  • The product of a unique Innovation Partnership between the Aston Martin and Red Bull Racing, the Aston Martin Valkyrie is an unprecedented fusion of form and function: a car engineered to be entirely useable and enjoyable as a road car, but with the capability to perform like no road car before it on a racetrack. Its uncompromising style reflects its revolutionary nature, while possessing the form and beauty that makes it unmistakably an Aston Martin. This extraordinary collaboration between two world-leading brands has given birth to a road car, the like of which has never been seen before.

    Name

    Originally codenamed AM-RB 001, the hypercar’s name continues a tradition of Aston Martin ‘V’ cars that started over seven decades ago: Vantage, Virage, Vanquish, Vulcan and now, the Valkyrie. Aston Martin decreed a machine so radical and uncompromising demanded an equally remarkable name; the connotations of power and honour, of being chosen by the Gods are so evocative, and so pertinent to a car that only a fortunate few will ever experience. But, while its Valkyrie moniker is rooted in ancient mythology, the Aston Martin Valkyrie is a pure expression of modern technology.

    Form and Dynamics

    Built around a lightweight carbon fibre structure, the Valkyrie boasts truly radical aerodynamics for unprecedented levels of downforce in a road-legal car. Thanks to the designs of Red Bull Racing Chief Technical Officer Adrian Newey, much of this downforce was generated through underfloor aerodynamics, allowing Marek Reichman, Aston Martin EVP and Chief Creative Officer, the freedom to craft a pure yet breathtaking dramatic form that elegantly expresses both the Valkyrie’s cutting-edge dynamism and the unmistakable essence of Aston Martin.

    To cope with the extreme aerodynamic loadings at high speeds yet deliver the on-road usability and comfort levels that sit at the heart of the concept, the Valkyrie’s suspension system features innovative technology and employs principles honed by Newey over his thirty-year career. Likewise, the transmission is a clean-sheet design conceived by Newey and developed by Red Bull Advanced Technologies. While boundary-pushing performance is clearly of paramount importance, so too is exceptional efficiency and packaging. Newey’s technical knowledge has enabled the Valkyrie to be extremely light and compact yet offer genuine comfort and space for driver and passenger.

    Powertrain

    At the heart of the Valkyrie’s powertrain is its 65° naturally aspirated 6.5-litre V12 engine. Developed in conjunction with longtime technical partner Cosworth, the V12 evokes the spine-tingling, ultra-high-revving Formula 1 engines of the 1990s, and benefits from two full decades of progress in design, material and manufacturing expertise, setting exceptional new standards for maximum rpm and weight. With a certified peak power output of 1,000bhp (or 153.8 bhp-per-litre) at 10,500rpm, it can continue to a maximum 11,100rpm, unprecedented figures for a naturally aspirated, emissions-compliant road car. Peak torque is 740Nm at 7,000rpm. These peak outputs are purely delivered by the ICE (Internal Combustion Engine), with a further performance boost delivered by the battery hybrid system. A KERS-style boost system akin to those fitted to Formula 1 cars, the Aston Martin Valkyrie’s hybrid system has been developed by two main technical partners: Integral Powertrain Ltd, who supplied the bespoke electric motor, and Rimac for the lightweight hybrid battery system. As a result, the full hybrid system contributes an additional 160bhp of power and a further 280Nm of available torque with the certified max power output of Aston Martin Valkyrie standing at a stunning 1,160bhp at 10,500rpm. Equally, with the full hybrid system, peak torque will stand at 900Nm at 6,000rpm.

    Production

    Continuing the on-going Innovation Partnership, the task of engineering the Valkyrie will be shared between Q by Aston Martin Advanced and Red Bull Advanced Technologies, with production taking place at Aston Martin’s state-of-the-art, purpose-built headquarters in Gaydon. Total volume will be between 99 and 150 road cars inclusive of all remaining prototypes. A track focused version, the Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro was also developed alongside the Valkyrie, only 25 of which will be built. In collaboration with works team Heart of Racing, Aston Martin will also return to the top class of the 24 Hours of Le Mans with two Valkyrie AMR-LMH hypercars in 2025.

    This fine 1:8 scale model of the Aston Martin Valkyrie, finished in Podium Green with an all-black interior, has been handcrafted and finished in our workshops using confidential CAD data supplied by the team at Aston Martin allowing us to perfectly recreate every detail at scale. Furthermore, it has undergone detailed scrutiny by both engineering and design teams to ensure complete accuracy of representation.

    The Aston Martin Valkyrie is limited to just 199 pieces.
