Ahm no, Hypercar had four privateers last season, two of which were constructors and therefore don't fit the classic privateer scheme. The manufacturers do employ independent motorsport operations (be it pure teams or engineering companys) to run and/or develop the cars though. It's like basically any WRC manufacturer team between the mid 90s and 2013 bar the french and Skoda and none of these were considered privateers.
