Pininfarina Cambiano concept considered for limited production

Pininfarina Cambiano concept

According to a recent report, the Italian car design company Pininfarina may build a limited run of the Cambiano concept, which was unveiled at the 2012 Geneva Auto Show.

Speaking with Automotive News Europe, CEO Sergio Angori said "We are evaluating the potential for companies and private buyers interested in a high-performance, low-emission luxury model such as the Cambiano. If we built ten units, each Cambiano would cost about €1 million. If the production run were increased to 70 to 75, the per-unit price would fall to €400,000. It would take 24 to 30 months to start production of the Cambiano, which would probably have a diesel-powered internal combustion engine as a range extender rather than the diesel-fueled turbine in the concept".

As we have previously reported, the Cambiano Concept is powered by a range-extended electric drivetrain, which is coming with four electric motors which consists of four 82 hp electric motors and a small diesel engine which acts as a generator to recharge the batteries. This allows the 1,700 kg car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in just 4.2 seconds, hit a top speed of 275 km/h and has a total range of 200 km.
