Automobili Pininfarina has unveiled its third car model at the Monterey Car Week in California: the B95, an electric speedster with nearly 2 000 horsepower and no windshield to protect you. Production will be limited to just ten examples, and it isn’t cheap. With a price tag of 4.4 million euros, it will be the world’s most expensive EV today.
Following the Battista hypercar, which is based on the Rimac Nevera, and the PURA Vision concept car, the Italian design house turned manufacturer has now revealed its third model in the shape of the B95, where the ‘B’ stands for ‘Barchetta’ and the 95 refers to the company’s age. Pininfarina calls it the world’s first fully-electric speedster.

Familiar face
In terms of design, the B95 blends elements from its other models, showing a nose similar to the PURA Vision. At the same time, the overall shape leans closer to the Battista – albeit with no roof or windshield to protect you from the elements. In their place, there are movable aero screens and, if you’re still uncomfortable, a matching set of helmets.
Drivetrain-wise, the B95 borrows its internals directly from the Battista, which means there are four e-motors (one for each wheel), developing a combined power figure of around 1,900 hp. This allows the speedster to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 2 seconds, with a top speed of “over 300 km/h,” plenty fast for being fully exposed to the outside world.

The battery comes from the Battista, too, with a 120 kWh unit that can recharge from 20 to 80 percent in just 25 minutes, thanks to a max charging rate of 270 kW. No official range figures have been given, but the Battista manages 476 km from the same battery and drivetrain.
4,4 million euros
Sensations that are, as expected, reserved for the happy few. And there will be very few, as Automobili Pininfarina only intends to build 10 examples starting in 2025. Each owner will therefore be able to create a unique model, but only after paying 4.4 million euros. That makes it twice as expensive as the Battista, although it is 15 times rarer.
