Reflecting Bruce Wayne's sophisticated tastes, the B95 Gotham features tan leather upholstery with bespoke quilting and complementary stitching. The interior includes a Wayne Enterprises-inspired HMI display and a virtual assistant voice inspired by Alfred Pennyworth. A laser-engraved driver’s side door plate bears the quote "All men have limits... I ignore mine."

The exterior showcases Argento Vittorio gloss black paint with unique wheels featuring a matt black inner and gloss black outer ring. Titan calipers and a brushed aluminium anodised black centre lock ring complete the look. Wayne Enterprises logos adorn the body, chassis plate, and door plates.

The B95 Gotham generates 1,900hp, accelerating from 0-100km/h (0-62mph) in under two seconds. This makes it the most powerful road car ever produced in Italy. The design includes electronically adjustable aero screens to deflect air over the open cabin.

The collaboration coincides with Warner Bros. Discovery celebrating 85 years of Batman in 2024. Dave Amantea, Chief Design Officer at Automobili Pininfarina, stated: "The B95 Gotham exemplifies how we bring our brand promise of ‘Dream Cars, Made Real’ to life for our clients."

Wayne Enterprises Luxury Label

Released under WBDGCP’s new luxury brand inspired by Bruce Wayne, the B95 Gotham represents his public persona as a tech-focused innovator and entrepreneur. The other specifications in the series reflect his private life as Gotham City’s masked vigilante.

Paolo Dellachà, CEO of Automobili Pininfarina, remarked: "Our collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products is a perfect fit. Bruce Wayne's values – vision, courage, and relentless pursuit of innovation – mirror our own."

Monterey Car Week Participation

This year marks Automobili Pininfarina's fifth return to Monterey Car Week. They continue to fulfil their promise to design and build bespoke ultra-luxurious cars for discerning clients worldwide.

Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products extends its entertainment brands into fans' lives through innovative licensing programs globally.
