The transition from a virtual concept to a physical titan is complete. Red Bull Advanced Technologies has officially pulled the curtain back on the final production design of the RB17, a track-only hypercar that represents the ultimate engineering expression of legendary designer Adrian Newey. As Newey prepares for his next chapter, the hybruid V-10 hypercar serves as his definitive parting gift to the world of high-performance machinery.
The final design is a masterclass in “form following function,” featuring an aggressive carbon-fiber monocoque and a sculpted aerodynamic profile capable of generating nearly two tons of downforce. At the heart of this beast sits a mid-mounted, naturally aspirated V10 engine that screams to a staggering 15,000 RPM. This powertrain, paired with a sophisticated hybrid system, delivers over 1,200 horsepower to a vehicle that weighs less than 900 kilograms. The result is a machine that Red Bull claims will deliver Formula 1-level lap times in the hands of a capable private owner.
With only 50 units slated for production each expected to be priced upwards of $6 million USD, the RB17 is an exclusive entry into the Red Bull racing family. Owners will receive a bespoke driver development program, including access to Red Bull’s elite simulators and track-side support.
