The final Red Bull car designed by Adrian Newey, the RB17 hypercar, has been unveiled at the 2024 Goodwood Festival of Speed. This track-only car, limited to just 50 units, features a semi-stressed mid-mounted naturally-aspirated V10 engine with a redline of 15,000rpm, aiming for “F1-equivalent laptimes”. Weighing under 900kg, the RB17 can achieve top speeds exceeding 218mph (350kph). Designed by a team of engineers from Red Bull Advanced Technologies over several years, Newey described the project as a magnificent journey from concept to delivery. Each RB17 client will receive a full customer journey, including the opportunity to drive on elite circuits, personalized exterior and interior options, driver development training, and tailored car modifications. Red Bull F1 team boss Christian Horner expressed pride in the RB17, highlighting its technical innovation, performance focus, and emotional appeal, anticipating its status as a future classic in the hypercar world.
