Automobili Pininfarina has unveiled a collection of bespoke pure-electric vehicles tailor made for Bruce Wayne. In collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products and Relevance International, and inspired by Batman's alter ego Bruce Wayne, these two new highly exclusive versions of both the Automobili Pininfarina B95 hyper Barchetta and the Battista hyper GT will have Bat-fans and petrol heads salivating.
The two unique specifications, appropriately named Gotham and Dark Knight, have been curated to compliment the conflicted caped Crusader.
Bruce Wayne will have access to two exclusive versions of the B95 hyper Barchetta and Battista hyper GT, named Gotham and Dark Knight. All four cars are powered by a high-capacity 120kWh lithium-ion battery and four motors to generate 1,900hp. That's enough to propel each pure-electric model from 0-100km/h (0-62mph) in less than a two second sprint. Put simply, that's faster than a Formula 1 car.

Both Battista and B95 models boast an all-new Wayne Enterprises-inspired HMI display enhancements, featuring an instruction voice inspired by Bruce Wayne's loyal butler and assistant, Alfred Pennyworth.
The Battista models also offer entirely new performance-enhancing specifications. These include tailgate shark fins and louvre openings in the front and rear carbon fibre wings to improve overall aerodynamic efficiency towards the rear airbrake and vehicle side body. The exterior is completed with Wayne Enterprises logos on the side skirts and roof, and all models display a unique aluminium chassis and door plate, inspired by Wayne Enterprises.
To further emphasise the 'Dream Cars Made Real' philosophy, the interiors of both the Battista Gotham and Dark Knight cars benefit from a completely new door and roof design where a large portion of the roof is curved glass, to lighten the interior ambience.
The Gotham specification is intended to reflect the more gentle, civilian sophistication of Bruce Wayne. Both the B95 and Battista models are upholstered in a distinctive tan leather that includes bespoke quilting in the centre panels, along with tan stitching.
The Gotham Battista's bodywork is finished in Argento Vittorio gloss paint, complemented by the Nero Torino gloss paint Goccia roof. To finish the look, the brand's iconic 'F' logo is back-lit and made of brushed and polished anodized aluminium. The 20-inch front and 21-inch rear alloy wheels are finished with a Prezioso Evoluzione gloss black face and matt black channel rim.
The Gotham B95's wheels closely match those of the Gotham Battista, except they are finished in a matt black inner and gloss black outer ring, with Titan callipers and a brushed aluminium anodized black rim centre lock ring to complete the look.
By contrast, the Dark Knight design reflects Bruce Wayne's use of technology to maintain an edge in his fight against Gotham City's criminal underworld. These vehicles feature black Alcantara and black leather upholstery, with a unique black and gold duo-tone contrast stitch.
The Dark Knight Battista's bodywork is finished in Nero Profondo gloss paint, with Nero Torino 'Goccia' roof, and Glorioso ceramic-polished rims complete the look. The Dark Knight B95's exterior matches the Battista, also featuring ceramic-polished rims.
"Designing an all-electric hypercar inspired by Bruce Wayne is a dream assignment for our team, giving them creative freedom to place themselves into the imagination of someone as iconic as Bruce Wayne," says Dave Amantea, Chief Design Officer at Automobili Pininfarina. "These two exclusive specifications for our two hypercars represent the ultimate vehicles for the man behind the most famous mask in the world."
Robert Oberschelp, Head of Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products, added: "Collaborating with Automobili Pininfarina on designing these incredible, state-of-the-art vehicles exemplifies our Wayne Enterprises guiding motto: partner with premier brands to bring Bruce Wayne's elevated taste into the real world. These stunning hypercars, featuring elaborate design and futuristic technology, celebrate the Wayne lifestyle while offering an innovative product unlike anything else in the market."
The partnership will launch at BruceWayneX.com and will be followed by an invite-only first-of-its-kind retail theatre concept this summer where an Automobili Pininfarina Battista will be on exclusive display.
