I just wish if Jeremy Clarkson walked in and said
“This is the fastest NA V12 engine... In the world”
I said that in his voice 😂😂
@@asharabahmed2502 I've just done the same 😂😂
TVR held that record for 20 years with their NA V12, 960bhp
Why people can't get over it I don't understand.
Altamash Sarwar
It’s a joke dude. It’s funny because he would have said that.
My mouth dropped when he said it was naturally aspirated and I realized that there were in fact no turbos on it. My god, 1000hp on a NA motor. Thats beyond amazing! And then....AND THEN the noise. I can't wait to see it in the hands of The Stig.
one word, Cosworth.
@@3O2MuStAnG yeah with almost 3 times the displacement and not road legal
@@3O2MuStAnG It's 16 litres? Be okay for a crane/tank/industrial use.
@@3O2MuStAnG
What's it fuelled by though?
If it's for dragsters it's 90% nitromethane.
If it were that easy to get 2000hp from an engine, nobody would just turbos.
OK, had a Google.
You're comparing a 16.5l engine running on 112ron fuel to a 6.5l engine on 95ron or 98ron.
It's still just a dopey old pushrod V8.
*And* it'll weigh well over 300kg.
"POWAAAAAAHH!" -some guy that made this show.
Some fat, old British bloke who now works for an American company named after a forest in South America
Roger Toledo who has more life and charisma left in him than current ones :D
Yeah, because we all know how great The Grand Tour was. A whole (still scripted) episode about how boring it is when episodes are not scripted. At least the Top Gear team never set out to waste entire episode trying to prove some stupid point. That only happens when there is no-one around to rein Clarkson in.
You mean Jeremy Clarkson from that British top gear show
SPEEEEEEEEEEEEED!
If this is the final great NA engine we get before the electric cars take over, I‘m fine with it. Just jealous of the few people getting to drive the Valkyrie...
Sounds like the engine and the electric motor make a really good duo, I don't see why the engine would go away anytime soon.
zolikoff Give it five, maybe ten years, that’s it for the combustion engine :(
@@TheRacingMonkey Hai Man Love your channel
@@Vallecaucanisimo electric motor itself its light and compact, but the battery is bulky and heavy if you want make them big enough to decently perform with today's battery tech. I hope the future will bring lighter battery with same energy or at least more energy dense with same weight as today.
Electric cars will always be an alternative mode of transportation. Clean burning fuels, like hydrogen combustion are the future, AND we get to keep combustion engines, with zero emissions and reuse most if not all of our current gasoline/diesel infrastructure. It's already there and built, just needs modifications and fill it up with a different liquid.
At least, that's the most logical way forward, but unfortunately with most governments being run by idiots, we may fall into an all electric trap, in which case, prepare for innevitable and potentially apocalyptic events to follow an electrical blackout from any numerous advanced weaponry or even conventionally methods of interrupting a power grid. Putting all our eggs in one basket, and fully relying on the electric grid to handle hundreds of millions of cars in addition to everything it can already barely handle, sounds like a pretty piss poor idea.
When a road car sounds better than an F1 car
Happens alot these days
Not when they were raw N/A High RPM revving past 20k times
Correction "When a road car sounds better than today's F1 cars".
Older V12, V10, and V8 engines in F1 are pure eargasm ! Just like that beautiful Cosworth V12 we just heard in this video (if not better) !
@@Thatrollingmaster69 I think that the 2020 Shelby gt500 sounds better than all of those
@@JessidGallardo I don't know about that... Don't get me wrong. I really like the sound of the new Shelby GT500s' very "dirty", rumbly, amazing muscle car sound.
But with that said, i have a special place for high revving, screaming, high pitched engines, like the one Valkyrie has ! They don't make engines like that anymore, so there is also a nostalgic factor to this engine, and it reminds me a lot of good old Formula 1 !
I like that captions say "Music" and then "Applause" when they rev the engine. Truly a masterpiece.
The last 40 secs was pure eargasm 😍😍😍
I want to get this engine pregnant.
The engine will make you pregnant.
@@winkerr2338 😂😂😂😂
I want this engine to penetrate me. and then cuddle.
that engine will get you and your whole family pregnant 😂😂😂
Well it's got 12 holes
The sound like f1 engine:).
No it sounds way better👍
@@jarnocopier8784 I'm talking about v12 f1 engine:).
reminds me of the LFA engine note
It is actually a F1 engine
TheArhiArhus F1 hasn’t had V12s in a very long time and they were never high revving. It sounds a bit like the V10s that lasted til the beginning of 2006, but those revved waaaaaay higher than this.
