In March 2016, $4 for what they called the "ultimate hypercar." Over the past year or so, details surrounding the upcoming Valkyrie hypercar have slowly trickled out.

The Valkyrie project is unlike anything Aston has ever endeavored to undertake. With design boss Marek Reichman and Red Bull's legendary Formula One racing guru Adrian Newey at the helm, the Valkyrie is expected to deliver performance far exceeding that of Aston's fire-breathing Vulcan track-only hypercar.

In fact, it's expected to put Aston Martin on equal footing with the latest hypercars from Ferrari, McLaren, and Porsche.

While hypercar fanatics have spent months gushing over mock-ups of Valkyrie's exterior design, Aston finally gave the public a view of the car's interior design.

According to Aston Martin interior design chief Matt Hill, creating the new hypercar's cabin has not been an easy process.

"It's been a tremendous challenge to make the interior packaging work," Hill said in a statement. "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."

Ultra-sleek hypercars designed to push the boundaries of automotive performance are rarely hospitable environments for larger occupants. However, the Valkyrie is designed to fit even the tallest of adults.

As for the exterior styling, Aston says the car we see today is roughly 95% of what the completed production vehicle will be.
