Powertrain & Performance

At its core lies a bespoke 4.0-liter twin-turbo flat-plane crank V8 engine paired with three electric motors, generating a combined 1,079 PS (1,064 hp) and 1,100 Nm of torque. The hybrid system enables all-wheel drive, torque vectoring, and an electric-only mode for urban driving. Aston Martin claims a 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) sprint in 2.5 seconds and a top speed of 217 mph (350 km/h), electronically limited.

Advanced Engineering

Derived from Aston Martin’s F1 partnership, the Valhalla features active aerodynamics, including a drag reduction system (DRS) and an air brake generating 600 kg of downforce. Its carbon fiber monocoque chassis, pushrod front suspension, and adaptive dampers ensure track-focused agility, while carbon-ceramic brakes and regenerative braking enhance stopping power.

Final Validation

Development driver Darren Turner, a three-time Le Mans winner, is fine-tuning dynamics at Spain’s IDIADA proving ground and UK roads. Key focus areas include steering calibration, thermal brake performance, and damper settings for road compliance. Prototypes in Podium Green, Verdant Jade, and Satin Scintilla Silver showcase the car’s aggressive styling, complete with dihedral doors and an active rear wing.

Market Position & Availability

Priced around $1 million, the Valhalla offers exclusivity with its limited production run. Deliveries begin in late 2025, targeting enthusiasts seeking a bridge between Aston’s Valkyrie hypercar and more mainstream models. With its F1-inspired tech and hybrid prowess, the Valhalla signals a bold new chapter for Aston Martin’s performance legacy.
