The Sauber C14 was the Formula One car with which the Sauber team competed in the 1995 Formula One World Championship. The number 29 seat was initially taken by Austrian driver Karl Wendlinger, while the number 30 seat was taken by Germany's Heinz-Harald Frentzen. However, Wendlinger underperformed and was replaced by Frenchman Jean-Christophe Boullion for most of the remainder of the year. The team's test driver was Argentine Norberto Fontana.
The C14 was the only V8 powered Sauber F1 car until the BMW Sauber F1.06 in 2006 and also the last Hinwil-based car to utilize Castrol-branded lubricant products until the Audi R26 in the 2026 season.
