For the last 60 years Cosworth has continued to deliver firsts on the racetrack and the road, as they have since 1958, when Mike Costin and Keith Duckworth formed their new company to “make a living messing around with racing engines.”

Approaching their first decade, Cosworth launch the DFV engine in Formula 1. It wins first time out with Jim Clarke and goes on to become the most successful Formula 1 engine of all time.

Cosworth enters the mass production road market with the the BDA, developed for use by Ford in their Escort road and rally cars. Variants of the engine went on to great success in Formula 2 and Formula Atlantic.

Cosworth launches the DFX, a turbo-charged version of the DFV into the U.S, where it won ten consecutive Indy 500 races and dominated the series for a decade.

In 1984, Cosworth launch the WAA engine for the Mercedes’ 190E, Cosworth’s largest mass-produced engine of the time. A year later, the legendary Cosworth YBB hits the road, in the new Ford Sierra RS Cosworth.

Cosworth’s present-day electronics division is founded by Cambridge University researcher, Tony Purnell under the name Pi Research.

Cosworth launches the XB engine, an all-new design built both in the UK and USA, leading to Nigel Mansell taking the IndyCar Drivers Championship that year.

Cosworth continues its history of innovative firsts with VIDS1. Revolutionary technology for synchronising video with logged data allowing easy cross-referencing of how car and driver are performing on the track.

Cosworth becomes the sole engine supplier for the Champ Car World Series with Cosworth Electronics supplying the complete set of car electronics to both Champ Car and the IRL Indycar series.

With the US Navy in need of a high performance, fuel efficient propulsion solution for its jet fuelled UAVs, Cosworth developed the AG2, a ‘flat’ twin engine with unrivalled fuel efficiency and durability.

Cosworth begins exclusive delivery of custom scrutineering for the Intercontinental Le Mans Cup (now the WEC) and a new 4G telemetry system, Live on Air ™ provides a dedicated network for the IndyCar series.

Cosworth develops gasoline engine technology to yield lower CO2 emissions with its 2.0-litre passenger car engine. The design minimised frictional and pumping losses to keep efficiency high.

Working as part of a UK consortium, Cosworth uses its expertise in the Multi-Car Collision Avoidance project (MuCCA), aimed at improving operation and safety of autonomous and connected vehicles.

Cosworth selected to develop the new Aston Martin Valkyrie 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 hypercar engine, poised to redefine the limits of road car performance.

Cosworth partners with GMA to develop and produce the 3.9-litre V12 engine that powers the T.50 supercar. We delivered the highest-revving naturally aspirated engine ever fitted to a production road car.

Cosworth acquires Silverstone based future technologies company, Delta. This pivotal move will assist in sealing the companies future – developing sustainable alternative propulsion solutions.
