Czinger Hyper GT: A New Grand Tourer from Czinger
Introduction
Back in 2022, Czinger, the manufacturer of mid-engine, plug-in hybrid 21C hypercars, teased another exciting concept: the Hyper GT. This grand tourer is a more refined and civilized vehicle compared to the track-focused 21C. Czinger has now confirmed its plans to produce the Hyper GT.
Powertrain
The Hyper GT is expected to be powered by the same plug-in hybrid powertrain as the 21C. This means it will feature a 2.88-liter flat-plane crank V8 engine with twin turbochargers, along with two electric motors. The powertrain delivers an impressive 1,233 horsepower (920 kW/1,250 PS).
Unique Architecture
Czinger has stated that the Hyper GT will not be based on the same architecture as the 21C. In an interview with Top Gear, the automaker revealed its plans to develop a new architecture specifically designed for a grand tourer. This ensures that each vehicle will be completely unique and not a modified version of existing platforms.
Expertise in 3D Printing
Czinger’s expertise in 3D printing allows them to manufacture new parts and components for their vehicles. The company has secured manufacturing contracts with prestigious brands such as Aston Martin and Mercedes, as well as General Atomics. Their 3D printed designs have significantly reduced assembly time and simplified production processes.
Future Plans
In addition to the Hyper GT, Czinger plans to build six more unique vehicles by the end of the decade. While remaining a low-volume, high-performance brand, Czinger is also focused on developing new technologies and innovations that will eventually be introduced to the mass market.
Conclusion
Czinger’s Hyper GT is an exciting addition to their lineup, offering a more refined and luxurious driving experience compared to the track-focused 21C. With its powerful plug-in hybrid powertrain and unique architecture, the Hyper GT is set to make a significant impact in the grand tourer segment.
