Aston Martin unveils limited-edition Valen V12 supercar

Aston Martin has unveiled the Valen, a limited-edition supercar produced by its bespoke Q division. The vehicle is identified as the most powerful front-engined production car in the company’s 113-year history.

Limited to only 150 units worldwide, the Valen features a 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12 engine delivering between 838 and 850PS and 1,000Nm of torque. The car can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just over three seconds, reaching a top speed of approximately 344 km/h.

To enhance performance, the Valen utilizes lightweight materials including carbon fiber, aluminum, titanium, and magnesium, resulting in a weight reduction of up to 110kg compared to existing V12 platforms. It is equipped with an eight-speed ZF transmission featuring shift strategies derived from the Vantage GT4 racing program, and includes Sport, Sport+, and Track driving modes. Standard features include 21-inch magnesium wheels, Bilstein DTX semi-active dampers, and a specialized titanium exhaust system.
