Incredible Pininfarina Battista to make debut at #77MM!

27th March 2019

The most powerful Italian car of all time is set to star at the 77^th Members’ Meeting as the Pininfarina Battista makes its UK debut at Goodwood on April 6^th/7^th

The Members’ Meeting will provide the first opportunity for anyone to see the 1,900bhp hyper performance GT outside of the Geneva Motor Show, where the Battista was launched earlier in March.

Boasting speeds on par with current Formula 1 racing machines, the Battista will be furnished with a low-mounted 120kWh liquid-cooled, lithium-ion battery, powering four electric motors – one for each wheel. The result of which produces a combined output of almost 1,900bhp and an astounding 2,300Nm (1,702lb ft) of torque.

With a 0-62mph time under two seconds, and a 0-186mph time of just 12 seconds, the Battista rockets off the line on its way to a top speed of 217mph.

Accompanying the Battista will be Nick Heidfeld, Automobili Pininfarina’s Test and Development Driver and holder of the record for the fastest Goodwood hill climb, alongside Rene Wollmann, the brand’s Programme Director Sportscars, who moves to Automobili Pininfarina from Mercedes where he was responsible for development of the Mercedes-AMG Project One.

Only 150 examples of the Battista will be produced, with 50 each going to the USA, Europe and the Middle East respectively, so the Members’ Meeting provides the perfect opportunity to see this incredibly sought-after hypercar.

Make sure you don’t miss your chance to see the Battista, Pininfarina’s first road car in its 90-year history, at the 77th Members’ Meeting in April.

Saturday and weekend tickets for the 77th Members’ Meeting have now sold out, however, the last remaining Sunday tickets are still available. Tickets can be purchased by Members and Fellows of the Goodwood Road Racing Club (GRRC). To find out about joining the GRRC Fellowship, click here.
