Knowledge Through Experience
There's no denying that all our knowledge begins with experience; how else are our cognitive faculties awakened if not through objects that stir our senses and sometimes stimulate our imagination directly, sometimes provoke our brain to compare, connect or separate these objects, and thus to process the raw material of perception to gain knowledge — or experience — of the objects?

Titles, records and everyday work are experiences that gave 9ff the knowledge to create this sensory homage. The precise, mature yet powerful design of the CR-42 reflects the philosophy adopted by this Dortmund-based small-series manufacturer. Elegant, aerodynamically efficient and with increased precision. It's wealth of details makes this two-seater a hit on all fronts: from the inspiring, extremely lightweight disc wheels with patented central mount to the precision-adjustment chassis complete with all imaginable components, through to the add-on parts, some of which are made from carbon fibre.

These elements combine practically but also work well individually.

But the real highlight of the 9ff CR-42 mid-engine sports car kept under wraps: a 4.1-litre Boxer engine featuring an impressive 420 bhp and a powerful 435 Nm torque. This engine enables the vehicle to achieve breathtaking driving performance and superior power development that blow all the benchmarks in this segment out of the water.

The 9ff Cayman can achieve that all-important sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.4 seconds, and around just 10 seconds later the CR-42 even reaches the 200 km/h mark. Even the smaller engine variants — with 3.8-litre capacity — put the competitors in the shade for performance in an AMS comparison test.

The experience gathered is now reflected in the 9ff CR42 as truly "tangible" knowledge.

420 bhp/309 KW at 7450 rpm.
435 Nm at 6420 rpm.
Over 400 Nm at between 4500 and 7500 rpm.
340 Nm at an amazingly low 2100 rpm.
These performance statistics make the 9ff CR-42 a high-performance sports car, boasting an excellent power-to-weight ratio and extreme driving performance, that is ideal for everyday use.

The CR-42 costs a total of EUR 129,000.00 incl. VAT and is available now in small series. All individual components are available for sale separately.

There is no doubt: All our understanding begins with experience. What else should awaken our intellect if not objects appealing to our senses, producing, on the one hand, ideas all by themselves, while, on the other hand, inviting our intellectual capacity to compare, associate or to divide them in order to transform the raw material of our sensory impressions into the sort of understanding called experience?

Titles, records and everyday work are experiences which have brought 9ff to an understanding that gave birth to the idea of creating this homage to our senses.

The clear, no-nonsense, but nevertheless powerful design of the CR42 is a clear mirror reflecting the philosophy of the small-series manufacturer from Dortmund.

Elegant, aerodynamically efficient and with a sharpened precision.

The two-seater convinces in every respect by its love for detail. First to mention are the excitingly designed and very light disc wheels equipped with a patented central locking system and the precisely adjustable chassis comprising any imaginable component and, last but not least, the attached parts partially manufactured from carbon.

Cleverly combined, but also reasonable in detail.

But, the 9ff CR42’s highlight is hidden deep inside the mid-engined sports car: A 4.1L flat engine generously offering its 420hp as well as its powerful 435Nm of torque. This is the basis for thrilling driving performances and a superior power development vaporising any benchmark in its segment.

The 9ff Cayman masters the sprint of prestige to 100km/h in 4.4 seconds, and about 10 seconds later, the CR42 already passes the 200km/h mark.

Even the smaller engine version – with a displacement of 3.8 litres – outshone all its competitors with its performance during a comparative test at AMS.

The understanding gained there may by now be experienced through the 9ff CR42.

9ff “CR-42” :

420HP / 309KW at 7,450rpm
435Nm at 6,420rpm
More than 400Nm between 4,500 and 7,500rpm
340Nm at surprisingly low 2,100rpm

These performance data make the 9ff CR-42 a high-performance sports car absolutely suitable for everyday driving, featuring a very good power/weight ratio while guaranteeing extreme driving performances.

The CR-42 is offered at an overall vehicle price of 129,000.00 EURO incl. VAT, ex works 9ff, and is from now on available in small series.

Of course, any component is also separately available.
