The Aston Martin Valen is a limited-production, two-seat V12 supercar created by Q by Aston Martin. It combines a 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12 producing 850 PS and 1,000 Nm with rear-wheel drive and an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission. Its lightweight carbon-fibre body, aluminium structure, magnesium wheels, semi-active dampers and carbon-ceramic brakes are designed to give the car a sharper, more focused character than Aston Martin’s conventional V12 models. Production is limited to 150 cars worldwide.
