Everything about the Czinger 21C is extraordinary. It’s an American hypercar, limited to 80 units, which was created using AI and 3D print technology and, as a result, it has the entire automotive industry paying close attention.

Interiors, was to make sure the entire villa reflected a unified theme while still giving each room its unique character and identity. To fulfil their task, a maximalist design…
1. The RS e-Tron GT is beautiful, well proportioned and purposeful but the fact it avoids flamboyance means we were surprised by how many “wow” reactions it generated from others. The Iron Man effect? 2. Unlike Audi’s mainstream EVs, the e-tron GT doesn’t share its underpinnings with cars across the…
