Vittori and Pininfarina Unveil World's First AI-Designed V12 Hypercar

The car world has just seen something special. A new Italian hypercar, the product of a partnership between ambitious startup Vittori and fabled design house Pininfarina, has broken cover. Limited to only 50 units, this elegant creation is notable not just for its V12 powerplant but also for being the first-ever supercar to have been designed with the assistance of artificial intelligence.

AI was actively involved in designing the car's style language, supporting Pininfarina's designers in investigating aerodynamic shapes, surfaces, and ratios that otherwise would have taken many more years. 

A Marriage of Tradition and Technology

Though most of the attention goes to the AI-aided design, the Vittori hypercar is very much grounded in Italian performance tradition. The naturally aspirated V12 engine, co-developed with Italtecnica, is hidden beneath its chiseled rear deck. The company also announced that it will utilize hybrid technology, with a balance between unadulterated combustion theatre and electric finesse.

Visually, the car is unmistakably Italian. The lines are dramatic but elegant, with a low-slung position and aerodynamic folds that point to tremendous speed even at rest. Pininfarina's hand is apparent in every surface and bend, from the sinuous fenders to the aggressive, functional air intakes.

The proportions of the car appear to be optimized for airflow efficiency and balance, all while preserving the artistic style that we expect from Italy's top design house. Sorry to continue referring to "the car" because, well, we don't know the name yet.

A Glimpse Inside and Future Plans

Step inside, and the cabin reinforces the philosophy of balance between emotion and innovation. Rather than a completely digital cockpit, Vittori has chosen to put more of an analog feel into the vehicle with physical controls remaining in addition to modern screens. It's a touch of deference to purists who still hanker after a tactile link with their machines.

Production will be done in Italy, with delivery to start in 2027. Vittori has confirmed that just 50 units will be produced. Though the price is under wraps, the integration of a bespoke V12 engine, Pininfarina design, and AI contribution means this will cost an awful lot.

Why AI in Car Design Is a Big Step

Traditionally, designing a car takes months of hand sketches, scale models, and digital rendering. Vittori’s use of AI shortens this process dramatically by allowing designers to test aerodynamic shapes, lighting designs, and proportions almost instantly. AI doesn’t replace the human eye for beauty, but it enhances what’s possible in early stages.

This collaboration between Vittori’s forward-thinking engineers and Pininfarina’s design heritage is an important milestone. It suggests that AI may become a common creative tool in the automotive industry rather than a gimmick. The future of car design might no longer be about man versus machine, but about the two working in harmony.

FAQs

Is this really the first car designed with the help of AI?

Yes. Vittori says it is the world's first supercar whose design process was partially helped along by artificial intelligence, a first in the business.

What is its powertrain?

The vehicle comes with a naturally aspirated V12 engine created in collaboration with Italtecnica, combined with an electric hybrid system to enhance performance and efficiency.

Will it go into production?

Yes, only 50 units of the hypercar will be made, with assembly in Italy. Deliveries are planned for late 2027.

Who styled the car?

Pininfarina, one of the most renowned names in automobile design, styled the hypercar. AI helped define its aerodynamics and structure at the concept stage.

Are performance specs out?

Not so. Vittori has not published any power, torque, or top-speed figures, although hopes are high considering the V12 engine and Pininfarina's contribution.
