FIRST LOOK: Aston Martin Valhalla - 1064bhp, Half-Price Hypercar!

[@TopGear]

Ferrari F80, McLaren W1, or this?

[@azmilkais]

None

[@V.E.N.U.Z.D.O.N.O.A]

McLaren W1

[@SpoiledPrince]

This..

[@somebloke2238]

I'd have the W1 but I'd have any of the holy trinity over any of these

[@bylvs]

This for sure

[@ethanb4ughan]

Between this, and the new Vanquish and Vantage, Aston is back at the top of their game.

[@mahdibhaiya]

Did they ever really fall off?

[@clintonkojro299]

They are so nice. Hopefully, they are reliable even tho You have the money to buy one you have the money to fix it. That being said don't want it in the dealership being fixed. I heard the older models of Vanquish and Vantage had a lot go wrong with them

[@DuongTranFilms]

They make nice cars that everybody loves but no one buys.

[@Goat-vy2bi]

The Valour is nice also

[@Anonymous_0894]

​@@DuongTranFilmsI'm not sure that many people can afford these. But the fact that they exist is nice for enthusiasts.

[@willjackson6522]

Thank god Lawrence bought the company a few years ago. If he hadn’t, some Chinese investment group would have snatched it by now and turned the entire lineup electric.

[@mrjdmtunerboy.1463]

Also Lawrence himself said he want Aston keep produce ice cars.

[@Anonymous_0894]

Lotus.............😞

[@niklaswejedal463]

Worse still: it would be only SUVs...

[@larsstougaard7097]

Or Jaguar 😅

[@youngkingyoungking1481]

*Cough* *cough* *lotus*

[@AymanMakhalfa]

Aston Martin's cars are artwork

[@jansz1589]

To be fair, the car looks wonderful in my opinion. One of the most beautiful cars of current decade. I love that it has that cleanliness, purity and elegance. And the specs, obviously, incredibly impressive.

[@trying_a_new_username]

I think it's the new member to the holy trinity, instead of the Porsche 918's successor

[@ethanb4ughan]

Exactly. an all electric car should not be a part of the Holy trinity

[@F1ll1nTh3Blanks]

Realistically, it's performance won't be as good as those but for a fraction of the cost.. eh, can you really complain..

[@F1ll1nTh3Blanks]

​@ethanb4ughan They aren't even making that car as far as we know it. It was just a concept. If they did and it was better than the others, being part of a trinity would not matter.

[@owencastle7826]

Porsche will do the best as always. They just decided to not release something not ready yet

[@ravan7-9]

Exactly.

[@sidwallace6053]

Once again another thing of beauty and work of art from Aston

[@stem_not_just_science]

These guys are gonna make the whole mythology into a flippin car

[@SmallBlogV8]

Well, only the bits that start with V.

[@Livlifetaistdeth]

Ear defenders...way cooler than noise protecting headphones.

[@Mike-1000]

*I'd pick this out of the bunch*

[@shlace7976]

This looks more like maybe Senna, SF90XX and future Revuolto 'SVJ' competitor but still its impressive

[@Olly-ct9sm]

Performance wise, it's exactly at the level of W1 and F80

[@K-SHABAB]

It Looks So Classy modern elegant at the same time best looking car Ever

[@baronvonhoughton]

That rear is perfection.

[@happycanayjian1582]

I agree, I think it looks great. 👌🏼

[@samuelhoney6461]

This feels like a final chorus before everything goes electric. They've come out with a V12, and a V8 car in the last year, like they are asking people to reconsider

[@metakmoto]

Aston Martin is absolutely incredible! These new super/hypers are absolutely incredible!

[@Radde1Radde]

To me, it looks so much cooler than the Valkyrie! What a car!

[@bushgreen260]

*They should release the original 2019 Valhalla and Vanquish concept designs under different names. The exact same designs, no changes. They looked very cool and unique.*

[@the.real.njolomba]

Let's see what Aston Martin has for us now

[@Jose-je9rt]

Crazy look

[@marcdeboer1280]

Gorgeous car! It's sad that that's not a given anymore these days.

