New upstart hypercar company Czinger from the US has revealed its Bugatti and Koeniggsegg challenger.

The 21C hypercar is the creation of a small team of designers, engineers and scientists using a revolutionary, patented production system.

Using an extraordinary powertrain and limited to just 80 models with road and track-oriented variants, this all-wheel drive hyper car is powered by a 920kW twin-turbo 2.8l V8 engine that revs to an astounding 11,000rpm and a hybrid system that gives it a total system output of 932kW. It’s also mated to a seven-speed sequential transaxle transmission.

It weighs a paltry 1,250kg, with performance enhancing devices like torque vectoring thrown in.

The speeds it’s claimed to generate are staggering: with the quarter mile sprint coming in 8.1 sec, 0-100km/h in 1.9 seconds and a top speed of 400km/h.

The Czinger that will be sold through 10 global dealerships based in Europe and the US, and will make its global public debut at next month’s Geneva motor show.
