LEGO Technic Aston Martin Aramco AMR25 F1 Car Revealed for Summer 2026
LEGO Technic is adding another Formula 1 giant to the grid this summer, with the reveal of 42240 Aston Martin Aramco AMR25 F1 Car.
Following previous large-scale Technic F1 cars from Ferrari, McLaren and Red Bull, Aston Martin is now joining the line-up with a striking green and black build based on the team’s AMR25 Formula 1 car.
And yes, it is another big one. Very big. The kind of LEGO car that makes you look at your shelf and quietly accept that something else has to go.
LEGO Technic 42240 Aston Martin Aramco AMR25 F1 Car Details
The new Technic set measures an impressive 61cm long, putting it firmly in the same display-focused category as LEGO’s other large Formula 1 builds.
The model recreates the Aston Martin AMR25 in the team’s familiar green and black livery, with a full sheet of stickers used to capture the branding and race-car detailing.
LEGO Technic Aston Martin F1 Car Features and Functions
As you would expect from a large LEGO Technic Formula 1 car, this set is not just about looks.
The 42240 Aston Martin Aramco AMR25 F1 Car includes:
- Front and rear push-rod suspension
- Functional steering
- A drivetrain with working differential
- Two-speed gearbox
- V6 engine detail
- Simulated electric engine
That gives the set a proper Technic feel, rather than simply being a display model with a few panels and a very expensive badge.
The working features should make this one appealing to Technic fans who enjoy the mechanical side of LEGO building, while the Aston Martin branding and Formula 1 connection should help it reach well beyond the usual Technic crowd.
Aston Martin Joins LEGO’s Growing F1 Grid
The Aston Martin AMR25 becomes the latest addition to LEGO Technic’s expanding line-up of large Formula 1 cars.
The range already includes major teams such as Ferrari, McLaren and Red Bull, and Aston Martin now brings a different colour scheme to the collection. That is a good thing too, because there are only so many red, orange and dark blue cars one shelf can take before it starts looking like a very expensive traffic jam.
With this release, LEGO continues to lean heavily into the popularity of Formula 1. The sport has grown massively in recent years, especially among younger fans and collectors, and LEGO clearly sees plenty of mileage left in the partnership.
Is 42240 Aston Martin AMR25 a Good Investment?
From an Investabrick point of view, this is an interesting one.
Large Technic cars can be strong performers, especially when they are tied to major licensed brands. Formula 1, Aston Martin and LEGO Technic is a strong combination on paper. The set also has a distinct colour scheme, which helps it stand out from the rest of the F1 range.
However, investors should be cautious about jumping in at full retail price on day one.
At £199.99 / $229.99 / €229.99, this is a premium set, and Technic vehicles often receive discounts during their retail life. Unless there is a launch gift-with-purchase or limited promotional reason to buy immediately, this may be one to watch for future price drops.
That said, the long-term appeal is clear. Formula 1 fans, Aston Martin collectors and Technic builders all sit within the target market, and the fact that this is part of a wider F1 series could help demand after retirement.
Collectors who already own the Ferrari, McLaren or Red Bull models may also feel the need to complete the grid. And as we know, LEGO completionism is a dangerous and expensive hobby. One minute you are buying one car, the next minute you need a dedicated Formula 1 shelf and a serious conversation with your bank account.
Investabrick Takeaway
42240 Aston Martin Aramco AMR25 F1 Car looks like a strong addition to the LEGO Technic Formula 1 range.
It has a desirable licence, a bold display presence, solid Technic functions and a clear place within an expanding collector-focused series. For builders and F1 fans, it should be a very tempting summer release.
For investors, the best strategy may be patience. This looks like a set with good long-term potential, but the smarter buy will likely come once discounts begin to appear.
At full price, it is a premium collector’s item. At a decent discount, it could become a much more interesting investment candidate.
Either way, Aston Martin has officially joined the LEGO Technic F1 grid — and this one is racing to shelves on July 1, 2026, with preorders available now!
