<b>Listen to</b> <b>BATTISTA for the</b><b></b> <b>first time</b>
The arrival of the first production-spec car also provides customers with the opportunity to listen to battista for the first time, showcasing a unique soundscape currently being developed for the world's first all-electric super GT. Individual sounds are being adjusted to create an emotional response for both the rider and the onlooker, ensuring that Battista provides an intoxicating experience for all senses.
Following automobili Pininfarina's concept of "pure sound", the soundscape has a core frequency of 54Hz, an organic frequency of multiples of 432Hz - called 'Verdi's Concerto in A minor', created by the famous Italian composer Giuseppe Verdi, with a unique aural logo created by the famous Italian composer Giuseppe Verdi, tailored specifically for the most powerful italian sports car ever on the road
René Wollmann, Director of Sports Car Product Platform at Automobili Pininfarina, said: "Every driver has an emotional bond with the car, and Battista's voice will cultivate this connection, which is not simply a copy of the familiar car sound, but a voice that conveys the beauty of Battista's design inside and out, in this way, Battista not only impresses with its aesthetic appearance and performance, And also will enhance emotion through soundWe look forward to receiving comments from customers in the United States as we fine-tune the Battista sound experience"
According to music theory, 432Hz is mathematically in harmony with nature It is said that music tuned to 432Hz is a pure silence that complements the pure design of Battista, while being more transparent to the ear as a multiplier of 432Hz, the engineers of Automobili Pininfarina chose 54Hz as the core frequency of Battista, providing a unique and recognizable auditory marker, Will produce the emotional response that customers expect from the 1900hp Super GT
Starting from this, the frequency will increase in multiples of 54Hz, and as the vehicle's speed increases to achieve a new layer of seamless acoustic response that will reflect battista's all-electric performance, combined with rich bass, to create a signature sound
Automobili Pininfarina Battista is named after Battista 'Pinin' Farina, founder of the carrozzeria Pininfarina bodybuilding company, who founded the company Super GT in 1930 to realize Battista's dream of seeing cars bearing pininfarina's name in production, with the first vehicles to be delivered to customers later this year
