Aston Martin Valhalla

Wednesday, Aug 13, 2025 12:00 AM

Can this new hypercar really offer 1064bhp from a V8 engine and three electric motors yet ‘friendly’ Aston dynamics too? The Valhalla may be an Aston Martin like no other, but it isn’t a supercar like no other.It’s a two-seat, carbonfibre-tubbed coupé, with a mid-mounted turbocharged vee engine supplemented by an electric motor, plus two electric motors driving its front axle.And if that sounds familiar, the likes of the Lamborghini Revuelto, Ferraris F80 and SF90 and even Honda NSX share some shades of this layout. Did the Porsche 918 Spyder do it first? And will the Valhalla do it best? My brief drive of the new supercar/hypercar, as you prefer, to be priced at £850,000 and limited to 999 units when deliveries start next spring, was of a late prototype, with production-ready hardware but software about 85-90% complete.Software sign-off can be left to the very last minute before deliveries these days. And there’s a lot of it to wrap together when you consider how many Valhalla systems need to be tuned into becoming a cohesive driver’s car. So let’s begin.