That engine sounds absolutely glorious ❤️
This engine makes a really nice sound.
I want to drop one in my Honda Fit.
SoCalFreelance I hope someone does
No a Smart Forto
Your fit is FWD tho.
@@decadentnightmare6602 Dude, I'm just trolling. That has to be a $250,000 engine.
@@SoCalFreelance i hope they will sell its 3 cylinder 250hp version.. perhaps i can swap it into my honda jazz
MY GOD THAT IS THE MOST AMAZING THING I'VE HEARD ALL YEAR!
I love the way car manufacturers have embraced the v12 as a way of honouring the art of building the best ICE. Reminds me of what luxury watch makers did to honour the mechanical movement.
Those revs gave me chills! Awesome motor
Once it wants to breathe, any Turbo engine gets in fear
I just woke up this morning now, and that freaking na 6.5L V12 made my day, sounds like 100 f1 cars rushing together 😍😍😍😋
Best part starts at 3:12. You're welcome. My jeans got a little tighter after hearing that symphony. Bloody hell! 😁
V12 V12 V12❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Meanwhile, american engines be like " 7.2 liters and an IMMENSE 300 HP!"
America needs 11.4 litres and a supercharger for 1,000 hp.
Naturally aspirated, 2100hp american V8. Now go cry in a corner. www.sonnysracingengines.com/engines/drag-racing-engines/sar-1005-2100-hp
This engine is a fortune and it needs to be rebuilt every 60 thousand miles an amazing engine but shouldn't really be compared
@@shaned1500 this one is same
@@shaned1500 Prove it.
I absolutely loved that they were honest enough to say how many km it will do..
Who will drive a Valkyrie that much ever?
The sound of the Engine was good,anyway back to the Grand Tour
Then be no why you are coming back here just crying like baby for old top gear crew. I don't get it why people are so obsessed about the trio.
Altamash you’ve obviously never watched the old top gear
@@jameshunt8627 I have not watched the entire series but yes some of the episodes on RUclips and there after I have watched complete Grand tour series. But I think others also get chance to express their passion in regards automotive journalism. Which includes mine favorite Chris Harris. I know this one was bit off.
@@jameshunt8627I know they were the best at their time but you seriously have to see Chris Harris that man is also not less than trio I bet you. But nonetheless I don't disrespect trio I also admire their journalism but I also adore the work of other journalist.
Altamash I’ve been watching Chris Harris for a while, way before he was on Top Gear, his really good. But the rest of the crew on the current top is not so good, lack of humour as well.
Remarkable engineering once again pushing the limits!!!!
Please remember people that the weight of the engine is with the chassis components on it. This engine makes up the structural component of the car, so the car weighs less. Pulling high g's in the car puts enormous stress on the engine, so this is quite a masterpiece. Amazing it works at all.
Mo powa baby! Yo, if that’s the sound of that engine without the complete exhaust....we’re in for a treat!
The pinnacle of automobile. Wow. That sound is heavenly.
Carfection was the first to get a look see and they had s great interview with cosworth. Still enjoying this engine look see
Yh thats what i said. I liked their video it was more detailed n the revs were immense
was they really first? or did they just upload their video first
Oh my... I could listen to that symphony all day...
153.8hp/litre. Is there a N/A engine with a higher figure?
Perhaps not the only other 2 that come close is the 458 and the mighty s2000
There are racing engines with more power per liter. 4piston has a Honda K24 that makes 500 wheel hp naturally aspirated. The old 3.0 liter V10s made 300+ hp/liter. But no, as far as production goes, I don't know a production engine with more power/liter
Motorcycles still reign supreme in that regard, but for road legal 4-wheel vehicles I dont know if anything comes close.
The closest I can think of is the 991.2 GT3 RS. 520hp from 3.996l makes 130 hp/litre.
Can you accept the RX-8? 240hp from 1.308l makes 183.4 hp/litre.
Mazda R26B
Did you guys just watch Henry Cathcpole's Carfection video?
Yep, it was far better.
Yes it was better
Yes, It was much better...
Carfection's video was so much better......but that's nothing new :)
Absolutely right. It was less shouty, more engaging, better structured. Altogether better.
Most amazing v12 sound ever!!! It sounds like a f1!! 👌👌👌👌
I love how the final times of petrol engines era are comming! Same happened with the vapor motor, on his final days, his tech was top of the line, but wasn't a match for ICE. Now same happenes with electric.
