Divergent Czinger car is 3-D printed, goes 0-60 in 2 secs
Two months ago, a car of the future rolled out of a Los Angeles factory and onto the street.
Called the Czinger 21C, it is mostly made with a gigantic 3-D printer. However, this electric hypercar is anything but a toy.
With a starting price of $2 million, the two-seat rocket ship of a vehicle (one seat in front and one seat in back) has a top speed of 253 miles per hour and goes from zero to 62 in 1.9 seconds.

'Right now, it's the fastest hypercar in the world,' Lukas Czinger, COO of Divergent, the company that produced the Czinger, told The Post. 'And it is fully road legal.'
Cool as the car may be, it is also the template for a whole new kind of manufacturing. Just as a computer can send information to a printer anywhere in the world to make a hard copy of a document, Divergent can do the same with the parts to build a car.
And it would not be limited only to automobiles. Can the technology be used to construct, say, a house? 'Yes,' said Los Angeles-based Czinger, 29. 'We can build virtually any metal structure.'
Divergent says it will completely transform the way in which cars and other items are produced.

'We're ripping apart the supply chain,' said Czinger (the C is silent, so it's pronounced as 'zinger'). 'The printer is where the end product is manufactured, so you don't have to worry about a supply chain.'
But it doesn't come cheap. Development of the printer ran to $500 million before a single thing was actually produced. 'It wasn't easy to raise money,' Czinger admitted. 'It was a capital-intensive development [but] the fundamental idea is to create a new kind of manufacturing.'
Weighing in at around two tons and dimensioned like a pair of shipping containers stacked on top of each other, the printer uses metallic powders and lasers (which melt the powder) to build parts layer by layer.
11 Wherever possible, the Czinger automobile is assembled robotically.

'A single part,' said Czinger, 'could have 5,000 layers. One day, each printer will be its own factory. This is what we call digital manufacturing.'
Czinger thinks of it as 'one factory that can make any product as opposed to one factory that makes only one product. We'll have instant manufacturing, in which the printer can make a Ferrari rear frame for one of its automobiles and then, in the next second, it can print a cruise missile for Lockheed Martin.'
Divergent is the brainchild of Lukas and his father, Kevin Czinger. Kevin, from Ohio, founded the company in 2014 following careers in law and investment banking.
11 Divergent is using technology to upend the way that manufacturing is done.

As things got off the ground, Lukas, who has an engineering degree from Yale University, 'quit my banking job and rolled the dice, betting on Kevin, betting on myself, betting on the vision of Divergent.'
Currently, said Czinger, creating one of his company's cars from design to the finished product takes about 1,000 hours. Done the old-fashioned way, 'with a manual chassis [building] process,' he added, 'you can probably add another 600 hours.'
Although Divergent is at the forefront of the new auto revolution – and road-worthy proof that it works – they are not the only ones changing the game.

In fact, changing batteries in electric cars, which lose charging power over time, is another growth area.
'There's a player in China that allows for battery swapping,' Phillip Kampshoff, a McKinsey & Company senior partner who focuses on the automotive industry, told The Post.
Tesla, at one point, is said to have also considered battery swapping but did not follow through.
More intriguing, Kampshoff said, 'At a later stage in time, if there is a new generation of batteries or a better version of the one you have, you'll be able to upgrade.' Right now, however, the upgrade 'is not possible.'
11 The Nio cars from China offer batteries that can be swapped out when they run low on power, according to reports.

What is possible – and something that could happen as soon as Divergent has more 3D printers – is the instant printing of hard-to-find auto parts. 'If you're a supplier for a certain part,' said Kampshoff, 'you eventually sunset the production line,' of parts for models you no longer make, as it is not financially worthwhile to produce them.
But, with a 3D printer and a software copy of each part's design, they can be produced instantly and, as Kampshoff put it, 'not take up space in a warehouse for 10 years.'
Cars may become cheap enough that maintaining a clunker won't be worth it. One offering that may bring that to reality could be the Slate, bankrolled in part by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.
11 The Slate, bankrolled in part by Jeff Bezos, promises to bring customization to the masses.

According to the Slate website, consumers will be able to design the car to their specifications – whether they want, say, a pick-up truck or an SUV – and have the ability to tweak the vehicle even after it is purchased, with prices expected to start at $20,000.
'Slate is exciting because it brings mass customization, which may sound like a contradiction, but it is not,' James Meigs, a senior fellow focused on technology with the Manhattan Institute, told The Post. 'If they do everything they say, it will be practical and utilitarian and reasonably priced.'
And you might not need to be one of the richest men in the world to take a shot at pulling off your own car company.
11 Kevin Czinger has created a paradigm-shifting system for building super-fast cars like this one.

'I think we will see more people taking gambles in EV startups that satisfy niches,' predicted Meigs. 'In China, we've seen micro city-cars that are good for buzzing around and slipping into tiny spaces.
'Thirty or 40 years ago, nobody in their right mind would have started a car company. But with the battery-operated vehicles, it's a little easier today, and people are willing to try different things. Maybe we'll see things we can't even predict and don't expect' – Kampshoff goes so far as to imagine self-driving campers that can function as mobile hotel rooms.
'I think the future will be exciting,' Meigs added.

