Pininfarina continues to surprise its fans with sports and bold design models. This time, the Italian brand took advantage of the Geneva Motor Show to unveil the impressive Enigma GT, a four-seater model that combines a hydrogen engine with an electric motor and promises to go into production in the coming years.
For now, the Enigma GT is just a prototype that offers a first glimpse of the model that will be developed to mark the company’s 95th anniversary in 2025.
With a length of 4.58 meters and a wheelbase of 2.88 meters, in order to maximize interior space, the Enigma GT features a hydrogen-powered 2.5-liter turbocharged V6 combustion engine with 436 hp, which is transmitted to the rear wheels, along with a front axle electric motor with 268 hp, powered by a 10 kWh battery. Pininfarina announced that the battery, combined with the 9 kg hydrogen tank, allows the Enigma GT to have a range of over 700 km.
The chassis is a carbon fiber monocoque covered with carbon panels, which allows this prototype to have a total weight of 1,690 kg.
Aesthetically, the Enigma GT has a very aerodynamic design that allows the Italian manufacturer to announce a drag coefficient of 0.24 Cd, with sculpted front wings, active deflectors on the front wheels, and a rear wing extending from the body that resembles a tail. Also worth noting is the impressive roof inspired by Pininfarina’s history and models such as the Ferrari 512S Berlinetta Speciale and the Abarth 2000 Coupé Pininfarina.
Já el interior presenta nuevas tendencias de diseño, lo que permite a la empresa ofrecer «una experiencia de GT similar a volar», con un panel de instrumentos inspirado en la aeronáutica, así como el uso de una serie de materiales sostenibles.
La interfaz de usuario utiliza un parabrisas de realidad aumentada, que se combina con un volante multifuncional que tiene una forma poco común y está equipado con varios botones personalizables. Además, cuenta con sistemas avanzados de asistencia al conductor para permitir una experiencia de conducción verdaderamente GT.