Neverthless, that sound is fantastic!!!👍
a reliable engine with 11,000 rpms is nuts
1.30 “There will be a hybrid boost element fitted “
Walks away retching and cursing .
Sounds better than contemporary F1 engines.
the best thing about this engine is the overwhelming sound...i like carrera gt and m5 v10, but this...omg
Absolutely fantastic! The pinnacle! 👍
Aston Martin=Marvellous Engineering
Can’t wait for this to be in Forza Horizon 4! It was on the car list along with the Mercedes Project One.
I guess not
@@hassansaeed5187 lmao fr
🤞FH5 🙄
Project is obv in it
@@gowen_places_5471 not horizon 4 bro, wdym
@@hassansaeed5187 have you seen the trailer for Horizon 5? i'm talking about that game
It sounds so good!
Pure art and science hand in hand! Love seeing the heritage of Cosworth and Aston together.
3:11 The sound
Prius drivers will never understand this
of course, it is a hybrid!!
So is this
Presumably, this engine uses spark plugs as the means of igniting the fuel/air mixture. Pretty amazing when one considers an engine speed of 11,000rpm. I was reading an article the other day about the use of microwaves in place of spark plugs and that there was a 30% increase in power output. Imagine what could happen with that ignition in an engine like this.
Would love to hear it, but he keeps interrupting with stupid noises
WHAT AN ABSOLUTE LEGENDDDDDDD
Henry Catchpole from Carfection reviewed this properly. Go watch that.
Yeah this Jack guy doesn't really know much about cars
What a beautiful sound that engine produces.
I see a lot of comments bemoaning the eventual death of the internal combustion engine as oil becomes scarce and green regulations become ever more restrictive.
I think the future of the internal combustion engine is Hydrogen. Hydrogen will run in any conventional internal combustion engine and runs especially well in engines designed specifically for the fule. They can run up to 15% more efficient than gasoline-powered engines and down to 0 emissions. All this while maintaining the best part, the soundtrack.
You'd be incorrect. The electric way is the one being embraced, not the hydrogen way. You're likely to say goodbye to combustion engines overall.
Koenigsegg: - Hold my beer.
lol on racetrack not even close valkyrie will win
@@friendlymountainguy3475 Now. But again, Koenigsegg: Hold my beer. :D
Keep your LS motor! I'll take one of these!
The most important thing about this engine was not mentioned in this video: The engine is self-supporting and it's the first road engine to be like this. There is no supporting chassis or structure (without the engine front and back wouldn't be connected at all) and it still wheighs only 206kg. This helps to make the overall car lighter (with around 1000kg it is already lighter than anyone else of its competitors) and it also helps to make the bodywork more narrow at the rear, so there is more space for those huge diffusor tunnels.
People need to learn: This car is no fat Bugatti or Koenigsegg. This car is not only about straight line speed. This car is about cornering speed in the first place. 1000hp and 11.000rpm is in fact just a side note of this car.
THIS SHOULD BE 18+
This and the LFAs engine are the best road car engines ever produced
If the engine makes this noise now emagine what kind of noise the exhaust would make!
The problem will be noise rules
Apart from the RR v12 Merlin engine this is amazing
10,000+ RPM 12cyl = instant eargasm...!!! 😍
11000 RPM 😲 .
That sound is orgasmic.
Meanwhile Bugatti had to struggle with 8L W16 and a Quad Turbo and only produces 1500HP... thats 500HP increase only 😂 despite of its extreme complexity...
"500hp only" 🤔😂
The major difference the Bugatti Chiron want to be a luxury car where you can cruise in all the comfort you need and that is impossible with a na engine
@@randylahey3988 0 - 200kmh in under 7 seconds is not "comfortable cruising"... There are similar GTs like the Chiron which are NA and are also very comfortable if needed (Ferrari 812 superfast foe example) 0
@@nik7bkh965 yep but they're not +900hp, high rpm engine are fun but not comfortable that's a fact and that's why Bugatti choose a smooth big turbocharged engine and you don't always to drive crazy and doing 0-200kmh all the time but just drive normally
@@randylahey3988 you probably have never driven a Mustang. The NA V8 is much smoother and more comfortable than most turbo charged engines with similar HP. Cruising with low RPM is literally the Definition of a comfortable ride, and NA engines can do that perfectly fine while Turbocharged engines always need some RPM for their turbos.
Bugatti chose a big turbo charged engine because of its power output and not because it ensures a comfortable ride! 1500hp are not really possible in a NA production car engine, and that's the only reason why Bugatti chose the turbos. They want to deliver maximum HP to go for speed and acceleration records, and not For comfortable travels.
