Aston Martin’s New Supercharged Valkyrie AMR Pro Designed for Track-Only

The new Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro hypercar is the supercharged track-only variant of the Valkyrie and is said to able to lap Le Mans in three minutes and 20 seconds.

The new Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro hypercar is the track-only version of the Valkyrie and is said to be capable of lapping Le Mans in three minutes and 20 seconds.

Building on the technology partnership between Red Bull Advanced Technologies (RBAT) and Aston Martin, the track only version is powered by a 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine revving to 11,000rpm. In addition, it uses a unique version of the Valkyrie chassis which is 380mm longer in the wheelbase, 96mm wider in track at the front, and 115mm at the rear. A new aerodynamic package also adds 266mm length to double the downforce in comparison to the Valkyrie.

Weight savings have also been gained through the new ultra-lightweight carbon fiber bodywork, Perspex windscreen, and the deletion of the battery-electric hybrid system.

More details of the Valkyrie AMR Pro’s specification and performance will be released later this year, but with a target lap time around the 8.5-mile 24 Hours Le Man’s circuit of 3 minutes 20 seconds – the Valkyrie AMR Pro is on par to challenge the front running LMP1 cars for the win at Le Mans.

Owners of the new track-only Valkyrie AMR Pro will receive the opportunity to attend a bespoke track day experience hosted by Aston Martin at a selection of International FIA Circuits around the world. The experience will include track and pit lane access, support from the Aston Martin Valkyrie Instructor team, as well as FIA exclusive racewear and a VIP hosted dinner.

Deliveries are scheduled to begin towards the end of this year, with all 40 Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro vehicles (and two prototypes) set to be left-hand drive.