[@KruthikNandan]

ALMADHULLA THE NEXT CAR FROM ASTON MARTIN

[@kineuhansen8629]

crew motorfest and forza horizon 6 take note pleace this is a cool car to have in your games

[@DonLee1980]

That interior looks sick!

[@TheDeadNightTiger]

Half price you say, I'll have two then.

[@austriantruther4648]

The next masterpiece!!

[@matthiaskettner6686]

Woah that forged carbon looks incredible. Beautiful car.

[@MatsPhoto]

Forged carbon Is the absolute ugliest thing you can have in a car, or outside. Only horrible Mansory uses such rubbish

[@bors2908]

Are you one of those Mansory buyers with challenged sight and taste?

[@SirDaus]

It's literally half past midnight in Malaysia 🇲🇾🇲🇾 Let's Go!!!

[@hcmaclean777]

12:40 pm in Nova Scotia

[@zxlrxsyxd]

another fellow malaysian here ✌

[@kasperpetersen6856]

After seeing how hard and violent the Valkyrie is, with it's eardrum busting 130 decibel in the cabin. This is the one to choose. Even though the Engine in the Valkyrie is much more epic. This seems like a more pleasant extreme.

[@karolzurek3407]

I swear Aston is now making all the most beautiful new cars, i love it, my favourite car brand ever!

[@lancesingleton3700]

Also because the other brands are so ugly now like the f80

[@Muttlythedog]

Good job Miles, the best looking Aston ever 👏👏

[@nicksimpson88]

its so beautiful

[@NEWNATURE777]

I guess 1064HP is the new trend now, first the new Corvette ZR1 now the Aston Martin 🤔

[@lancesingleton3700]

I thought the same thing

[@mattmanley7118]

How different from the concept back in 2019. Welcome to Valhalla ❤

[@DiGiDaWgZs]

Someone left a strip of masking tape across the top.

[@drummerdoingstuff5020]

Holy shit! I can’t unsee it now lol

[@mcpoteee]

How much carbon fiber do you want? Aston Martin: Yes

[@Anton-qn1gx]

Sad only 999 better would be 499 per year or something like that

[@spikespike1332]

The prototype looked fantastic

[@Que.96]

gives AMG project one vibes at the rear, Senna for the profile and Valkyrie at the front

[@everkingilllili-_iil5163]

Aston Martin just always makes the most beautiful and timeless cars...

[@rogerpayne5336]

Aston Martin are killing it right now : Valhalla , Vanquish , DB12 , Vantage , DBX 707......This Valhalla for 850k , while no bargain , could be a nice strategy.....PS: I'll take this over : F80 & W1 on looks alone.

[@farishanafiah8461]

I'm going to admit this: the Valhalla looks better than the Valkyrie.

[@delbroox]

I'm quite proud that the spec i picked for an ipothetic Valhalla on Aston's configurator does use a white metallic paint like Miles suggested.

[@BondTheOGYT]

Hypercar for £850k+? Sounds good

[@BondTheOGYT]

Can't wait to see it in person

[@calvinallan2208]

Corvette zr1 😂

[@F1ll1nTh3Blanks]

​@@calvinallan2208 Not a hypercar.

[@chabweezy9905]

@@calvinallan2208 zr1 has a hypercar engine but thats it. basic suspension, poor aero, heavy, less than 500 kg of downforce. great price tho lol

[@Rebourn135]

So glad they scrapped the v6 nonsense! 6 cylinders are for sports cars, not supercars. It's very expensive for the performance, but it's definitely more special than a Revuelto. Probably about on par with the SF90XX in performance, but this looks way sexier.

[@Anonymous_0894]

I wish they made that Vanquish concept too. I feel like smaller, simpler supercars are dying out now.

