Red Bull unveils RB17, a 1,200-horsepower F1-inspired hypercarRed Bull has done what few can do – it has turned a Formula 1 car into a road-going hypercar. The new RB17 develops 1,200 horsepower and is entering the final stages before hitting the track. The Red Bull RB17 is no longer just an idea or a concept. The hypercar designed by the legendary Adrian Newey is now ready for its first serious track tests, bringing the project into its final stage of development. This is a car that blurs the line between Formula 1 and road vehicles. It develops around 1,200 horsepower, combining a highly developed naturally aspirated V10 engine with electric support, which makes it one of the most extreme cars ever produced. The special feature of this model is not only its power, but also its development philosophy. The RB17 is not designed as a classic hypercar for the road, but as a track machine that offers owners a driving experience closest to a real F1 car. Formula 1 technology The RB17 uses technology developed for Formula 1, including advanced aerodynamics and an extremely lightweight construction. The car is designed to generate enormous downforce, giving it speeds and performance rarely seen outside of professional motorsport. In practice, this means that the RB17 is not only fast on the straights, but also extremely efficient in corners, where its F1 DNA comes into play. Formula 1-level exclusivity Planned production is limited to just 50 examples, making this model one of the rarest hypercars available today. Buyers will not only get the car, but also the complete experience. Red Bull plans to organize special track days and support to help owners realize the full potential of the vehicle. Adrian Newey's signature One of the most important details of the entire project is the fact that Adrian Newey, one of the most successful engineers in Formula 1 history, is behind it. The RB17 is his personal project, which means that every detail of the car has a clear purpose and a focus on maximum efficiency. The RB17 comes at a time when most of the industry is moving towards electrification and digitalization. Red Bull is going in the opposite direction – focusing on pure mechanics, aerodynamics and driving feel. The car costs just under seven million dollars, and Autocar writes that delivery is expected at the end of next year or early 2028.
