The significance of the Novantacinque is underscored by its stunning design elements and technology, making it a true homage to Italian automotive artistry.
Design and Craftsmanship
The exterior of the Battista Novantacinque is a striking reflection of Italian culture, finished in Exposed Signature Carbon Tinted Rosso Gloss. This vibrant color encapsulates the essence of speed and passion that Pininfarina is known for. Enhancing its exclusivity, the car features a bespoke livery showcasing PURA Vision Gold Paint Gloss alongside Nero Torino Gloss accents, seamlessly integrated with a distinctive gold pinstripe, thanks to the Furiosa Pack. A special 'Novantacinque' script adorns the rear wing, reiterating its commemorative status.
Furthermore, the Iconico wheels are precision-polished and set against a backdrop of black detailing, contributing to the dynamic silhouette of the vehicle, while the black brake calipers and anodized aluminum accents add depth and sophistication.
Inside, the Battista Novantacinque offers a luxurious cockpit experience. The Pilota seats, upholstered in Black Leather and Alcantara, are accented with duotone stitching in Black and Gold, mirroring the vehicle's exterior theme. The seats also feature '95' embroidery in Gold across the knee pads, further emphasizing the celebratory nature of the car. The aesthetic is completed by Exposed Signature Carbon Satin and refined aluminum elements in Gold and Black, providing an immersive atmosphere that speaks to the high level of detail and bespoke nature of the vehicle.
