Automobili Pininfarina has unveiled a special edition Battista, named Cinquantacinque, which showcases a striking Blu Savoia Gloss exterior and Bianco Sestriere Gloss roof. This design is a nod to the 1955 Lancia Florida show car. The name ‘Cinquantacinque’ means ’55’ in Italian and honors the timeless design of the classic car by Pininfarina.nnThe elegant Lancia Florida was not only designed but also favored by Battista ‘Pinin’ Farina himself, who later lent his name to what is now known as Italy’s fastest and most powerful road car. A rare sight, this one-of-a-kind Battista Cinquantacinque was recently photographed alongside one of just three existing Lancia Florida sedans.nnWhen crafting the PURA Vision design concept – which will influence all future Automobili Pininfarina models – designers drew inspiration from the 1955 Lancia Florida. The unique vehicle features bespoke Mahagoni upholstery (Poltrona Frau Heritage Leather) and carries distinct inscriptions that highlight its lineage.nnPowered by four electric motors with a robust 120 kWh battery pack, each Battista delivers an impressive 1,900hp and 2,340Nm of torque. It boasts remarkable performance capabilities such as accelerating from 0-100 kph in under two seconds with up to a 476 km driving range on full charge.nnThe debut of the Battista Cinquantacinque will take place in Tokyo where it will be introduced to clients through SKY GROUP as part of Automobili Pininfarina’s global expansion strategy. Clients can expect personalized experiences ensuring their vehicles are tailored expressions of individual style.nnDave Amantea, Chief Design Officer at Automobili Pininfarina commented on how designing this car allowed them to pay homage to their heritage while showcasing Farina’s visionary color combination seen on the original Lancia Florida from the fifties. He mentioned that these elements were instrumental in creating PURA Vision’s unique look for future models.nnThe iconic sedan influenced key aspects like rear-opening doors without B pillars leading directly into Lounge Doors featured on PURA Vision offering easy access within its spacious interior layout.nnAutomobili Pininfarina prides itself on delivering hand-crafted masterpieces reflecting clients’ personalities inspired by their artisans’ craftsmanship embodying pure Italian luxury experience through bespoke customization options for every client worldwide.n nFor further information or press inquiries contact Duncan Forrester or Akira Shinonuma via email provided below:nnDuncan ForresternChief Communications Officernd.forrester@automobili-pininfarina.comnnAkira ShinonumanCommunications Managerna.shinonuma@automobili-pininfarina.comnnMore details about Automobili Pininfarina can be found at automobili-pininfarina.com/media-hub/press-releases/.nnEditorial Note:nBased out of Cambiano with offices in Munich, Automobili Pininfarina combines experienced automotive executives from premium brands focusing on designing experiences for taste makers globally following their PURA philosophy blending tradition with modern technology across all production cars including upcoming models after Battista – Italy’s most potent sports car built entirely by hand featuring zero emissions thanks to advanced engineering technologies allowing unparalleled performance exceeding current Formula One race cars powered solely through an innovative electric powertrain system limited to just 150 units crafted meticulously at their Atelier facility.
