You probably know the Pininfarina Battista by now. If not, here"s a quick recap: fully electric, 1,900bhp, 0-62mph in sub 2.0secs, styling by one of the biggest names in the business. If this doesn"t sway you from petrol performance cars, nothing will. Up until now, we"ve only really seen it at a standstill. Sure, there were a few snaps of it trundling through New York looking very pretty in the process but heck, this has nearly two thousand horsepower. Trundling is not its forte. Thus seeing the Battista wind its way around a beautiful mountain pass, the natural hunting ground of the supercar, is an exciting moment. Let"s forget the logistic issues (and likely range anxiety) of stretching the legs of a plug-in supercar far away from actual plugs, and just imagine how much fun its driver must be having.
