Recently, Aston Martin officially released the official map of its top sports car, the Valkyrie quasi-production version. The new car was jointly designed by Aston Martin and Red Bull F1 Racing Team. The new car is scheduled to be produced at the end of 2018, with a total of 150 units, which will be officially delivered to customers in 2019. The Aston Martin Valkyrie quasi-production version has adopted more mass production design than the previously released AM-RB 001 prototype. The official announcement that the quasi-production version of this release has reached mass production 95 %.

The new car, which basically maintains the aerodynamic design of the AM-RB 001 prototype, features a new front spoiler that looks very similar to the F1 car. Even the new car does not have a front bumper design to see the overall front suspension. In addition, the Valkyrie quasi-production version is equipped with a lightweight headlamp set and a wiper. In addition, the car is not designed with a traditional exterior mirror, but is replaced by a camera and displayed on the LCD screen on both sides of the A-pillar in the car.

On the side, Valkyrie's overall look is very similar to the current Hypercar design, but the semi-open front and rear wheel shapes and side lines look more complicated. At present, Aston Martin has not disclosed the aerodynamic effects that these lines can bring. It is worth mentioning that the new car also uses a rare gull wing door design.

Valkyrie doesn't have a so-called rear bumper design. The huge tail diffuser even protrudes the entire body. In order to make the air at the bottom of the new car pass quickly, even the exhaust is laid out on the rear of the new car. Paired with a rear spoiler and a new taillight set, it feels very strange.

Valkyrie's philosophy in the interior design is minimalist ergonomics. Thanks to the carbon-fibre single-shell body, we can see the interior without any modifications in the car. The bare carbon fiber pattern is enough to lift the desire to drive. In addition, most of the operable physical buttons and an OLED display are designed on top of a detachable steering wheel that is close to the rectangle, where it is responsible for displaying all vehicle information and functional operations of the new car.

Aston Martin announced that the interior space of the new car is enough for two adults. The seat made of pure carbon fiber is almost integrated with the body (and can not be adjusted), but can be customized according to the customer's body, and the seat is more Close to the driving position of the Le Mans racing car.

In terms of power, Valkyrie will adopt a hybrid design, in which the 6.5L naturally aspirated V12 engine will have a maximum power of more than 912 hp, plus a new kinetic energy recovery system with a combined maximum power of 1,146 hp. The transmission will match the 7-speed gearbox.
