The Czinger 21C is a hybrid sports car developed using 3D printing [2] by the American car manufacturer Czinger Vehicles. Manufacturing began in 2021, [3] with a planned production run of 80 units and deliveries starting Q1 2023.

Czinger Vehicles will produce only 80 units in two configurations: a road variant and a track variant called "Lightweight Track". [7]
The 21C has a driver's seat in the central position and an in-line passenger seat behind that of the driver, [8] minimizing the width of the cockpit.
The brake calipers and suspension components are combined into a single unit called the BrakeNode. [2]
