Aston Martin introduces Valen, the world's most powerful front-engined V12 supercar
Aston Martin has unveiled the Valen, a bespoke V12 supercar that holds the title of the most powerful front-engined production car ever manufactured by the firm. Produced under the ultra-exclusive Q brand, the Valen features a twin-turbocharged 5.2-liter V12 engine producing 838 to 850 horsepower, depending on the source. It achieves a top speed of 214 mph and accelerates from zero to 62 mph in approximately 3.0 to 3.1 seconds. The vehicle is engineered for extreme performance and weight reduction, featuring a full-carbon fiber body that saves up to 110kg compared to the core V12 platform. It utilizes an eight-speed ZF transmission and a titanium exhaust system designed to be 50 percent louder than the Vanquish. The interior features a slim center console and a choice of Sports Plus seats or carbon buckets. Production is strictly limited to 150 units, with the first deliveries scheduled for the second quarter of 2027. The car is expected to start at a price of approximately $2,000,000 before bespoke options.
