The Aston Martin AMB 001 Pro has been introduced as the follow-up to the original AMB 001 from three years ago. It designed by Aston Martin and engineered by Brough Superior, which will also be responsible for production.
The new superbike has an even more aggressive stance than its predecessor, with pronounced aero components like the new front spoiler, side wings, and rear fin. These additions are said to increase downforce and improve airflow.
A new feature for this year's model is the combination of Aston Martin's Verdant Jade shade with Photon Lime accents, satin-finished carbon fiber, and black Cerakote engine and suspension systems. This is the only available option for the AMB 001 Pro which also wears from the ultra-lightweight Aston Martin "lacewing" badge that was originally developed for the Valkyrie. It is 99.4% lighter than the regular enamel emblem.

The 997cc twin-cylinder engine with a crankcase machined from solid billet aluminum features a new cylinder design with wet cylinder liners for improved cooling. It produces an impressive 225 hp (168 kW / 228 PS), a 25% increase over its predecessor's 180 hp (134 kW / 182 PS). The weight-to-power ratio of 1.28 hp/kg (386 pounds) is combined with only a dry weight of 175 kg, raising it to the level of an F1 race vehicle.
The ABM 001 Pro will be hand-built in a limited run of only 88 units at the Brough Superior factory in Toulouse, France. This is fewer than the 100 units of its $120k predecessor. The companies have started taking orders for the superbike, with deliveries expected to begin in late 2023.
