In this instance, Automobili Pininfarina relaunched seven years ago as an all-electric brand.<\/p>\n<p>Its modern lineup began with the 1,877 horsepower Battista hyper GT, which has since seen multiple limited edition variants, including the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2021\/02\/22\/most-expensive-electric-vehicles-on-the-planet\/#h-automobili-pininfarina-battista-anniversario\">$2.9 million Battista Anniversario<\/a>\u00a0and the Edizione\u2014a special BEV\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2023\/07\/10\/automobili-pininfarina-battista-edizione-hyper-gt-f1-nino-farina-ev-goodwood\/\">dedicated to the first-ever Formula 1 champion<\/a>\u00a0Nino Farina.<\/p>\n<p>This past April, Automobili Pininfarina unveiled a third variant<span>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2024\/04\/12\/automobili-pininfarina-one-of-a-kind-battista-reversario-hyper-gt-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the Battista Reversario<\/a>, which can accelerate 0-60 mph in 1.79 seconds. In addition to the Battista, Automobili Pininfarina has unveiled a second model,<\/span> the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2023\/08\/17\/automobili-pininfarina-new-topless-barchetta-b95-most-expensive-ev-on-planet\/\">B95 Barchetta<\/a>\u2014a topless hypercar that currently reigns as the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2022\/02\/01\/most-expensive-electric-vehicles-on-the-planet\/\">most expensive BEV on the planet<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>At $4.85 million a pop, Automobili Pininfarina\u2019s latest electric hypercar is definitely something that would catch the eye of Batman\u2019s alter-ego, billionaire playboy Bruce Wayne.<\/p>\n<p>DC Comics and Warner Brothers had similar thoughts and recruited Automobili Pininfarina to adapt the two models into four one-of-one EVs they intend to sell to the public. We got a look at <a href=\"https:\/\/electrek.co\/2024\/04\/30\/automobili-pininfarina-selling-1900-hp-electric-hypercars-inspired-by-batman\/\">the first images of the \u201cDark Knight\u201d and \u201cGotham\u201d versions<\/a> of the Battista and B95 this spring, but the public has not seen any of the bespoke models up close, at least until today.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-automobili-pininfarina-to-showoff-its-batman-hypercar\">Automobili Pininfarina to showoff its Batman hypercar<\/h2>\n<p>Per an update from Automobile Pininfarina today, the Batman-inspired B95 Gotham will be one of two of the brand\u2019s vehicles on display at <em>The Quail <\/em>during 2024\u2019s Monterey Car Week. This one-of-one hypercar was designed alongside Warner Brothers Discovery Global Consumer Products (WBDGCP) division under its new <em>Wayne Enterprises<\/em> brand of luxury products.<\/p>\n<p>From what we\u2019ve learned about the B95 Gotham so far, it is most certainly a luxury product. As you can see in the images above, it\u2019s quite a deviation from the Tumbler driven by Batman in Christopher Nolan\u2019s <em>Dark Knight<\/em> trilogy.<\/p>\n<p>The themed hypercar features two electronically adjustable aero screens, bodywork in Argento Vittorio gloss black, and unique black wheels with Titan calipers. The exterior\u2019s body, chassis plate, and door plates feature a Wayne Enterprises logo, also present in the Automobili Pininfarina B95 Gotham\u2019s interior, featuring a virtual assistant voice inspired by Batman\u2019s loyal butler, Alfred Pennyworth.
