Blazin Rodz Introduces Hybrid Hypercar Based on the 1969 Camaro at SEMA 2025

The limited-production hybrid hypercar project will feature all-carbon fiber bodywork, 1,600 combined horsepower & speeds in excess of 200 mph…

Blazin Rodz returned to the SEMA Show this year with a first-of-its-kind, limited-production hybrid hypercar that redefines the 1969 Camaro from the ground up, pairing a sculpted carbon fiber body with a state-of-the-art chassis built entirely from bespoke, precision-machined components engineered to hypercar standards, company officials stated in a press release.

SEMA attendees were able to view an OE-standard 1:3-scale model of the Camaro, along with a full-size front-end assembly highlighting the advanced, patent-pending suspension setup and hybrid drivetrain in the SEMA Future Tech Studio Booth. The Camaro shared the space with the 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle “Doughboy” that Blazin Rodz revealed at SEMA 2024.

The 1969 Camaro Hybrid Hypercar Project Specs & Availability

The 1969 Chevrolet Camaro hybrid hypercar project will combine cutting-edge automotive technology with the very latest production techniques, noted the release. This includes the company’s partnership with HP Additive Manufacturing 3D Printing, which will help to ensure precise components and bracketry are created in the quickest possible time to meet the project’s timeline.

The exterior design, penned by Sean Smith, transforms the Camaro into a carbon fiber masterpiece with modern supercar proportions and presence, the company said. The aim is to provide customers with an extraordinary driving experience.

Outside of the exterior design, the Blazin Rodz team has set itself several goals, including:

  • 1600 combined horsepower from the twin-turbo R07 V-8 and axial flux electric motor
  • Top speed of 210 mph
  • Extensively modified carbon fiber bodywork over modern chassis
  • Launch control using torque fill, throttle ramp-in and electronic clutch control to enable controlled takeoff, anti-stall behavior, consistent launches and shifts
  • Traction control with electric motor torque modulation
  • Regenerative braking blended with hydraulic braking to maintain battery state of charge while driving
  • In-house hybrid control firmware, coordinating torque delivery, clutch engagement, regenerative braking and performance logic
  • Custom 800V high-performance battery pack developed by Raeon UK for Blazin Rodz.

The Blazin Rodz Camaro hypercar project will also receive a patent-pending suspension system combining torsion bars with pneumatic air springs and hydraulic pushrods packaged in a variable-rate design that will continuously adapt stiffness and ride height in real time. The company says this innovation will be capable of delivering comfort on the road and precision on the track, while setting a new benchmark for performance-focused hybrid engineering.

Blazin Rodz is currently working toward the completion of the initial fabrication and engineering phase as development continues. The team says it will transition into testing and calibration while initiating early sales of the limited-production series leading up to SEMA 2026. While undisclosed, the price is expected to start from $1.6 million, and there will be a comprehensive range of customization options to ensure each vehicle will be unique to its owner.
