Red Bull RB17 hypercar revealed in its final production form

Red Bull has revealed its first hypercar, the RB17, in its updated production form.

It’s been less than a year since the first images of the pre-production Red Bull RB17 leaked online. However, it’s only now that the first official images of the RB17 v2.0 have been revealed to the public.

The RB17 has undergone a few changes since the first concept was unveiled in 2024. The latest iteration of the hypercar features L-shaped LED headlamps, a Formula 1-style sidepod with deep undercuts, and a rear end that reminds us of the Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR. The production version is also likely to get a massive shark fin extending from the roof scoop.

Adrian Newey has been refining the design over the past few months. One of the recent changes he made was to the exhaust, which has now been moved onto the spine of the engine cover.

The Red Bull RB17 is powered by a Cosworth-built 4.5-liter V10 engine that revs to 15,000 rpm and delivers 986 hp. Additionally, a 197 hp electric motor takes over at low speeds and assists the engine with torque-fill.
