Aston Martin and Curv Racing Simulators have announced the AMR-C01-R Hypercar Edition, a limited-edition racing simulator created to celebrate the Aston Martin Valkyrie prototypes competing in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Limited to just 24 units worldwide, the new simulator arrives as a piece aimed at collectors and motorsport enthusiasts. The model will be offered with liveries inspired by the #007 and #009 race cars, both linked to the British brand’s participation in the traditional endurance race.
The units are finished in Aston Martin Podium Green, with contrasting yellow or red details, reproducing visual elements from the Valkyrie prototypes that represent the manufacturer at Le Mans.
The project involved Darren Turner, Aston Martin high-performance test driver, three-time class winner at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and founder of Curv Racing Simulators. According to the company, the goal was to create a driving experience as close as possible to the cockpit position of the Aston Martin Valkyrie.
Among the main features of the AMR-C01-R Hypercar Edition are a 49-inch curved display, NVIDIA RTX graphics and a new steering wheel directly inspired by the Aston Martin Valkyrie. Each steering wheel unit is made to order and can receive customised colour configurations on the grips and rotary selectors.
Darren Turner said the simulator’s development took into account the driver position, steering feel and overall racing experience. “We wanted it to feel as close as possible to sitting in the Valkyrie Hypercar,” he said.
Marek Reichman, executive vice president and chief creative officer at Aston Martin, highlighted that the Valkyrie is among the most extreme models ever developed by the brand. For the executive, that character was transferred naturally to the simulator, which also incorporates direct references from the cars used at Le Mans.
Hand-built to order in the United Kingdom, the AMR-C01-R Hypercar Edition uses a carbon-fibre monocoque, integrating structure, technology and finishing in a sophisticated-looking package.
The Aston Martin AMR-C01-R Hypercar Edition is now available to order, with a starting price of €68,000 (£58,750), excluding taxes.
