Like the Battista coupe, the B95 is based around an electric powertrain from Rimac, and it features an eye-catching design without a windshield.
The B95—"B" is for barchetta, an Italian word for roofless, two-seat sports cars—is built on the same Rimac-sourced bones as the Battista, with a T-shaped 120.0-kWh lithium-ion battery pack slotted into a carbon-fiber housing. It feeds juice to four electric motors, one at each wheel, for a total of 1877 horsepower, and Pininfarina claims a 60-mph sprint of under 2.0 seconds and a top speed over 186 mph. That seems plenty fast for a car without a windshield, let alone a roof.
While the powertrain may be nothing new, the stunning bodywork certainly is. The B95 is wide and low, with flowing curves and a pointy front end featuring a visor-like full-width trim piece that houses LED headlights. Although there is no traditional windshield, the clear polycarbonate aero screens are mounted on aluminum arms that can raise or lower to help shield the occupants from wind. Pininfarina will also offer bespoke matching helmets for B95 buyers.
The cabin, if you can even call it that, uses a dashboard and center console design that appears nearly identical to that of the Battista coupe, with a trio of screens situated behind the steering wheel and lots of carbon fiber trim on the rest of the dashboard. Tan leather covers the seats, center console, and dashboard, contrasting with brushed black aluminum trim, while the seat headrests are decked out in a snazzy Pied de Poule Houndstooth fabric.
Pininfarina will only build 10 units of the B95, with nearly unlimited customization options allowing each example to be unique. There's no word on price, but with the Battista starting at $2.2 million for the 150-unit production run, we imagine the much more exclusive B95 will cost a significant chunk more.
