There are cars that, when they are presented in society, we already know that they are going to represent a before and after. And everything indicates that the new Enigma GT is going to be one of them. But it is not only because of its futuristic design, but also because of its incredible features and the cutting-edge technology it incorporates.
Pininfarina’s new creation arrives to celebrate the 95th anniversary of the Italian design firm, which will take place in 2025, and it does so by creating excitement because it is not a typical supercar, but rather a hybrid vehicle designed for daily use. although this is surprising.
The Enigma is a visionary creation that wants to project the everyday pleasure of driving in an extraordinary car. The GT has an eminently elegant silhouette and rides low to the ground on large wheels. The thin LED strips at both ends play the role of headlights and taillights.
The car is 4.58 m long and has a relatively long wheelbase of 2.88 m. It has no A or B pillars, while the C is thick and very inclined, leading to an aerodynamic and optimized rear part. This contributes to the car obtaining an excellent aerodynamic coefficient. The setup also includes active aerodynamic elements, such as a kind of shutters on the front grille and deflectors on the wheels.
The futuristic design includes a large roof that rises along with the entire dashboard to allow entry and exit to an innovative cabin with a 2 2 design. The dashboard is dominated by an OLED screen with augmented reality and Artificial Intelligence. The vehicle has autonomous driving functions. Sustainable materials are present throughout the interior of the cabin, including the seats.
The Pininfarina Enigma GT is powered by a rear mid-range V6 engine (2.5 liters and fueled by hydrogen) and also by an electric motor. The V6 generates 436 HP to the rear axle, while the electric motor delivers 268 HP to the front wheels in an all-wheel drive configuration.
The Enigma accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 4 seconds and boasts a top speed of 250 km/h. Hydrogen is stored in a 9 kg tank, while electrical energy is stored in a battery with a capacity of 10 kWh. Together, they allow the GT to travel up to 550 km without having to stop to refuel or recharge.
For now, the Pininfarina Enigma GT is a concept that has been presented virtually at the recent Geneva Motor Show, but it could play a key role in the brand’s future models. The firm plans to show the vehicle in all its glory later.
