Speedy 3D-Printed Hypercars

Czinger Announced the 'V Max' Version of its 21C Supercar

— August 24, 2022 — Autos
Czinger, the automaker most known for its customizable '21C' supercar, recently announced a bespoke body trim for this car titled the '21C V Max.' The V Max pushes the Czinger more toward hypercar than supercar with a modified frame and components specifically optimized for speed and power output. The 21C V Max features a fighter-jet-inspired cabin with an elongated, lowered frame with enhanced aerodynamics, effectively increasing traction while lowering wind resistance.

The powertrain and drivetrain of the 21C are unchanged, but the frame modifications resulted in a 0-62mph of 1.9 seconds and a maximum speed of roughly 268 miles per hour. This is significantly more powerful than the regular 21C. However, this power comes at a cost, as the 21C V Max retails for $1.7 million USD and reportedly takes over 3,000 hours to 3D-print each model.
