The British car maker announced on Friday that the highly anticipated Valkyrie coupe has entered full production and the first customer car is now complete, with deliveries planned in the coming weeks.
Like all Aston Martin sports cars, Valkyrie is being built at the marque’s UK headquarters in Gaydon, 145km north-west of here.
A dedicated project delivery team manages the build right through to delivery in a specially commissioned Valkyrie production area.
A team of technicians are hand-building each of the 150 cars, with each Valkyrie taking over 2,000 man hours to create.
Before each Valkyrie is delivered, it is track-tested at the Aston Martin high performance facility at Silverstone where much of the development of the hypercar has taken place.
Boasting a hybrid V12 powertrain developing a maximum power of 1,139hp, the Valkyrie incorporates concepts and technologies taken directly from Formula 1.
"The Valkyrie is born out of the steadfast dedication of a large group of highly skilled engineers and technicians who have worked tirelessly to get Valkyrie to the production stage," said Aston Martin chief executive officer Tobias Moers.
"I’m sure our customers will be delighted with what they have achieved.”
