Aston Martin's next step into the mid-engined hypercar market has been confirmed with the release of the first official details. Project '003' is the third hypercar to be developed by Aston Martin following the Aston Martin Valkyrie and Valkyrie AMR Pro (formerly '001' and '002'). Project '003' has its DNA deeply rooted in concepts and technology currently being developed for those revolutionary road and track-only machines.

Project '003' will be built around a lightweight structure and powered by a turbocharged petrol-electric hybrid engine. Combined with active aerodynamics for outstanding levels of downforce in a road-legal car, active suspension systems providing next-level precision, control and driver connection like the Aston Martin Valkyrie and Valkyrie AMR Pro, Project '003' will possess class leading dynamics on both road and track.

While this exceptional breadth of performance is of paramount importance, Project '003' is also being designed and engineered to offer more practical concessions to road use, including space for luggage. Fully homologated and available in all markets in both left and right-hand drive, production will be limited to 500 coupe examples globally, with the first cars arriving to market in late 2021.
