The astronomical price tags of ultra-luxury and hypercars continue to skyrocket, but one new vehicle has now claimed the crown as the most expensive car in the world for 2023. Introducing the all-new Valkyrie AMR Pro from Aston Martin and Red Bull Racing, an extreme track-only hypercar priced at a staggering $4.4 million.
Only 40 AMR Pro models will be produced, but for that towering sum, owners will experience breathtaking performance never before seen on four wheels. Powered by a rev-happy 6.5-litre Cosworth V12 that screams to 11,000 rpm, the AMR Pro outputs 1,000+ horsepower while weighing under 1,000 kilograms.
Accelerating from 0-60 mph takes under three seconds thanks to the AMR Pro’s insane power-to-weight ratio. Top speed is estimated at over 225 mph. Owners will experience lateral g-forces exceeding 3G on corners. To deliver such extremes, the AMR Pro boasts F1 technology like a diffuser, underfloor venturi tunnels, oversized rear wing, and the most advanced active suspension system ever fitted to a road car.
The interior is all business with a carbon fiber monocoque, racing seats, and removable steering wheel. Comfort takes a backseat to unrelenting performance and lap times closest to an open-wheel F1 car.
With such racetrack capabilities, the AMR Pro demolishes the previous most expensive car title holder – the $3.4 million Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+. For deep-pocketed collectors, the AMR Pro represents the pinnacle of speed, engineering and exclusivity.
Yet its astronomical price is about more than just peacocking. The AMR Pro is the purest expression of Aston Martin and Red Bull’s F1 technology and know-how. Owners pay for the privilege of experiencing a piece of Motorsport history created without compromise.
The AMR Pro may be unattainable to all but the ultra wealthy. But its seven-figure price represents the bleeding edge of automotive engineering and aerodynamics. For a lucky few owners, it will provide a driving experience unmatched anywhere on the planet – for those who can afford the title of world’s most expensive new car.
