Aston Martin Valhalla Monaco

Aston Martin presented, for the first time in dynamic action on the circuit of the Monaco Grand Prix, its hybrid supercar Valhalla.

It was Fernando Alonso, two-time F1 world champion and the chief development driver for the Valhalla project, who had the honor of naming the vehicle during this demonstration.

The Valhalla marks an important milestone in the history of the British brand. It is its first production mid-engine supercar and its first plug-in hybrid model. The development of the vehicle has been reinforced by direct collaboration with Aston Martin Performance Technologies, the technical branch of the Aston Martin Aramco F1 team, which specializes in dynamics, aerodynamics, and materials.

Hybridization in the Service of Performance

The car features a hybrid powertrain producing 1,079 horsepower and 1,100 Nm of torque. This system combines a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine developing 828 horsepower with three electric motors generating an additional 251 horsepower. The transmission is provided by a new eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox with an electronic differential. This system allows for acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.5 seconds and an electronically limited top speed of 350 km/h.

While it was expected that Fernando Alonso would have only good things to say about his ride, the Iberian was keen to emphasize that the Valhalla represents a successful synthesis of cutting-edge technology inspired by F1 and authentic driving sensations. Aston Martin’s CEO, Adrian Hallmark, praised it as a key moment in Aston’s rich history with an electrified transition made without sacrificing the brand’s sporting DNA.

Visually, the Valhalla was presented in a “Podium Green” hue inspired by the AMR25 single-seater, accented with Lime Green touches. Produced in only 999 units, it will be delivered to its fortunate customers starting in the second half of 2025.
