Review: The Pininfarina Battista

Where to begin with the Pininfarina Battista? It’s a model that marks the establishing of Automobili Pininfarina as a new car company in its own right, building on the heritage of the renowned design house.

As a result of Automobili Pininfarina deciding to make its own car with its own name on it, it decided that it needed to make a splash. And what could make more of a splash than an electric hypercar with 1900hp (1876bhp) that costs €1.98m? Call it £2 million depending on the exchange rate and local taxes.

Performance figures are equally startling. The 0-62mph time is under two seconds. The top speed is more than 217mph. And it'll do 0-186mph in under 12 seconds.

Under the skin, the Battista shares a reasonable amount with the Rimac Nevera. The two companies are 'frenemies', they say. Friendly rivals who helped develop the carbon fiber tub, the aluminum subframes that hold the suspension and the drivetrain.

The drivetrain is a 120kWh battery which drives an electric motor at each wheel - each rear motor makes 603bhp and each front one 335bhp. Any one of them alone would make reasonable progress. Put them all together and, well, you can expect fireworks.

Pininfarina will build just 150 Battistas over the next three years. This is one of the first. Our man Matt Prior tries it in both places it has to excel: on the road and the race track.

SennaTail 🇬🇧 ______________________________________ Here’s a render of the speedtail I made.. kind of interesting , i call it the SennaTail 😂 It has the Senna wing, wheels from the P1 LM, and the glass door from the Senna! I also gave it this unique color scheme that resembles an old F1 GTR LongTail! 🔥The speedtail will have a 250MPH topspeed and can do 0-186MPH in 12.8sec (which is insane) It makes 1,036HP from a petrol engine and hybrid powertrain to the rear wheels! The carbon monocoque weighs just 1,430kg 🔥 The actual Speedtail has A unique Velocity mode will help release more electric power and will lower the ride height to 35mm to aid in top speed runs. The super streamlined teardrop body, the speedtail is 202in long! Every body pane is carbon as well as the massive one piece clam shell! The read features INSANe active air fouls made out of flexible carbon fiber that blend into the body. The central driving position aids in the teardrop shape and the interior features 3 screens, an overhead control panel and curved glass! Each speedtail is produced by MSO so each will be custom to its owner! The carbon used a titanium weave like in Pagani’s to give a chrome shimmer to the paint. It will hit production late next year and will be delivered in 2020! The speedtail will be the speedtail, no GTR, no LT, no racing version, just speedtail! ________________________________________ EXTRA: Im in love 😍 ________________________________________ - - #McLaren #BP23 #V8 #Speedtail #F1 #UK #british #HyperGT #Senna #720s #GTR #carbon ||#powerful #performance #turbocharged #supercharged #advanced #SupercarsRevamped #Supercar #HyperCar #ItsWhiteNoise #CarLifeStyle #MadWhips #CupGang #Carstagram #BlackList #AmazingCars247 An #allcarnews post https://www.instagram.com/p/BpdLA5CH4-M/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nm1dy2vzpwfr

Der McLaren Speedtail wird der Nachfolger des McLaren F1. McLaren bezeichnet das Fahrzeug als Hyper-GT. Er soll in der Ultimate Series neben Senna und P1 parken. Trotz eines obszönen Preises ist er schon ausverkauft. http://bit.ly/2LQzk1B
