A Prestigious Design Honor
The Red Dot Award is an internationally recognized seal of design quality. Every year, an expert panel composed of designers, professors, and specialist journalists evaluates submissions based on their innovation and design excellence. This year, the judges selected the B95 as the standout winner in the Design Concept category. This victory continues a pattern of success for Automobili Pininfarina, whose PURA Vision concept claimed the same title in 2024, highlighting the brand’s consistent design leadership.
A Vision of Excellence
Dave Amantea, Chief Design Officer at Automobili Pininfarina, expressed that winning the Red Dot Award is a tremendous honor. He stated, “This car embodies our vision for the future of luxury and performance, where timeless design meets cutting-edge innovation. Accolades like this validate our creative direction and reinforce Automobili Pininfarina’s place among the most desirable collector cars of tomorrow.”
This latest achievement adds to a growing list of awards. The B95 has also been recognized with the iF Design Award. Furthermore, the brand’s commitment to performance was recently acknowledged when the Automobili Pininfarina Battista hyper GT was named Best Hypercar in the Robb Report Best of the Best 2025 awards.
The B95 Hyper Barchetta Concept
The B95 offers a unique interpretation of the classic Barchetta—a completely open-top vehicle with a radical and elegant style. Its design is defined by sculptural bodywork, dramatic lines, and exquisite detailing. This modern interpretation of coachbuilt automotive artistry demonstrates the advanced bespoke design, craftsmanship, and engineering capabilities of Automobili Pininfarina.
All vehicles from the brand are designed, engineered, and hand-produced in Cambiano, Italy. They embody the PURA design philosophy, which seamlessly blends classic inspiration with cutting-edge technology to create unique experiences for discerning clients. This philosophy is evident in the powerful Battista, the most powerful road-legal car ever designed and built in Italy. With 1,900 hp and 2,340 Nm of torque, the Battista accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in under two seconds, delivering performance unattainable by traditional internal combustion engines.
