Czinger 21C: Born from Innovation, Built for Dominance

Czinger Vehicles was founded in Los Angeles in 2019 by visionary entrepreneur Kevin Czinger, Founder and Executive Chairman, alongside his son Lukas Czinger, Co-founder, President and CEO.

Engineered with the unmistakable innovation and style synonymous with Los Angeles, the brand is a groundbreaking proof of concept—an evolution born from Divergent 3D, its sister company and the driving force behind the revolutionary technologies that power the 21C hypercar. With over 600 patents covering these advancements, Czinger Vehicles is redefining the future of automotive manufacturing.

Kevin Czinger’s mission to disrupt the auto industry began with a fundamental realization: the way they build cars is far more damaging to the environment than how we fuel them. Determined to change this, he founded Divergent 3D, focusing on the development and patenting of a sustainable, high-performance production system. By leveraging automated design and optimization software, cutting-edge 3D printing technology, automated assembly, and proprietary high-performance materials, Czinger has created a groundbreaking manufacturing ecosystem that radically reduces environmental impact while pushing the limits of automotive performance.

A Conversation with Lukas Czinger

We had the rare privilege of an exclusive one-on-one conversation with Lukas.

Born in London to a German mother and an American father, Lukas Czinger’s upbringing was as diverse as his aspirations. From an early age, Lukas exhibited a profound fascination with speed and engineering, passions that would later culminate in the inception of the Czinger 21C.

Lukas’ journey is deeply intertwined with that of his father, Kevin Czinger, the founder and CEO of Czinger Vehicles. Their collaboration extends beyond familial ties into a synergistic partnership that drives the company’s vision forward. Lukas joined the family business at 22 and, now at 30, plays a vital role in both the strategic direction and day-to-day operations of the company.

The Czinger 21C: A Symphony of Innovation

The Czinger 21C is not merely a car; it’s a revolution in automotive engineering. Designed, manufactured, and assembled in Los Angeles, California, the 21C utilizes the world’s most advanced production technologies. Its hybrid powertrain combines a bespoke twin-turbo V8 engine with three electric motors, delivering a staggering 1,350 horsepower. This configuration enables the 21C to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 1.9 seconds and achieve a top speed of 219 mph.

A distinctive feature of the 21C is its 1+1 seating arrangement, positioning the passenger directly behind the driver. This design not only draws inspiration from fighter jets but also enhances aerodynamic efficiency by reducing the frontal surface area. Lukas explains that this configuration provides an unparalleled driving experience, offering symmetry in handling and a central driving position that immerses the driver fully.

The brand offers an extensive range of customization options. Options range from a touring-style interior to a performance-oriented, track-ready package, which includes a track-focused exhaust system, a C5-point harness system, and other performance enhancements.

Customization Without Limits

When it comes to colors and materials, the possibilities are virtually limitless. Czinger’s design team meticulously reviews every specification, and Lukas personally ensures that each build aligns with the brand’s DNA. However, his priority is to bring each customer’s vision to life—whether it’s their preferred color scheme, interior materials, seat design, or a tailored fit for their driving experience.

Within their standard catalog, they offer dozens of material and color choices, but we also provide the opportunity for complete customization. If a customer wants to create a personal bespoke color, they will make it happen.

Additionally, thanks to their advanced additive manufacturing and 3D printing capabilities, Czinger can push customization even further. Over time, they are integrating customer-specific, one-of-one components—such as fully customized 3D-printed rim centers and other bespoke elements—giving each vehicle a truly personal touch.

The Czinger 21C is more than a hypercar; it’s a manifestation of what passion, innovation, and visionary leadership can achieve. Through the lens of Lukas Czinger, we witness the convergence of cutting-edge technology and a relentless drive to redefine automotive boundaries. As Czinger Vehicles continues its journey, the 21C stands as a beacon of what’s possible when ambition meets execution.

Pushing Boundaries

The Czinger team has pioneered a revolutionary suite of advanced design and manufacturing tools, seamlessly integrating supercomputing, machine learning, next-generation materials, additive manufacturing, and robotics into a patented production system. This breakthrough doesn’t just allow them to envision the future—it empowers them to create it.

By removing traditional design constraints, these tools have unlocked a new era of innovation, enabling the Czinger team to reimagine design, structures, and engineered systems in ways previously thought impossible.

Looking Ahead: The Future of Czinger Vehicles

While the 21C represents a monumental achievement, Czinger Vehicles’ ambitions extend further. The company envisions leveraging its proprietary technologies to revolutionize automotive manufacturing, aiming to introduce more models that embody the same spirit of innovation and performance. Lukas emphasizes that their goal is to establish Czinger as the premier supercar and hypercar brand in the Americas, filling a niche in the market for groundbreaking, American-engineered performance vehicles.
