Aston Martin Affirms “Project 003” Hypercar for 2021

Aston Martin Holdings Ltd. has released a teaser image of its so-called Project 003 supercar and confirms plans to introduce the vehicle in late 2021.

Production will be limited to 500 units, and pricing is expected to start at about £1 million ($1.3 million). The darkened image hints at a wide stance with a swoopy design.

The new model will be based on the upcoming Valkyrie (001) and track-oriented Valkyrie AMR PRO (002) models, which Aston Martin co-developed with Red Bull Racing’s Advanced Technologies unit.

All three models will feature a hybrid-electric powertrain with a mid-engine layout, a lightweight structure, advanced aerodynamic features and an active suspension. The 003 will be slightly more practical—with improved comfort and luggage room—than the other models, according to the carmaker.
