Aston Martin has just revealed the jaw-dropping Valour: a 705bhp, £1m-plus supercar with a 5.2-litre V12 and a six-speed manual gearbox
They are tucked behind staggeredwidth 21in ‘honeycomb’ alloys – familiar from the Victor and DBS 770 – shod in Michelin Pilot Sport S 5 tyres. The Valour is not solely about brute force. The brake set-up provides a 23kg reduction compared with steel equivalents, the exhaust system is made to a sub-millimetre thickness to save a further 7kg and the bodywork is made entirely from carbonfibre.
The design is a slightly softer take on the brutal Victor but retains its bulging bonnet and abrupt Kamm-tail rear end. The front splitter and arch vents work with the rear windscreen louvres to generate a vortex and flow air neatly over that tail, said Aston Martin. The model serves as “further proof of Aston Martin’s position as the driver’s champion”, said company chairman Lawrence Stroll. Deliveries of the Valour will start between September and December this year.
