The C593 was Cagiva's V4 two-stroke Grand Prix machine for the 1993 season, built to replace the C592. Fitted with an aluminium beam frame, carbon brakes and fully adjustable Ohlins suspension, it was ridden by Doug Chandler, Mat Mladin and later John Kocinski, who gave the team its only win of the year at the US Grand Prix at Laguna Seca.
