The upcoming Aston Martin Valhalla boasts a hybrid powertrain that allows it to run solely on electric power. It is equipped with a V8 engine that is capable of churning a power output of 998 bhp and can achieve a top speed of 349 km/h. In the electric mode, it can reach a top speed of 128 kmph and has a range of 15 km before the engine engages. Moreover, the Valhalla can accelerate from 0-100 kmph in just 2.5 seconds.

Seeking inspiration from Formula 1, Aston Martin has included aerodynamics to play a crucial role in the Valhalla. Multiple aerodynamic features are included such as a front splitter, rear wing, rear venturi tunnels, a diffuser and a streamlined underbody, resulting in an impressive 600 kg of downforce at 240 km/h. Furthermore, the entire structure of the Valhalla is constructed using extensive carbon fibre to help reduce the weight of the supercar.
