About the Czinger 21C
The Czinger 21C is a revolutionary hypercar that showcases the potential of additive manufacturing and AI-driven design. Built in Los Angeles, its chassis and suspension components are 3D-printed using proprietary software that mimics organic structures to minimize weight while maximizing strength. The powertrain features a bespoke, high-revving 2.9-litre V8 paired with three electric motors, delivering a combined 1,250 hp. Its unique tandem seating arrangement, inspired by fighter jets, places the passenger directly behind the driver for optimal weight distribution and aerodynamics. The 21C has proven its performance by setting production car lap records at Laguna Seca and the Circuit of the Americas.

Czinger 21C rarity in CarSpot
The Czinger 21C is a Unicorn card in CarSpot, with a rarity score of 100 out of 100. The rarest tier: hypercars, one-offs and cars built in tiny numbers, typically fewer than about 500. A Unicorn card is worth 320 XP.
Each model's tier starts from a 0–100 score based on its value plus its power or production numbers. Once enough players have spotted a model, how often it is spotted can move it up or down one tier. How CarSpot rarity works
Rarity is a collectible game mechanic, not an assessment of real-world scarcity or value.
Czinger 21C fun facts
- The 21C's chassis is partially 3D-printed using a process called 'additive manufacturing' that allows for complex, organic-looking structures.
- It features a unique 1+1 tandem seating layout, similar to a fighter jet, which allows for a narrower, more aerodynamic cabin.
- The in-house developed 2.88-litre V8 is claimed to be the most power-dense production engine in the world, revving to a screaming 11,000 rpm.
