Aston Martin is currently in the midst of one of the
most exciting periods in its history. The
British automaker is revolutionizing itself with new models, new technologies
and AMG powertrains.
Aston is sticking with what it does
best; designing and producing beautiful front-engined performance cars.
That will soon change when the insane AM-RB 001 hypercar arrives
before the end of the decade.
Co-developed with Red Bull, the AM-RB 001 will pave
the way for future Astons and even inspire a more affordable mid-engined model.
While we have no idea how this mid-engined car could look, the Aston depicted
in these images from designer Adrien Fuinel gives us high hopes.
Fuinel dubs his creation the Aston Martin RR and has
been inspired by the track-only Vulcan for much of its front fascia, including
the slim LED headlights, huge front grille and protruding splitter.
The rest of the car then adopts a low-slung and
exceptionally sleek look, typical of a mid-engined supercar. It is also free of
any obvious side or rear air intakes resulting in beautifully crisp and flowing
lines without any ugly obstructions. At the rear, there is a taillight design
reminiscent of the One-77, four exhaust pipes, an aggressive diffuser and a
small air brake.