[@lakeelmpine5351]

When/if Aston's GT cars fail again I think we'll start seeing more of the mid engine stuff from them

[@halow4]

On paper this us a direct competitor to the C8 ZR1 if you look at the numbers for both, similar, weights, power, torque and downforce. The ZR1 should have a higher top speed though

[@perpetualintellectual2026]

This car has a real koenigsegg vibe to it

[@AgravepasmonK]

Designwise, aston is perfect

[@prakashnarismulu3332]

Would love to see Chris Harris take one of these around a race track 😅

[@p5z91]

Aston Martin's designers are the best in the world! Well done to all one more time! 🙌🏼

[@somebloke2238]

Your move, Porsche

[@WeskerXM96E1]

It's awesome to see F1 teams making hypercars. I love the tech etc of these new cars. Can't wait to see a proper review.

[@kimkristensen2816]

Truely beautiful

[@hamdanali2036]

bro said half price hyper car… the P1 costed that much and that was hyper car royalty.

[@sageakporherhe783]

This looks so good and so cheap that there's no reason one wouldn't go for this.

[@user-sg8eh4qj4c]

Absolutely stunning car.

[@ELXABER]

Sexier than the W1 and F80, probably sounds and drivers better. Now they just need to compete the three on the track while Porsche is off building their milk float.

[@jansedlak8505]

Might sound better, but it's definetly not going to drive nearly as good as W1 and the F80.

[@ELXABER]

@@jansedlak8505 I said better, not faster.

[@jansedlak8505]

@@ELXABER I know, but in which way is Valhalla going to drive better?

[@timbardam5878]

they should've made it more posh on the inside like bugatti, outside is beautiful

[@arjunvpillai678]

To be honest, a huge determinant factor for the success of this car will be hinged on this sound. Because a lot of people remember the Porsche Carerra GT or even the 918 by its sound. The success of Revuelto unlike the SF90 is also down to the same. If the air intake does something to your sensory receptors, it will be a nice bonus. Anyway waiting for the real world drive review. And on that note, they were trying to put a decent ring lap time to its time, from what I heard throughout its development. It will be nice if it tries to set something next summer. Will give a nice boost to its reputation.

[@jansedlak8505]

It will sound just like the new CLE V8 prototype that was tested on the Nurburgring. Only thing that people will hear, will be the air and the tire noise.

[@agtsp4144]

It looks way better than the concept car. Well done Aston Martin

[@bitterlifes]

Finally the first aston martin that i like the most!

[@gustavonunes3180]

The most beautiful hypercar since the holy trinity !!

[@kristianspeke1]

What a stunning car

[@Chemzborgor]

I thought this wasnt going to come out, i saw the concept and was amazed but then the total silence made me think it was only going to be a concept, but here it is

[@ebthegt5572]

The automotive equivalent of "too little, too late".

[@dbdz9736]

Love it, Aston should have given it maybe 200/400 more bhp, the W1 with 911hp/ton is in another league altogether and we know McLaren is a serious competitor in this segment.

[@jansedlak8505]

Power isn't everything. Valhalla lacks downforce. W1 produces around 220 kg more downforce at 250kph and F80 produces nearly 1/2 ton more at that speed.

[@alexshagal5474]

One of the most beautiful cars on planet

[@Wiroe]

Dream car contender

[@UKBUILT]

Definitely 😍😮 I'm building my dream supercar 😎 with a V12 👍

[@ジャガーのやつスケ]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="405">6:45</a> How is this concept model made drivable?

[@phachara6608]

People be comparing it to the new F80 and W1 but forget that this car is close to SF90 and Revuelto in term of performances. What is with the hype 🤦‍♂

[@alancobbin]

Bargain Of The Century 👍

[@mody6930]

The FXXK EVO instead F80 🏁🔥

[@rkwjunior2298]

I think this is my favorite Hyper/supercar in a while. Gorgeous looking Zr1 is identical power?

[@drummerdoingstuff5020]

I thought that sounded familiar!

