    Production Of Automobili Pininfarina Battista Hypercar Finally Starts

    We first saw the Automobili Pininfarina Battista in 2019 but we can finally inform you that production has officially begun and the first unit has been completed.

    As a reminder, the electric hypercar is described as “the most powerful road-legal Italian car ever built” and will take on the Rimac Nevera and Lotus Evija in the increasingly competitive hyper-EV segment.

    It pushes out a whopping 1,900 hp (1,417 kW) and 2,300 Nm (1,696 lb-ft) of torque from a quad-motor powertrain closely related to that used by its Rimac rival. As such, the performance is as dazzling with a claimed 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) time of less than 2 seconds and a top speed of 350 km/h (217 mph). Its 120 kWh battery supplies a range of 500 km (311 miles) and can be charged at speeds of up to 180 kW.

    From start to finish the production cycle of just a single Battista will take 10 weeks and a total of some 1,250 hours. That process takes place in the Battista Atelier located in Cambiano, Italy.

    The company claims that no two examples will be identical as each owner is invited to the Atelier to meet the production team and create their spec. Pininfarina says that “a bespoke design proposal is created for each client before they are invited to Cambiano to work face-to-face with the designers, where they then refine their final specification.” A number of interior and exterior options exist all the way down to interior engravings and custom wheel finishes.

    The options are so vast that Pininfarina says there are 128 million possible interior configurations and 13.9 quintillion exterior combinations. It sounds like it’ll have no problem making each of the 150 cars different enough.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