Oh my God.
The sound.
Cosworth did it.
even the captions like it 😂😂 they made it into a music 😂😂
Sweet sound, like a jet engine sound.
? Do you even know what jet engines are?
Turbofan or turbojet sound like that?
Heard the sound and liked the video at once
100000 km and its dead? Yeah sounds BRITISH alright
Im skeptical on the lifespan too!
For essentially a race car engine, that's a crazy long lifespan
drive on with your honda civic....
Nope you fool thats just the test length based on expected maximum useage.
@@runnerbaba Your Honda civic beats this expensive crap 😅
Top Gear could you please show us the engineers? They are the real the real mvp. I'm not an engineer but they get little credit for this marvelous wonder.
damn that sound tho, in indonesian we call it "menggetarkan jiwa" or shaking your soul
Holy Sht they have nailed the F1 engine sound for a car. Finally. Love it.
they didn't nail it, but it's pretty close
Amazing engine controlled by keyboards from the 90s
what an absolute thing of beauty
Your late top gear . Carfection did this a couple of days ago 😋
K
Sounds crazy, crazier than the old F1 V12s. Sounds like a spaceship.
Do you think that...
...WOULD FIT IN MY HONDA?
LOL
Yes.
Well Hondas don't need that engine. Honda has built 50 cc engines with 16 bhp
Now who is this guy, didn't watch one TopGear since the trio left.
Who needs a mercedes engine ?
Robert Lloyd mclaren...
Redbull does, in F1 ;) oh wait, that's pretty much what they have in the AMG One :)
Merc, Pagani, Aston Martin, SsangYong and maybe in the future, even Volvo.
who needs an unreliable engine!!!!
@The Truth at least Aston Martin doesn't put inferior Mercedes engine on Aston Martin Flagship car the DBS
Valkyrie will be one heck of a machine
carfection did it better
A 6.5 v12 that weighs only a touch over the 2.0 4 cylinder i have in my car, that’s some seriously impressive engineering
Will it fit in my Miata?
Very Deep F1 tones with this one.... Need More! Thoroughly teased.
This motor sounds like an electric drill, and heats up like a blast furnace! It probably consumes tons of gasoline!
Yea, but it also has some downsides
You have some badass electric drills then mate
Valkyrie! Named after a legendary motorcycle
LF-A is better tho 🤣🤣🤣
totally agree with you. with that tuned exhaust system the lfa is the f1 killer
Remember this isn’t tuned yet 👏🏻😉
it's exhaust.. this one sounds pure from the engine V12 11.000RPM
alfonsius adidarma
I know, it’s amazing... although they always compress it
With an exhaust it'll sound twice as good as an LFA
According to Gordon Murray, Cosworth is actually way ahead of the game on ICE compared to even Ferrari, but all others are going the hybrid way.
It is not about the HP it is about how economic and practical. Any manufacturer can make it with consequences
Naturally aspirated motors drink tons of fuel!
Economical and practical these are the last two things I want in a hyper car
But this one is supposed to be both. It's why it passes all emissions regs these days and thus also has to have decent economy for what it is. Otherwise it would have been turbocharged like everything else these days...
I cant see any point in a car engine like this. it is a death machine.
@@tdya1 It's only for the Valkyrie, so only 130 odd will be made. All of them will likely sit in a heated garage somewhere only to see light of day a couple times a year or have buyers from Dubai etc!
This is a goddamn F1 engine from the past!!! Loving the car and totally loving this engine!! Cheers!! I just can’t wait for this thing that finally come out and get on the track
can I be the first person to ride it🤺🏆🕹♨️🛣🚀
This is really an increadible peace of enginearing

@@nihalreddy4417 he's getting vantage .
Reminds me of the old 90s V12 F1 cars like the one Schumacher used.
that Melody in the end 🔥🔥🔥
That sound is sick
the exhaust is glowing iv never actually seen that i wonder what would happen with a quad turbo setup :P
Just woke and this was the first thing I watched. Coffee not needed now!!! Damn that sound!!! I likey!!
3:12 orchestra, thank you
The heart of the ultimate English Mobilia i wanna see it work on track!
Those cyliner heads are huge
Cant wait to see this complete car running
I want this. Need to find a fair bit of loose change
Didn’t mention that the engine is also the rear frame of the car, wich makes the weight even more impressive.
Remember in the early 80s when V12s supposed to only spits like 150bhp? Now they're able to spits out 1000bhp
It's good to know Cosworth is still there! They and they still know what are they doing!
Geez, that stirs you up. Wow.