[@popeyepanther4519]

Congrats Aston! I am so happy for the company. Now People! Lets start buying more Aston Martins than Porsches.

[@sgsheff]

Does anyone else get major Lotus Elise GT1 vibes from this car? It's the same proportions and has the same front with the save front scoop. The sides and back are just more elegant. I preferred the overall shape and lines of the concept car done with Red Bull. When I look at this one I can't unsee the Lotus Elise GT1 car. Cool car though

[@ALMX5DP]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="371">6:11</a> what is the purpose of the divorced exhaust outlets? I presume valving for when the vehicle is in normal mode, sending exhaust out the rear but then when switching to track it routes it out the top?

[@TC-lk2ev]

I saw another review and basically there is so much power and backpressure they needed to have more than the top exhausts. They split them cause the top ones look and sound cool, then the bottom ones help with backpressure.

[@ALMX5DP]

@ interesting, and on top of that no pictures or video reviews I’ve seen show the engine and exhaust routing specifically yet. The designer here did talk about thermal management later on but routing all outlets out the top should be a more effective way of managing that. Unless there are bulky considerations like gasoline particulate filters that simply wouldn’t fit atop the engine than could make sense why main outlets bring the exhaust back down from the hot v.

[@blake350z]

I don’t care what anyone says. This is the Winner in the looks department.

[@JBOsurf]

That window wobble at 7.54 did not look good...

[@greendro6410]

This is absolutely beautiful 😊

[@PasinduGimhan-f7i]

The car 🗿 The name 🗿

[@markusstevensakabiginfinit9523]

Just based on the price alone, id go with this rather than the F80 or W1... Maybe not as fast, but your in a hypercar. Great styling

[@disturbed250]

This is better! Never mind the track nonsense that is akward to get in and looks too much. This is like a mini hypercar style that you could still see out on the road. The facelift was certainly a good choice. Looks good! This is certainly the better looking oit of the F80 and W1

[@aymenfadhel1558]

I'd say a Valkyrie is an F80 rival and Valhalla is an SF90xx rival

[@F1ll1nTh3Blanks]

SF90XX rival, well kinda. It's more in-between ergonomically.

[@technom3598]

Valkyrie is in a league of its own. And honestly that's it's problem.

[@powerslider30477]

⁠@@F1ll1nTh3Blanks It's perfect as a sf90 xx stradale rival.

[@chabweezy9905]

f80 cant compete with valk performance wise. price wise maybe

[@gunsandcommissions]

All of these cars look the same. I get it, they're using what works. That doesn't mean they aren't becoming homogenous.

[@lancesingleton3700]

Maybe they've run out of shapes and designs lol

[@pkphilips2]

Far prettier than most of the other "hypercars" including the Koeniseggs, Ferraris, Lamborghinis etc. This could have been the next gen Maclaren F1

[@delbroox]

I still wish that Vanquish Vision concept had become an actual car. But at least we got the Valhalla.

[@stavrosgavrilis1458]

Only thing I would wish they did was put in actual analog gauges instead of using a stuck on screen Otherwise they nailed it!

[@TheASASSI]

Aston Martin is killin' it, while all car manufacturers are competing who's gonna look like Hyundai..

[@adityakrishna6016]

Regular dials on the instrument cluster would have made it look epic

[@UKBUILT]

I am glad they used a V8 instead of a V6 👍

[@RCDiaz-Balart]

If you were to focus solely on aerodynamics you’d end up with a Ferrari and it would be ugly and not appreciated by most people this is actually a beautiful thing

The mesh doesn't help expless heat it actually causes more drag than just having nothing there

@@jansedlak8505 When it comes to road cars, I honestly don't care, dude. I'll take a pretty F80 and sacrifice performance. You're not gonna go hypercar speeds on residential roads anyway.

[@jansedlak8505]

@yammt3148 But if W1 and F80 are designed to deliver much more performance, the why do you compare them to Valhalla?

Compare aspects that are objective not something that's subjective.
