First Drive: Pininfarina Battista – $, 1,900bhp hyper-EV driven on road and track | Top Gear

This is the future of really, really fast things. It’s the sister car to the Rimac Nevera, so based around the same powertrain technology, electrical architecture and carbon core – but is draped in a body and interior of Pininfarina’s design. Sorry, yes, forgot to mention, this is an all-electric hypercar, sorry Hyper-GT. A 1,874bhp and 1,696lb ft monster capable of zero to 60mph in sub 2 seconds, 0-186mph in less than 12 seconds, a top speed of 217mph and if you can find a 180kw DC charger, you can top up from 0-80 per cent in 40 minutes. But what’s the future of really, really fast things like to drive? Well, we sent Top Gear Magazine’s Jack Rix to Miami to find out.
