Having seen the tremendous potential in Czinger’s commitment to revolutionary design and manufacturing; Al Habtoor Motors are excited to provide a vehicle that matches its standards of excellence, luxury and innovation for its exclusive clientele.
Officially reaching the status of the fastest road-legal production car of all time, the 21C embarked on the legendary Goodwood Hillclimb, breaking the record in the Timed Shootout with a blistering 48.82 second run, besting the previous 49.32 second record set in 2023. Veteran driver Chris Ward steered the 21C to victory with his extensive racing experience.
Czinger vehicles proudly returned to the Goodwood Festival of Speed for the third consecutive year, debuting 21C in a striking Rattlesnake Green. The innovative brand also shared the 21C V Max in its stunning Iceman Blue specification at their stand in the Supercar Paddock. Visitors had the opportunity to marvel at the state-of-the-art 3Dprinted 21C chassis for the first time, with Czinger executives such as Founder and CEO Kevin Czinger, Chief Designer David O’Connell, and Chief Engineer Ewan Baldry in attendance to share insights from their innovative journey and to discuss the future of automotive manufacturing.
Kevin Czinger, Founder and CEO said: “Our team had a wonderful experience at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, and breaking this record ends our fantastic week with an exclamation point. The 21C exists as proof of what is realised when the handcuffs of traditional manufacturing are removed and traded for the freedom to create, optimise, and perfect. Be on the lookout for more record shattering to come.”
With its revolutionary Bio-Logic™ alloy 3Dprinted and carbon fiber chassis, comprised of perfectly evolved structures that utilize machine learning and AI in their design, the 21C delivers a new generation of chassis efficiency and vehicle dynamics. Its unique hybrid powertrain combines the world’s most power-dense production engine, an in-house developed 950 bhp V8 twin-turbo, with three electric motors to deliver 1,350 horsepower, propelling the 21C from 0 to 60 mph in 1.9 seconds, and providing continuous peak performance that was perfectly showcased at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
Al Habtoor Motors and Czinger are excited to present the world’s first human-AI-designed and 3D printed vehicle to the Middle East market soon, revolutionising the future of automotive manufacturing and delivering a vehicle that encapsulates the distinguished taste of the region.
