Automobili Pininfarina's new Battista Edizione Nino Farina honours the first F1 world champion 🏁
► Designed to honour racing driver Giuseppe ‘Nino’ FarinaAutomobili Pininfarina has unveiled a new special edition of its Battista electric hypercar: the Edizione Nino Farina. The new edition, of which just five will be made to this specification, is designed to honour Giuseppe ‘Nino’ Farina – nephew of Battista ‘Pinin’ Farina and the first-ever Formula One world champion.
‘He was really brave, and really skilled as a racing driver,’ says Amantea, speaking of Nino, ‘but he also was a classic gentleman driver. He was also very clever, and became a doctor during the Second World War. We decided that this story should take a better spot in our history – and it gave us the chance to realise an incredible story that our customers are looking for.
It will have a distinct sound though. Pininfarina says the driver will be able to define their bespoke sound settings – though there won’t be any artificial sound amplification. Key factors in this signature sound will be the electric motors, air flow, HVAC system, and resonance of the carbon monocoque.
All models will run on huge 21-inch rims smeared in Pirelli P-Zero rubber, and carbon-ceramic 6-piston brakes on the front and rear axles will get the Battista stopped. As this is still an EV, those brakes allow for energy recovery, eking out and reclaiming as much energy as possible.
