Aston Martin wanted to create a hypercar that was a technological marvel and a masterpiece of design when they set out to build the Valkyrie, the brainchild of famed F1 designer Adrian Newie. Thus, in 2013, Adrian Newey, Aston Martin, and the Red Bull Formula One team collaborated to develop the Valkyrie.

The Cosworth-sourced naturally aspirated V12 engine of the Valkyrie produces 545 pound-feet of torque and 1,000 horsepower. The battery-electric system by Rimac and Integral Powertrain Ltd. delivers an additional 160 hp and 206 lb-ft of torque.

Even though the Valkyrie had several powerplant alternatives, including a twin-turbo V6, Newey chose the naturally aspirated V12 because it required less cooling. Aston Martin was after the One-77's V12, but Newey insisted on having a specially built Cosworth engine.

Cosworth initially created a three-cylinder prototype to assess the viability of the V12. The result was an impressively performing hypercar that satisfied global requirements to become a street-legal vehicle.
