Red Bull drops the mic on 2026 with the RB17 hypercar in final production form – a 1,200hp beast marking Adrian Newey’s swan song before his Aston Martin jump. This road-legal rocket, limited to just 50 units, blends F1 aero wizardry with a Cosworth V6-hybrid powertrain for sub-2s 0-100kmh insanity. As F1’s design legend exits, RB17 cements his legacy – here’s the full throttle breakdown!

RB17 Revealed: From Wind Tunnel to Street King
The RB17 evolves Red Bull’s hypercar dream, now production-ready with homologated chassis and lights. Newey’s brainchild promises F1-grade downforce – more ground effect than current track-focused hypers – targeting lap records at Top Gear or Nurburgring. Unveiled under RB17 branding, it screams purity: no badges, pure performance.
Limited to 50 customer cars, pricing whispers €5-6M each. Deliveries eyed for late 2026, post-Newey’s Ferrari F1 finale. This isn’t a show pony; it’s engineered for extremes, with active aero slicing drag while pinning corners.

Adrian Newey’s Genius: 50 Years of Aero Domination
Newey, F1’s aero oracle, designs RB17 as his magnum opus. From Williams FW14 to Red Bull dominance, his touch delivered 13 titles. RB17 channels that: wind-tunnel honed for 4.5L revving madness paired with electric punch.
He limited production to 50 for exclusivity, ensuring hand-built perfection at Milton Keynes. Post-RB17, Newey joins Aston for their Valkyrie evo – but this RB halo steals the spotlight.
Powertrain Beast: Cosworth V6 + Hybrid Fury
Heart: 1.2L Cosworth V6 turbo-hybrid, naturally aspirated vibes at 15,000rpm peaks. Outputs over 1,200hp combined – 800hp ICE, 400hp ERS – for hypercar throne claim. Paired with 4WD, it shreds quarters in 8s flat.
Electronics deliver F1-inspired DRS, seamless shifts over 300 features. Ground effect downforce generates more aero than RB20 F1 car, enabling 400kph+ top speeds safely.
RB17 targets “current track-focused hypers while lightweight,” per Red Bull. Carbon mono-tub shaves weight under 1,000kg, amplifying accel. Aero suite: active wings, diffusers sucking it to tarmac like F1.
