Pininfarina is a new car brand, but it has a long history as a designer. It recently created a special version of its electric car, the Battista, inspired by an old Lancia model from 1955.
The Lancia Florida, designed by Pininfarina, had a unique look that influenced other cars made by Lancia. Only four were built, including one coupe. Now, Pininfarina has used its design cues to create the Cinquantacinque, or “fifty-five” in Italian.
The Cinquantacinque has a two-tone color scheme, just like the old Lancia coupe. The body is blue, while the roof is white. Inside, it has fancy leather seats and special details.
Mechanically, the Cinquantacinque is the same as the regular Battista. It’s powered by four electric motors and a big battery, giving it almost 2,000 horsepower and a range of about 295 miles.
This special Battista isn’t for sale to the public. Pininfarina made it to show off what they can do with customization. But if you really want one, and you have a lot of money, you might be able to get it. The regular Battista starts at $2.2 million.
