Last year, during our drive of the Pininfarina Battista, CEO Paolo Dellachà confirmed that the brand would quickly expand its lineup beyond its first electric hypercar. During the last 12 months, the marque introduced its new PURA philosophy with a design study and now follows up with its second production vehicle, the B95.
The Pininfarina B95 is an open-top hypercar, inheriting the Battista’s quad electric motor setup, delivering an outrageous 1,877-horsepower output, but incorporating a vastly different aesthetic. Unlike the Battista, however, the Italian carmaker isn’t planning to build many B95s. Instead, it’ll produce just 10 of them, starting at around $4.8 million.
Quick Stats
| Motor | Four Permanent-Magnet Motors |
| Output | 1,877 Horsepower / 1,726 Pound-Feet |
| 0-60 MPH | Under 2 Seconds |
| Top Speed | Over 186 MPH |
| Base Price | $4.8 Million |
Peel back the B95’s bodywork, and underneath live many components that made the Battista a record-breaking hypercar. It draws power from the same 120-kilowatt-hour battery pack and counts on four electric motors, one for each wheel. As such, the B95 delivers the same 1,877 hp and 1,726 pound-feet output as its sibling.
Although Pininfarina has yet to confirm official performance figures, the carmaker has said the B95 will reach 60 mph in under two seconds and top out over 186 mph. Official range figures have yet to be published as well. However, the Battista can cover around 300 miles, so expect similar stats for the B95. Charging at 270 kilowatts, the B95 will jump from 20-80% charge in 25 minutes.
The most striking thing about the B95 is the way it looks. It incorporates an open-top design in the Barchetta style but aims to modernize it with new tech, which should help improve in-cabin comfort. A pair of electronically adjustable windscreens sit on the dashboard and help adjust the airflow over and around the car’s occupants. Color-matched helmets will be available, and given this car’s performance, it sounds like a pretty good idea.
The first production car debuted today during Monterey Car Week, wearing a two-tone Bronzo. Superga and Giallo Arneis exterior. Its staggered set of center-locking 20 and 21-inch wheels wear black paint, while its carbon-ceramic brake calipers match the bodywork with a bright yellow shade.
The B95’s interior is reminiscent of the Battista’s, combining two screens on either side of the steering wheel with a small central unit displaying the speed. Its carbon-fiber dashboard creates a floating effect, allowing incoming air to pass through while its mirrors blend neatly into the door cards.
This B95 features tan leather on its steering wheel, seats, and dashboard, alongside contrasting houndstooth fabric for its headrests. Given how few B95s will be made, Pininfarina will offer many customization options, ensuring that no two cars will look alike.

The B95 debuted today during Monterey Car Week, with the example shown above is the first of the ten to be produced. Each B95 will start at around $4.8 million, with deliveries expected to begin in 2025. Although there’s still much to be learned about the B95, if it’s just as quick as the Battista just with an open top, it should deliver a fairly unique driving experience.
