Aston Martin Valen is a Limited-Production V12 Performance Coupe
The Aston Martin Valen is a track-focused evolution of the Vanquish developed through the marque's Q bespoke division. Limited to 150 examples worldwide, the coupe features an all-new carbon-fibre body, replacing the traditional rear window with a camera-based rear-view system to accommodate its aerodynamic rear architecture.
Power comes from a 5.2-litre twin-turbocharged V12 producing 838 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque, paired with an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission calibrated using technology derived from the Vantage GT4 race car. The lightweight package sheds 243 pounds compared to the standard Vanquish, enabling a 0–60 mph time of 3.0 seconds and an electronically limited top speed of 214 mph.
The chassis rides on 21-inch magnesium wheels fitted with bespoke Pirelli P Zero R tyres featuring Cyber Tyre technology that communicates real-time grip data to the vehicle's control systems. A titanium quad-exhaust system is integrated into the rear diffuser, while the cabin incorporates 3D-printed components, a steeply angled centre console and a choice of Sports Plus or carbon-fibre bucket seats.
