Aston Martin has named its V12-engine, Adrian Newey-designed hypercar 'Valkyrie'.
Red Bull design guru Newey is working alongside the iconic British car company as part of Red Bull's collaboration with Aston Martin. The car -- originally codenamed AM-RB 001 -- continues Aston Martin's preference for names starting with V.
Aston Martin confirmed the new car's name at the Geneva Motor Show.
Aston Martin will produce 150 road-going AM-RB 001s, with an additional 25 track-focussed versions aimed at achieving those lofty claims of F1-level performance. The hypercar will cost between £2 million and £3 million depending on options, and even before its unveiling last year Aston Martin already had over 370 interested buyers. The first test drives on public roads are expected towards the end of this year, with deliveries to customers due to start in 2019.
