In this review, Doug DeMuro takes on the Pininfarina Battista, a $3 million hypercar that's pure electric madness. With nearly 2,000 horsepower under the hood, this Italian stallion is limited to just 150 units worldwide, making it rarer than a sober night out with James May. The Battista doesn't just rely on brute force; it offers 230 miles of electric range, sharing some DNA with the Rimac NAA but strutting its stuff with unique design tweaks and performance upgrades.

Step inside, and you're greeted by a symphony of luxury and technology. Metal controls, a circular gear selector that's more spaceship than sports car, and hidden speakers that mimic engine sounds based on your chosen drive mode. It's like being in a sci-fi film, but with a hefty price tag. The interior is a mix of opulence and practicality, with storage compartments strategically placed and a glove box sturdy enough to withstand even the most spirited drives.

But it's not all about the creature comforts; the Battista means business on the road. Accelerating from 0 to 60 in under 1.9 seconds, it's a speed demon in a bespoke suit. The car's top speed of 217 mph puts it in the big leagues of high-performance vehicles. And let's not forget the unique quirks, from the signature key to the hidden Easter eggs painted on the doors. The Battista isn't just a car; it's a work of art on wheels, a testament to Italian craftsmanship and engineering prowess.
