At a time of powerful, fast and high-performance cars, the American company Czinger introduced its first model, the Czinger 21C. This super fast car achieved the best time of the Laguna Seca track.

The Czinger 21C is powered by a 2.88-liter V8 engine, with rear-wheel drive, and two electric motors that deliver a total of 1,250 hp at 10,500 rpm. Power to the rear axle is transmitted via a seven-speed sequential transmission with hydraulic clutch. Weighing 1,250 kg, this hypercar reaches 62 mph in less than two seconds with a top speed of 280 mph (450 km / h).

“It goes without saying that we are delighted with the performance of the car. To be able to achieve this lap time with a car that is going into homologated production is the result of some incredibly hard work from the Czinger team and in particular our ability to exploit the cutting-edge technology that we have access to through our close association with Divergent, ”said Ewan Baldry, Chief Engineer at Czinger.

The design of the car was inspired by the SR-71 Blackbird. With outstanding aerodynamics and performance, the Czinger 21C has a carbon fiber chassis and centrally positioned seats (passenger seat behind the driver).
