Valhalla: 1,068 hp hybrid

Aston Martin’s Valhalla is a mid‑engined plug‑in hybrid producing roughly 1,064–1,068 hp with a three‑motor hybrid system anchored by a twin‑turbo V8 and an F1‑derived carbon‑fiber chassis — reviewers call it 'track lunacy' that still works on the road. (caranddriver.com) (topgear.com)

Aston Martin confirmed Valhalla will be a strictly limited run of 999 cars, with series production scheduled to start in Q2 2025 after final validation testing. (media.astonmartin.com) Final validation work for the model took place at IDIADA in Spain and on UK roads, and Aston named Gaydon, UK as the marque location associated with the programme. (media.astonmartin.com) List pricing begins in the U.K. at about £850,000, putting retail in the roughly one‑million‑dollar bracket once options and regional pricing are factored. (topgear.com) Aston quotes a 0–62 mph time of 2.5 seconds and an electronically limited maximum speed of 217 mph for the production Valhalla. (astonmartin.com) The car uses a roughly 6.1‑kWh high‑performance battery that yields about 8.7–9 miles (14 km) of pure electric range and a pure‑EV top speed in the ~80–87 mph range. (auto-data.net) An all‑new 8‑speed dual‑clutch transmission for Valhalla integrates a rear e‑motor used to start the engine, charge the high‑voltage battery, improve gear synchronisation and provide torque‑fill. (astonmartin.com) Aston’s active aerodynamic package is claimed to produce roughly 600 kg of downforce at higher speeds and includes drag‑reduction elements for top‑speed runs. (fastestlaps.com)
