Limited to just 110 units worldwide, Valour promises to be one of the most sought-after Aston Martins ever produced. The Valour is powered by a twin-turbocharged 5.2-litre V12 engine delivering 715PS and 753 Nm of torque, coupled with a bespoke six-speed manual transmission.

Tuned to provide exhilarating performance and precise handling, the Valour features a mechanical limited-slip differential, a bespoke steering system, adaptive dampers and specially calibrated springs and anti-roll bars for an unfettered driving experience that is engaging as it is, fast.

Aesthetically, Valour showcases Aston Martin's contemporary design language while paying tribute to the iconic V8 Vantage from the 1970s.

Crafted entirely from carbon fibre, the bodywork exudes muscular elegance from every angle. The aerodynamic elements, including a front splitter, fender vents, and a prominent diffuser, enhance stability and create a distinctive design.

Round the back, the Valour features Aston Martin Valkyrie-inspired tail lights and a triple tailpipe exhaust system that produces a sonorous soundtrack.

The two-seater cockpit embodies simplicity and tactile allure. The centrepiece is the manual transmission gear lever, which offers multiple material options such as machined aluminium, titanium, carbon fibre, or walnut for the gearknob.

Aston Martin offers flexibility in tailoring the car's appearance. The Q by Aston Martin service provides the opportunity to design a bespoke livery or select premium materials such as exposed carbon fibre bodywork or 'Johnsons of Elgin' tweed and cashmere fabrics.

The Aston Martin Valour production is due to commence at Aston Martin’s Gaydon Headquarters in Q3 of 2023, with first deliveries scheduled to begin during Q4 2023.
