Aston Martin will run two Valkyrie AMR-LMH hypercars at next year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans and the FIA World Endurance Championship.
The British manufacturer has been working on a Le Mans hypercar for many years but originally shelved the project. It was revived last year and two specially-built Valkyrie-based hypercars will be raced by works partner Heart of Racing. In addition to racing in the World Endurance Championship, the Valkyrie AMR-LMH will also compete in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship.

Like the road-going Valkyrie, as well as the track-only Valkyrie AMR Pro, the Le Mans hypercar will use a 6.5-liter naturally-aspirated Cosworth V12, although Aston says it will be modified to comply with Balance of Performance requirements and withstand the challenges of endurance racing. The race car will also ditch the road car’s hybrid system.
Development of the car is well underway, and the car has already been tested at Silverstone and the Portimao circuit in Portugal.
The Valkyrie will be the only car competing in the Hypercar series with a V12. Entrants from companies including Ferrari, Peugeot, and Toyota have twin-turbocharged V6s while the likes of LMH cars from Lamborghini, BMW, Porsche, and Cadillac have V8s. In the sound department, Aston Martin should have an easy win.
“In 2025, with our works team the Heart of Racing, we intend to put two Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR-LMH hypercars on the grid, to compete alongside a fantastic array of the world’s best sportscar manufacturers, and we are doing all we can to ensure that we can fight at the front of that space,” Aston Martin’s head of Endurance Motorsport Adam Carter said. “The Valkyrie AMR-LMH programme is on schedule with a significant amount of development taking place behind the scenes and ahead of the car’s track debut later this summer. We then anticipate an intensive period of testing to put miles on the car and learn all we can ahead of its planned homologation in the autumn.”
