Founded by Mike Costin and Keith Duckworth (the Cos and worth respectively) in September 1958, and initially operating out of a garage in north London, the company had one mission: to change the boundaries of what could be achieved through engineering by ‘messing about with race engines’. And so Cosworth was born.
Moving to Northampton in 1964, the company would quickly make a name for itself with the creation of the iconic Double Four Valve engine, better known as the legendary DFV. With 155 wins in Formula 1 from 1967-1983, the DFV became the power unit of choice for driver and manufacturer world champions, and propelled Cosworth to become the most successful engine manufacturer in F1.
.Since 1987, Cosworth has also been innovating in the field of motorsport electronics. Founded under the name Pi Research, Cosworth Electronics created one of the first “black box” and data loggers to be used in motorsport. It has since gone on to revolutionise the role that electronics and data analytics plays in motor racing – with presence in almost all race series from Formula 1 to IndyCar, World Rally to World Endurance, and counting every major automotive manufacturer as a customer.
At the 2018 24 Hours of Le Mans, no fewer than 43 cars were supplied with Cosworth electronics and powertrain solutions. It was the sole supplier of LMP2 electronics and equipped five LMP1 cars with a whole host of Cosworth products.
Cosworth already has an order book in place up to 2026 with £320m from long-term contracts and revenues at record levels. Partnerships with General Motors, Aston Martin, Honda, Haitec and Porsche allow Cosworth to play a key role in determining the future direction of the automotive industry.
Its involvement in the UK government’s Multi-Car Collision Avoidance project places Cosworth at the very heart of the connected and autonomous vehicle agenda.
Whether it is through propulsion, hybridisation, connectivity or automation technology, Cosworth is ready to solve the new challenges on the road, racetrack and in the air with the mobility solutions of the future.
Faster Brands are looking to attract licensing partners who share Cosworth core values of engineering excellence and innovation to develop signature products that are best in class.
