\"\"<\/a>In 2022, the Pininfarina Battista<\/a> set a series of performance world records at its test base in Nard\u00f2, Italy. Battista\u2019s unique launch control technology contributes to Formula 1 car-beating acceleration, with 0-60 mph achieved in 1.79s, 0-100km\/h completed in 1.86s, 0-120 mph executed in 4.49s and 0-200 km\/h obliterated in just 4.75 seconds. Official tests also confirmed Battista achieves the shortest stopping distance of any electric vehicle in the world, completing 100-0 km\/h in just 31 meters.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now, the world\u2019s fastest accelerating production car broke a series of speed records at India\u2019s Natrax<\/a> test facility in February. The pure-electric Battista by Automobili Pininfarina secured its place as the fastest in the world to complete the \u00bc mile and \u00bd mile sprints, in doing so taking the title of fastest road-legal car ever on Indian soil.<\/p>\n

With VBOX data systems in place to verify Battista\u2019s incredible performance, the \u00bc mile time of 8.55 seconds and \u00bd mile result of 13.38 seconds were the highlights of a flurry of remarkable results for Automobili Pininfarina\u2019s first luxury electric car. With Autocar India\u2019s Hormazd Sorabjee and Renuka Kirpalani joining the Italian brand\u2019s Performance, Test and Validation Team including Development Driver Stefano Costa at the event, the aim was to showcase the exceptional performance accessible to all Battista owners and drivers.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Battista top speed test was undertaken with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires fitted. In this test, Hormazd Sorabjee secured with ease a top speed of 358.03km\/h on track \u2013 eclipsing the previous top speed record in India of 332km\/h, which was also held by Autocar India. Renuka Kirpalani went on to clock 357.10km\/h, setting the record for the fastest Indian female driver in the world. Both these top speed records were validated by the Federation of Motor Sports Clubs of India (FMSCI), the Indian sporting body affiliated to the FIA.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2R tire then fitted for acceleration tests, Battista registered two new production car world records for sprints over \u00bc and \u00bd mile distances. Both sets of Michelin tires are available to order with Battista at the point of purchase.<\/p>\n

The Battista produces over 1,900 hp and 2,340 Nm torque, with power distributed across all four wheels via four motors and through a unique, sophisticated torque vectoring system tuned by Automobili Pininfarina<\/a>\u2019s engineers at the luxury carmaker\u2019s development centre in Italy.<\/p>\n

Paolo Dellach\u00e0, Automobili Pininfarina CEO said: \u201cWe were very proud to bring Battista to India for the first time. Collaborative events there with our shareholder Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd were delivered at a significant time for Automobili Pininfarina. In 2022 we began production of Battista at our new Atelier facility in Italy, with deliveries to customers worldwide starting soon after.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cThis year, new Battista owners are excited to explore the unprecedented performance of this design and engineering masterpiece. These speed records \u2013 and independent tests \u2013 have validated our ambition to create a new generation of hyper and luxury car leading with Battista, whereby electric power delivers performance that is simply unachievable in the world of ICE powertrains.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFor Hormazd and his Autocar India team to showcase what is possible with Battista in their hands is hugely important. We conceived Battista as a hyper GT \u2013 a special blend of beautiful design and attention to detail synonymous with the Pininfarina brand, allied to extreme electrified performance and a level of vehicle dynamics which sets a new benchmark among hypercars. In these tests Battista has shown that record-breaking performance is there to be enjoyed by every driver on road or track.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