Faraday Future Founder and Co-CEO, YT Jia, Shares Weekly Investor Update - FX Pushes 'Scenario-as-Store' Frontier, Signs 500-Unit Deposit Agreement with Leading MCN Telling Inc., FX Super One B2B Deposits Hit 4,000
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun 22, 2025-- Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) ('Faraday Future', 'FF' or the 'Company'), a California-based global shared intelligent electric mobility ecosystem company, today shared a weekly business update from YT Jia, Founder and Co-CEO of FF. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: Faraday Future Founder and Co-CEO, YT Jia, Shares Weekly Investor Update - FX Pushes 'Scenario-as-Store' Frontier, Signs 500-Unit Deposit Agreement with Leading MCN Telling Inc., FX Super One B2B Deposits Hit 4,000 'A quick heads-up for everyone: the FX Super One's first in-person Private Preview & Co-Creation Event is on track to take place next Sunday afternoon, June 29, in Los Angeles. Now let's start with the progress we made this past week. On S1 User Ecosystem, first, yet another stride in pre-order collection. FX has signed a deposit agreement for 500 FX Super Ones with Telling Inc., a leading MCN livestream e-commerce ecosystem service provider focused on the North American market and TikTok. With this, total B2B binding deposit agreements for non-binding preorders for the FX Super One have reached 4,000 units. Telling Inc. is the third MCN B2B co-creation partner to sign a deposit agreement with FX, and this marks yet another successful case of the 'end-to-end B2B2C' co-creation ecosystem model between the automotive industry and MCN agencies. Second, our Private Preview & Co-Creation Event on June 29th will be the first official showcase of the FX Super One for a select, invite-only audience, who would enjoy an exclusive preview, experience, and co-creation session. The entire FF and FX team is now focused on final preparations for the June 29th event, which include vehicle calibration, on-site setup, guest confirmations, coordinating test rides and test drive logistics. We are in the final sprint. Although the available spots for the event are limited, the response has been overwhelming. As of today, following a careful review and selection process, we have confirmed that we have reached over 100 guests from a diverse range of industries. We look forward to welcoming them on June 29th, where they will be the first to witness and experience this groundbreaking new species: the first-ever First Class AI-MPV for the U.S. market. Third, we have now received the non-refundable deposit for the 1,000-unit non-binding pre-order of our FX Super One from Pinnacle, one of California's largest real estate brokerages. This collaboration with Pinnacle not only catalyzed the eco-chemistry that merges the auto industry and the real estate brokerage system, it also creates a first-of-its-kind symbiotic ecosystem designed for mutual success. It allows FX to bypass the traditional dealership investment. Instead, we can tap directly into Pinnacle's assets: their network of nearly 2,000 experienced agents, their extensive open-house events across Los Angeles, and their direct access to a high-net-worth client base. This helps craft a truly immersive, experiential, and accessible buying experience where customers can encounter our vehicles in a natural, low-pressure environment. More importantly, this is a key milestone in realizing the 'Scenario-as-Store' vision I've long held: an asset-light, co-creation sales model that is now bearing fruit through FX. Looking ahead, we will continue to forge partnerships with top real estate brokerages to pioneer our scenario-based ecosystem with programs such as 'Luxury Car + Luxury Home' and 'Car Home Together,' which brings not only a vastly improved customer experience, but also lower acquisition costs, and exponential operational efficiency, all driving co-creation, sharing, and win-win outcomes. This model is designed to be a cornerstone of our strategy for driving rapid volume growth and achieving blockbuster success. It's a crucial part of our plan to fulfill the vision of An AIEV for Everyone in the U.S. Going to S2 and S3, Product and Technology: We are proud to announce the upcoming milestone release of our FF AI 2.0 system, which can now switch between over 50 languages in real-time, remember conversational context, and understand complex commands. For example, it can even do this. When you tell it: 'It's a bit warm, but I don't want the AC on,' it will intelligently recommend to adjust alternative vehicle controls for optimal comfort, such as pop the windows or close the roof shade. FF AI 2.0 is deeply integrated with Open AI. The system is scheduled to be available on the FF 91 via an upcoming OTA update, with a planned rollout for the FX line in the future. FF could be the first automotive company in North America to offer this level of AI functionality. For a diverse, multilingual market like the US, FF AI 2.0 could provide value we believe is exceptional to users. Finally, S7 Capability and System Build-Up: Since I took office as Co-CEO, the company has adopted a quarterly strategic update and management framework to ensure we can adapt quickly to market dynamics and our own business results. Next week, we will initiate the upgrade and sign-off process for the Q3 strategy execution plan and KPIs. We will also launch our performance review for the second quarter and the first half of 2025. We have a packed and pivotal week ahead. To our guests for the event, we'll be waiting to welcome you as the sun sets over California. Spoiler alert, next week's update will take you behind the scenes with exclusive highlights of our Private Preview & Co-Creation Event. Until next week.'
