Czinger Unveils 21C Spyder Open‑Top Hypercar

The 30‑unit Spyder pairs a 1,250‑hp hybrid powertrain with BrakeNode, an additively made component Czinger says trims unsprung mass and raises structural stiffness.

Overview

  • Czinger has launched the 21C Spyder as an open‑top complement to its 21C hardtop with production capped at 30 examples and a base price of $2.75 million before options.
  • The company says the Spyder uses a 2.88‑liter twin‑turbo V8 plus three electric motors for a combined output of about 1,250 hp and 691 lb‑ft of torque.
  • Manufacturer‑reported performance figures include 0–60 mph in 1.9 seconds, a quarter‑mile in 8.7 seconds and a 205 mph top speed, and Czinger claims the car generates roughly 3,267–3,307 lbs of downforce.
  • The Spyder debuts BrakeNode, an additively manufactured aluminum part that integrates caliper, upright and hydraulic passages to reduce unsprung mass and increase stiffness, and Czinger will offer BrakeNode as an option for the hardtop in specific configurations.
  • The interior introduces a 'NeuralNode' control cluster, the removable carbon‑fiber roof weighs about 22 lbs and cannot be stowed in the car, and the model underscores Czinger’s focus on bespoke, additive manufacturing and lightweight hybrid engineering.
