Step closer and you’ll notice its bold grille, sleek curves, and a hood crafted from lightweight carbon fiber that screams speed and sophistication. But it’s not just about looks; the Valhalla’s core is built around a strong central tub also made from carbon fiber, ensuring it’s as light as it is tough. And those doors? They swing upwards like something out of a sci-fi dream, making every entrance an event.

Beneath its stylish exterior lies a powerhouse: a twin-turbo V-8 engine borrowed from Mercedes-AMG, coupled with a high-tech plug-in hybrid system. Together, they unleash a staggering 998 horsepower, enough to propel this marvel to a mind-bending top speed of 217 mph. Want more? How about going from 0 to 62 mph in just 2.5 heart-pounding seconds?

And there’s a surprise – the Valhalla can even switch into EV mode, silently gliding along for short distances on electric power alone. It’s a glimpse into the future of high-performance cars, where electrification meets exhilaration in one breathtaking package.

Aston Martin has made big changes, including a new CEO named Tobias Moers, who used to lead Mercedes-AMG. The Valhalla, once teased as the 003 and briefly called AM-RB 003, is now set to be quite different. It’ll feature an engine from AMG and cost in the six figures instead of the seven. You won’t see it on roads until the second half of 2023, probably as a 2024 model. 

The Valhalla is packing a serious punch with its plug-in hybrid engine. It’s got a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8 from Mercedes-AMG at its heart, tuned for top performance with a special flat-plane crank design. Power flows to the rear wheels through an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. But that’s not all – there’s an electric motor for the front wheels and another inside the transmission. Together, they deliver a whopping 998 horsepower.
