The incredible Aston Martin Valhalla supercar prototype might be a glimpse into the future of the company.

The British car manufacturer is struggling, having recently sold its 4.6 percent stake in the F1 team that bears its name, as it looks to shore up its finances.

But, despite the problems, the upcoming Valhalla, revealed earlier in 2025, might be the saviour that Aston Martin is so desperate for.

This incredible supercar continues on from the Valkyrie, unleashing another 1,000+hp monster onto the roads, and its prototype has been out and about on test.

How much power is the Aston Martin Valhalla packing?

There is no denying that the Valhalla is packing a serious amount of power under the hood.

The supercar has a Mercedes-AMG flat-plane-crank 4.0-liter V8 powering it.

With massive turbochargers, the incredible car makes 1,064hp, with 817hp of that coming from the V8 alone.

The rest comes from three electric motors, making this a monster hybrid supercar.

Two of the motors are on the front axle of the car, with the other integrating with the eight-speed dual-clutch transmission.

It is no surprise then that the Valhalla has a top speed of 217mph.

In effect, like the Valkyrie, the Valhalla is a race car for the road, drawing inspiration from Formula 1.

Ironically, it was at the 2025 Monaco Grand Prix that it made its debut, with Fernando Alonso at the wheel.

This hybrid supercar has been long in the making.

It is fair to say that Aston Martin has been working on the Valhalla for some time.

The British company teased it in 2019, as the 003 concept, and production will finally begin in 2025.

As you might expect, the car has a lot of active aerodynamics to help keep it hunkered to the ground.

In true supercar fashion, the Valhalla is also light, helping it to retain race-car-like agility in the corners.

The British company has said it plans on building 999 examples of the car, which will cost around $1 million.

A bonus for those in the United States is that, thanks to less strict emissions rules, it should get a louder exhaust than in Europe.

Deliveries for the supercar should begin by 2026.

If the appetite is there, Aston Martin might even produce an open-top version of the Valhalla as well.
