Aston Martin has created an extraordinary interior design for the Valkyrie hypercar. The look is intimidating and powerful, yet sophisticated and sleek. The cockpit is an intriguing teardrop shape that complements the lower tub contours running down either side of the cockpit floor. For optimum interior space, the seats are mounted directly to the tub, which allows both driver and passenger to enjoy a reclined ‘feet-up’ position reminiscent of today’s Formula One and Le Mans Prototype race cars.
Matt Hill, Aston Martin Creative Director of Interiors said, “It’s been a tremendous challenge to make the interior packaging work. We’ve embraced Red Bull Racing’s Formula One ethos and approached from a different angle than conventional road car design. In this instance, we’ve started from a position where you think something is impossible and work at it until you find a way to make it work. We’ve been fighting for millimeters everywhere, but the battle has been worth it, as it’s been fantastic seeing customers try the interior buck for size. They love the ritual of getting in and how it feels to be sat behind the wheel. They’re also genuinely surprised at how the car just seems to swallow them. You really do have to sit in it to believe there is genuine space for two large adults.”
The Aston Martin Valkyrie was designed to impress the moment you step inside.
