Aston Martin and Red Bull team up to build supercar

Formula One outfit Red Bull and British luxury carmaker Aston Martin have announced a technology partnership to build an Aston Martin-branded supercar.

  • Red Bull’s chief designer Adrian Newey will work with Aston Martin’s design boss Marek Reichman on the car, dubbed Project AM-RB-001.
  • As part of the tie-up, Red Bull’s RB12 cars will carry the Aston Martin wings logo throughout the 2016 Formula One season starting at the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne.
  • Officially, Aston Martin’s CEO Andy Palmer says the car, now code named Project AM-RB 001 (a mashup of the company names), will be “about spectacular beauty, aerodynamic efficiency, advanced technology and getting around a race track in a fast but elegant way.”

Currently the AM-RB 001 – also known as “Project Nebula” – exists only in the virtual world: it’s been designed using computer simulations and software which are a fixture in the fast-moving world of F1, where cars are redesigned every season. The hypercar will be a synthesis between Aston, Red Bull Technologies, and Red Bull Racing, which has won four overall F1 championships since 2010. It will be a limited edition car, so the lucky owners will definitely want to look into the benefits of ceramic coating Brisbane. This rare car will only increase in value!

The Aston-Red Bull car will be expensive and rare. And it may very well change the space race among hypercar makers like Bugatti and Koenigsegg – not to mention the other players with F1 experience, namely Ferrari and McLaren.
