It’s very busy these days in Aston Martin. After presenting the Vantage Roadster a few days ago, this time the new Valkyrie AMR Pro is coming.
Originally presented as a concept, Valkyrie has undergone a number of changes and improvements. The overall weight of the vehicle has been reduced by removing the hybrid parts, a new rear wing has been installed, the wheelbase has been reduced, and many carbon parts have been installed.
Aston Martin CEO Tobias Moers said: “The entire Aston Martin Valkyrie program has been an extraordinary adventure in engineering.”
The cars will be built in just 40 units, with a delivery schedule in late 2021.
The Valkyrie AMR Pro is powered by a 6.5-liter V12 engine with 1,000 hp at 11,000 rpm, which is less than the previous version with 1,100 hp. The engine was made by the British company Crosworth. With twice the thrust, the AMR Pro achieves lateral acceleration of more than 3G.
Tobias Moers also said: “As an expression of the passion and expertise that can be found within Aston Martin and its closest technical partners, Valkyrie AMR Pro is a project beyond compare, a true‘ no rules ’track-only version. The Valkyrie AMR Pro is a testament to Aston Martin’s commitment to pure performance and this DNA performance will be evident in our future product portfolio. Nothing else looks like it, nothing else sounds like it, and I am absolutely certain nothing else will drive like it! ”
More information will be released later this year, and all cars will be left-hand drive.
