Czinger, the exciting US hypercar startup founded in 2021, is opening a new base in the UK as part of a ‘significant’ investment and expansion strategy.
The new facility is at the MIRA Tech Park in Nuneaton, Warwickshire. It will place Czinger directly alongside leading UK suppliers and powertrain experts – plus the famous Horiba MIRA automotive test track and development facilities.
Czinger will use MIRA to continue its work in ‘redefining how cars are designed and manufactured’. Further development of the radical Czinger 21C (pictured) is set to benefit from the UK expansion, along with forthcoming new models.
“Czinger is a global brand with a vision that transcends borders,” said founder, president and CEO of Czinger Vehicles, Lukas Czinger.
“We’re incredibly proud to have established our UK base of operations at MIRA Tech Park. This world-class facility provides us with the advanced infrastructure and collaborative ecosystem we need to push the boundaries of automotive innovation.
“Our presence here reinforces our commitment to building cutting-edge hypercars while contributing to the UK’s position as a leader in advanced manufacturing and automotive technology.”
Czinger chief engineer Ewan Baldry said being in the UK “allows us to work alongside leading technology partners and leverage world-class infrastructure to bring our next generation of vehicles to life faster and more efficiently”.
Jack Bartlett, head of commercial and partnerships at MIRA Tech Park, welcomed Czinger’s arrival, calling it “exactly the kind of visionary, disruptive business that thrives at MIRA Tech Park.
“Their investment reinforces the UK’s position as a global leader in powertrain and advanced mobility development – and underscores our role as the location of choice for the future of mobility.”
Czinger is working closely with Divergent Technologies, the Silicone Beach-based firm behind the world’s first fully integrated digital manufacturing system.
Its digital tech works up to four times faster than traditional methods, which Czinger is utilising to be ‘at the forefront of a new industrial paradigm… where design, performance and sustainability converge through innovation’.
Premium EV brand Polestar previously had a development base at MIRA Tech Park, too. Development of the new Polestar 5, which will be launched this year, was largely undertaken there.
