1,900 rendering of HP Battista Hypercar with paint, brought by a collaboration between Automobili Pininfarina and Magnus Walker.
Automobili Pininfarina Chief Design Officer Magnus Walker (left) and David Amantea discuss the uniforms of Battista.
Amantea and his team are tasked with bringing Walker's concept of style to reality.
Walker obtained a scale model for working with the automobile.
Walker started “doing basic lines” on Battista using vinyl tape.
Davide Amantea of Automobili Pininfarina describes the final product as embodying “ungodly grace.”
Magnus Walker and David Amantea discussed a small group of Pininfarina’s potential clients and collaborations in front of invites guests.
Rendering of Battista's cockpit.
Indoors, specially embroidered Poltrona Frau leather covers the back and bottom of the seat, while custom turquoise textile inlays provide vibrant colors for the headrest.
A color block pattern inspired by a scanned barcode covers the roof and extends to the custom carbon fiber panels at the rear.
The Pininfarina Battista is rendered along with the paint of Magnus Walker, a car that will eventually be sold to unspecified customers.
