coming in faster than you can blink, with customers told to expect their cars no later than the third quarter of 2020. Before we know it, an automobile which could revolutionize the way we travel will be taking center stage.

The Pininfarina Battista draws power from its four electric motors – one for each wheel, also making it AWD – which in combination, produce up to a mind-boggling 1,900-horsepower (or 1,400 kW). Thanks to its 120kWh battery (which is rated 20kWh higher than Tesla’s Model X and Model S), the car is able to generate 1,696 lb-ft of torque (the equivalent of 2,300 Nm), with Pininfarina claiming 0-60 mph is possible in less than 2 seconds. A top speed of 217 mph is what is currently theorized. The aforementioned figures by these accounts, makes it faster than a Formula 1 race car.
