VALHALLA, AND BEYOND

Aston’s first-ever hybrid model (of many) is the Valhalla with 950PS, 1,000Nm and a 349kmph top speed

The Aston Martin Valhalla concept from 2019 has finally morphed into a production car that is quite far removed from the concept, but is said to be nearly 95 per cent close to finalised. What we have then is a mid-engined, carbon-tubbed Aston Martin supercar that’ll sit below the Valkyrie, and push plug-in hybrid, AMG-sourced twin-turbo V8 power — all 950PS and 1,000Nm of it — to all four wheels via an in-house developed 8-speed DCT that debuts with the Valhalla. It all results in a 0-100kmph run in an expected 2.5s, and a top speed north of 349kmph.
