Automobili Pininfarina is set to make waves at this year’s Monterey Car Week with the world debut of the B95 Gotham, a unique supercar born from an extraordinary collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products (WBDGCP) and Relevance International. This one-of-a-kind creation, which will be showcased at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering on August 16, is inspired by the luxurious lifestyle of Bruce Wayne, the billionaire alter ego of DC’s iconic superhero, Batman.
The B95 Gotham, an open-topped two-seater Barchetta, is the first tangible result of the Wayne Enterprises Experience partnership, following its virtual debut earlier this year. It stands as a testament to Automobili Pininfarina’s commitment to crafting ‘Dream Cars, Made Real,’ blending cutting-edge innovation with sustainable technology and exquisite design. This collaboration also coincides with Warner Bros. Discovery’s celebration of Batman’s 85th anniversary.
Dave Amantea, Chief Design Officer at Automobili Pininfarina, emphasized the unique approach of the project, stating, “The B95 Gotham exemplifies how we bring our brand promise of ‘Dream Cars, Made Real’ to life for our clients. We place them at the center of everything we do, and delivering bespoke and coach-built cars like this one is all driven by our vision and commitment to design unforgettable client experiences.”
The B95 Gotham is a visual and technological marvel, reflecting Bruce Wayne’s sophisticated tastes and passion for innovation. The car features an elegant Argento Vittorio gloss black paint finish, distinctive wheels with a matte black inner and gloss black outer ring, and Titan calipers. The body is adorned with Wayne Enterprises logos, adding to its exclusivity.
Inside, the B95 Gotham is upholstered in bespoke tan leather with custom quilting and stitching, embodying the refined elegance associated with Bruce Wayne. The car’s interior also includes a bespoke HMI display inspired by Wayne’s loyal butler, Alfred Pennyworth. A laser-engraved driver’s side door plate with the quote, “All men have limits… I ignore mine,” adds a personal touch, linking it back to the original comic books.
Paolo Dellachà, CEO of Automobili Pininfarina, highlighted the synergy between the two brands, saying, “Our collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products is a perfect fit. Bruce Wayne’s values – vision, courage, and the relentless pursuit of innovation and excellence – mirror our own. In the real world, this partnership provides us with a unique platform to reach a broader audience, inspiring a new generation of enthusiasts to appreciate Italian artistry, high-performance engineering, and rich storytelling.”
The B95 Gotham, along with the other three bespoke vehicles—Battista Gotham, B95 Dark Knight, and Battista Dark Knight—will each have only one example produced, ensuring their exclusivity and collectability. The B95 Gotham, powered by a 1,900hp engine, can accelerate from 0-100km/h (0-62mph) in less than two seconds, making it the most powerful car ever produced in Italy.
As Automobili Pininfarina returns to Monterey Car Week for the fifth time, it reaffirms its commitment to creating ultra-luxurious, bespoke vehicles for discerning clients worldwide, delivering on the promises made to its elite audience a year ago.
