Aston Martin Valhalla

Valhalla is Aston Martin's first series-production mid-engine car, and it arrives with a powertrain developed alongside the company's Formula 1 programme. A 4.0 litre twin-turbo V8 works with three electric motors, for a combined 1,064 bhp, with a pure-electric range for short urban journeys. The chassis is carbon, the suspension is active, and the aerodynamics are shaped to keep the car stable without the visual violence of a track special. Production is planned at 999 cars. It sits below the Valkyrie in the range but follows a different brief: usable on a road, credible on a circuit, and recognisably an Aston Martin from the grille alone. It fills the gap between the brand's front-engine GTs and its ultimate hypercar.
